Nvidia's (NVDA) gigantic earnings report showed a beat in EPS, though data center revenue came slightly under the mark compared to Wall Street's estimates. Zeno Mercer says the report signals that it's now time to look "beyond" data centers, even as hyperscalers show demand through capex spending upwards of $100 billion. He talks about companies like AMD Inc. (AMD) and TSMC (TSM) as other companies investors should watch as potential new leaders in the A.I. space. He also talks about the evolving tech that can shape the landscape, like autonomous vehicles and robotics.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Stocks moved higher on Wednesday's session ahead of Nvidia's (NVDA) earnings that is expected to move markets Thursday. That report showed an EPS beat but a miss in data center revenue, even though the quarterly figure tapped a whooping $41.1 billion. Snowflake (SNOW) also rallied big after hours when it showed promising growth. CrowdStrike (CRWD) was the big laggard, selling off as it announced an acquisition of Onum. Marley Kayden takes investors through a pivotal earnings day on Wall Street.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Derek Moore and Shane Skinner geek out on the second derivative option Greek Vanna to understand how implied volatility changes cause buying or selling in markets. Plus, does Powell and the Fed not care about inflation anymore? Later, examine the post-election year seasonality to see if we are entering a historically weak period. All that plus what happens historically in markets when the fed has long period between rate cuts, interest rate probabilities, how to understand why stocks go up or down (return attribution).    What is Options Vanna? Why do implied volatility changes cause buying and selling in markets? How do option market makers hedge or offset option orders? Understanding how price to forward earnings (the multiple) and EPS estimates drive price What type of environment are we in currently? The Fed's Jerome Powell Jackson Hole speech hints at dropping 2% inflation target Did the Federal Reserve just give the ‘all clear' for a rate cut turning dovish? Why earnings estimates drive price in the S&P 500 index How implied volatility changes affect an option's Delta How VIX Spikes and subsequent drop causes additional buyers to come in What historically happens August to October from a post-election seasonal standpoint?

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1127: We're diving into major tariff relief for EU carmakers, Sonic Automotive's EchoPark outpacing expectations, and how generative AI is rewriting the rules for online retail traffic. Show Notes with links:The automotive industry is watching closely as the U.S. and EU hammer out a framework deal that could bring massive tariff relief for European automaker. The fine print could mean big savings and new market access.The EU and U.S. announced a new trade framework aiming to reduce U.S. auto tariffs from 27.5% to 15%.Relief would be retroactive to August 1 if the EU introduces enabling legislation this month.In exchange, the EU pledged to cut tariffs on U.S. industrial goods and increase access for American agricultural products.The deal may expand to include mutual recognition of auto safety standards and influence future U.S. agreements with Japan and South Korea.EU Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic emphasized urgency: “It is the European Commission's firm intention to make proposals by the end of this month.”Sonic Automotive just dropped its Q2 2025 earnings, and while a hefty impairment charge dented the bottom line, EchoPark's performance made sure the story stayed bullish.Total revenue reached a record $3.7B, up 6% YoY.Despite a $172.4M impairment charge, adjusted EPS surged 49% to $2.19, beating expectations.EchoPark led the charge with $62.1M in gross profit (+22%) and a 679% increase in adjusted segment income.Segment income rose from $3.9M to $11.7M — a 200% leap.“EchoPark is just on fire,” said Sonic President Jeff Dyke.Adobe reports a massive 4,700% YoY increase in U.S. retail site traffic driven by generative AI platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini — a clear signal that AI is transforming the online shopping journey.Traffic from gen-AI sources has grown monthly since the 2024 holiday season.90% of users trust gen-AI recommendations; bounce rates are down 27%.Visits from AI referrals are 10% more engaged, with 32% longer durations.The conversion gap between AI and non-AI traffic has shrunk from 49% in January to 23% in July.“It's allowing a very optimized, urgent, efficient journey,” said Adobe's Vivek Pandya.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier1:35 Next week, Paul and Erroll Bomar III will be at NAMAD next week2:38 EU-US Finalizing New Trade Deal4:35 EchoPark Boosts Sonic's Q2 Earnings6:52 4700% Increase In Retail Traffic From GenAI SitesJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this encore episode, we detail the oral-gut microbiota axis, detailing the oral microbiome and its relationship with the intestinal microbiome. We discuss the development of oral biofilm, the transition from plaque to dental calculus, and potential impacts of oral dysbiosis, while highlighting intestinal health and focusing on Fusobacterium nucleatum. Topics:1. Overview of the Oral Microbiome and the Oral-Gut Axis - The oral cavity and the gut: microbially dense sites. - Anatomically distinct but connected and capable of influencing each other. - The oral microbiome. - Microbial distribution: topography and chemistry of oral surfaces. 2. Oral Cavity Anatomy and Microenvironments - The vestibule and oral cavity proper. - Lined by oral mucosa, which varies in structure. - Unique ecological niches that support different microbial populations. 3. Tooth Structure and Relevance to Microbial Colonization - Teeth are embedded in the alveolar processes of the maxilla and mandible. - Tooth structure. - Long-term microbial colonization and biofilm development. 4. Biofilm / Dental Plaque Development - Biofilm begins with the formation of the acquired pellicle.- Pioneer species secreting extracellular polymeric substances (EPS).- Secondary colonizers coaggregate.- Coaggregation is species-