Dave Altavilla offers commentary on Nvidia's (NVDA) earnings minutes following the report. He says the company's record quarter shows that Nvidia is "powering" the AI trade on all fronts and helps ease fears of massive CapEx spending in hyperscalers like Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), and Meta Platforms (META). Dave also explains why he doesn't see margin compression in the cards for Nvidia. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

The "SaaS-pocalypse" has arguments for and against it, says Ali Mogharabi. On the case justifying the sell-off, he notes new AI offerings causing growth outlook concerns that generate enough of a structural shift to rattle software's outlook. Ali makes another case for the sell-off being overdone in cybersecurity stocks like CrowdStrike (CRWD) and defense-centric companies. Ali also weighs on the risks posed to market giants Amazon (AMZN) and Microsoft (MSFT). ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Tariffs could go “one of two ways,” says Dale Smothers, arguing that Trump will continue to try to impose similar tariffs after the Supreme Court decision. This could lead to a pause or even a pullback in markets. If the tariffs unwind and force the government to repay tariffs, he calls it essentially a “tax return for the American consumer” that could boost economic activity. He is overweight Nvidia (NVDA) for the long-term and is “buying ahead of earnings.” He thinks Nvidia is “priced for proof” and if they can beat, the market will react “favorably.” Dale also likes Amazon (AMZN). ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Ted Thatcher discusses market unease and the state of the broad economy. He's hopeful for the year still, breaking down the latest GDP report and what he thinks investors are missing. Ted covers why he thinks Amazon (AMZN) is an appealing buy here, arguing that the opportunity for AWS within AI is underappreciated, and why it can hit the “singularity” in the robotics revolution first.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Jed Ellerbroek highlights Comfort Systems (FIX) earnings as a sign that AI spending remains “feverish.” His top picks include Amazon (AMZN), which he thinks will benefit from tariffs being struck down on the retail side while their tech side remains strong. HALO, or heavy assets low obsolescence companies, are what investors are looking for in a jittery market. Jed explains how he's sorting winners from losers in the software sector. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Jan Rogers Kniffen and Amanda Lai dig into Walmart (WMT) earnings, with Jan calling it the “best retailer in the country” that is performing “extraordinarily well.” He thinks it performed “flawlessly” under its last CEO. Amanda notes that they reported basically in-line and points out that their market cap crossed $1T. Amazon (AMZN) finally ranked ahead of Walmart on sales, but she calls their business mix fundamentally different and thinks it has strong fundamentals.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Sucharita Kodali calls Walmart's (WMT) earnings “incredible” for a business of this size and maturity. “They're not only growing share but they're executing really, really well.” She believes they're benefitting from both ends of the K-shaped economy, possibly taking business from malls or other merchants. She thinks its rivalry with Amazon (AMZN) will continue to be a big story as AMZN beat WMT on sales for the first time. Its ad business makes it one of the biggest media companies in the U.S., she argues.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In this daily editorial, we are joined by Joel Elconin, co-host of the PreMarket Prep Show and founder of the Stock Trader Network. As the market navigates a complex period of tech underperformance and shifting investor sentiment, Joel breaks down why the "Magnificent Seven" are losing steam and where the smart money is rotating to start 2026. Key Discussion Points: The Great Rotation Beneath the Surface: While major indices remain near their highs, a significant internal shift is occurring as investors move away from mega-cap tech and into value-oriented sectors that prioritize cash flow and tangible goods. The AI Spending Pivot: Massive capital expenditures by tech giants are no longer being rewarded by the market; instead, investors are looking for "picks and shovels" plays in hardware and infrastructure. Energy and Utility Resurgence: The power requirements for AI data centers are driving a new wave of interest in energy producers and traditional utilities, providing a strong floor for these sectors. A New Trend in Crude Oil: After years of pressure, crude oil and energy ETFs are showing technical signs of a major turn, supported by both value-seeking investors and rising industrial demand. Earnings Season Challenges: The "high bar" set for tech companies is leading to sell-offs even on earnings beats, as guidance fails to justify lofty valuations compared to more stable retail and staple stocks.

Kevin Horner's Technical Tuesday covers the S&P 500 (SPX), Amazon (AMZN), and Amgen (AMGN). On the SPX, he looks at support and resistance levels, and warns that if it breaks down, it could move fast. Amazon is “by no means in a bullish pattern,” but he marks the location of its pullback, calling the $198 level “very interesting.” Amgen is looking to break out of a bull flag, with consolidation over the past week or so. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

"The market is getting a little more anxious" when it comes to the AI trade, says David Nicholson. He believes the big sell-offs in tech giants like Amazon (AMZN) are overdone and caused by weakening market sentiment on ROI expectations. David makes the case as to why the company's AWS cloud remains a poised winner. He later turns other corners in the tech space by previewing Nvidia's earnings and AI's SaaS impact. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

"What we see is clear," says Cory Johnson, Big Tech will spend big on CapEx. He urges investors to follow the money, pointing to chipmakers, networking, and data centers as some of the biggest beneficiaries. Cory adds that risk comes with hyperscalers like Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOGL), and Amazon (AMZN) not knowing the scope of AI's future impact. One corner of the tech trade he sees as a continuing winner: memory chips like Micron (MU). ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Ted Thatcher says the market is struggling to find firm footing as we go through the largest technological buildout in human history. Markets have to digest the huge price tags, he continues, but the Street has reason to question that spend. He thinks Meta Platforms (META) is the best at implementing AI, citing higher ad impressions in its latest report. Ted also covers the outlook for Amazon (AMZN) and Alphabet (GOOGL), as well as what he thinks is next for SaaS companies threatened by AI.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Jason Child, CFO of Arm Holdings (ARM), talks about the company's recent earnings which he says got a boost from mega caps increasing CapEx spending. He explains how Mag 7 giants like Nvidia (NVDA) and Amazon (AMZN) use the company's tech in different ways. As for Arm's licensing revenue miss, Jason reassured investors the current quarter will show a reacceleration. He later notes how agentic AI will offer new opportunity for Arm in 2026. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

The sustainability of Friday's bounce remains in question. Kevin Green suggests the S&P 500 (SPX) is finding temporary support at its 100-day moving average, though elevated volatility and new sellers entering the market indicate a "dead cat bounce" remains a distinct possibility. On the earnings front, Amazon (AMZN) shares experienced volatility following its massive CapEx forecast of $200 billion by 2026. Later, KG examines the crypto space, as Bitcoin (BTC) attempts to defend critical support levels near $55,000. Kevin notes that while the asset has recently mirrored the price action of software stocks, it continues to show signs of decoupling from the broader U.S. equity market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Kevin Hincks turns to what he considers a "vital" trading session for Friday. Amazon (AMZN) and Alphabet's (GOOGL) massive CapEx projection for 2026 spooked investors and accelerated an already intense week of selling. Kevin's advice: watch the price action throughout Friday, as a rebound can signal a resurgence in the AI trade. Bitcoin and gold also set the foundation for gains ahead of the opening bell. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Rob Deichert and Arun Sundaram walk through Amazon (AMZN) earnings. Arun highlights AWS growth acceleration, which was a “big positive,” but the shock was the $200 billion capex announcement. He thinks the stock will settle as investors realize that Amazon will monetize this spending “as fast as it possibly can.” Rob says there's still “tons of upside” in their ad business. He is also bullish on its capex spending, and notes that he “tends not to bet against Amazon.”======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

The "Monster" is back in the spotlight! On this episode of The Hot Options Report, host Mark Longo breaks down an explosive session dominated by MicroStrategy (MSTR) and Amazon (AMZN) earnings. As Bitcoin slips below $67k, we analyze the aggressive deleveraging in MSTR options and the surge in put activity. Meanwhile, we look at the wreckage in Amazon as investors weigh record revenue against a staggering $200B AI capex forecast for 2026. We dive deep into the Top 10 most active names, including: The MSTR Meltdown: With Bitcoin testing the $65k level, we track the massive volume in MSTR weekly puts and the "forced deleveraging" hitting the tape. AMZN's Cloud Divergence: AWS is growing at 24%, but the stock is tumbling 9% after-hours. Is the AI spend too high for the Street to stomach? Alphabet (GOOGL) & The VIX: Tech rotation intensifies as the "fear gauge" spikes 13%. Chip Sector Fallout: Qualcomm (QCOM) and Arm (ARM) lead the semiconductor slide—we look at the protective put spreads catching fire. Whether you're looking for a hedge or trading the volatility, we show you exactly where the "big paper" is landing today. For more options data, go to TheHotOptionsReport.com.
Charlie O'Shea previews Amazon (AMZN) earnings and discusses the high bar the Street has set. Amazon's going to have to “hold the line on margins” on the retail side, which may be difficult because it tends to make its money from discounting, he argues. He's incredibly interested in the results this quarter. He lays out spending expectations for AWS, as well as what's riding on their advertising business. “The company's incredibly opaque,” he adds.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Dryden Pence believes fiscal policy, monetary policy, and industrial policy are all aligning to be “highly stimulative going forward.” He thinks the market will continue to climb and broaden, though the Mag 7 may still lead. He notes that so far earnings have been constructive in 4Q. The nomination of Kevin Warsh to Fed Chair puts another adult in the room, Dryden says.

Ed Butowsky breaks down UPS Inc. (UPS) earnings, saying they're doing a “brilliant job of re-engineering themselves.” While the company is contracting a little, including ending its work with Amazon (AMZN), “bigger is not always better.” He notes how robot workers are beginning to outnumber human workers in some places, and how that relates to job cuts and restructuring. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
“All the market wants right now is stability and consistency,” says Ted Thatcher, but volatility continues. He argues that Americans' economic outlook is largely based on their ability to access credit and discusses GDP and earnings potential. Key opportunities for investors include “bottlenecks” like Iren (IREN), along with silver and Amazon (AMZN). Iren has recently made several major deals with the Mag 7 and he thinks it is well-placed in the A.I. environment. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Angelo Zino sees Meta Platforms (META) moving the most off this week's round of Mag 7 earnings. He sees the stock on the cheaper side as it trades under 20-times earnings, though Shay Boloor warns the company needs to do more to diversify AI prospects. Though the company doesn't report this week, Shay's Mag 7 earnings pick is Amazon (AMZN) as he sees tremendous upside with AWS. Both Shay and Angelo like Alphabet's (GOOGL) Google Cloud but admit the stock has the "highest bar" to jump. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

The "Greenland Effect" took hold of the tape this Tuesday as geopolitical friction sent the markets into a sea of red. In this episode of The Hot Options Report, host Mark Longo analyzes a high-stakes session where safe-haven scrambles and tariff threats dominated the flow. While the top 10 required nearly half a million contracts just to break in, the real story was the massive retreat in semi-conductors and tech giants. Inside the Top 10 Options Breakdown: Nvidia (NVDA): The undisputed king puts up exactly 2.00 million contracts as trade war fears drive a 4.5% slide. Are traders loading up on the $180 calls for a late-week bounce? Netflix (NFLX): "Rolling the bones" ahead of earnings. We track the massive 100-strike call volume and the immediate $4 after-hours drop following the bell. Tesla (TSLA): A rough 4.2% haircut. We analyze the heavy activity in the now-in-the-money 425 puts as the 500 level fades into the rearview. The "Greenland" Laggards: Why Apple (AAPL) and Amazon (AMZN) faced a straight drumming, while Micron (MU) and AMD briefly managed to find some green on the screen. Intel (INTC): A surprise move in the March $55 calls—is paper looking for a long-term overwrite or a massive recovery breakout? Resources: Get more options data: TheHotOptionsReport.com
The options tape was lighting up on Wednesday, January 21, 2026, as the market clawed back from a bruising session. Tech roared back to life, led by a historic run in Intel (INTC) and a massive upside move in AMD. Mark Longo breaks down the top 10 most active names and the "Hot Options" driving the flow. On Today's Report: The Semiconductor Warpath: Micron (MU) continues its rampage, closing up 6.6% as traders pile into the 400 calls. Intel's Epic Run: INTC surges nearly 12% to close at $54.25. We look at the "outlandish" March 60 calls that aren't looking so crazy anymore. AMD Rocking: Up nearly 8% today, AMD put up 1.1 million contracts. Are the 250 calls too rich for your blood? The Tesla Appropriate Strike: TSLA climbs back over $430 on the heels of Greenland headlines. We look at the massive paper in the 420 calls. Nvidia Retakes the Crown: NVDA is back at #1 with 2.38 million contracts. Will the 185s hold through the end of the week?

Matt Britton thinks OpenAI's ad moves could reshape the entire industry. Meta Platforms (META) and Alphabet (GOOGL) are a duopoly in the ad space, with Amazon (AMZN) the likeliest retail destination, he says. However, ChatGPT's ad model could break up the entire space. AI models' paid user base also allows them to have a more “balanced” approach to ads because it's not their entire revenue stream, he argues.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Phil Palumbo believes tech is here to stay, just keep beaten-up names in mind.

That said, Phil still likes Amazon (AMZN) due to its high margins and global moat. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Jay Hatfield wants the 10-year yield to fall below 4%, which he said would mean the Fed cuts rates below 3%. He had a 7,000 target on the SPX for 2025, and has an 8,000 target for 2026, arguing that AI has to carry the market higher. “Tech's going to do well,” he says, highlighting names like Amazon (AMZN) and Marvell (MRVL) and eschewing the really high multiples. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.
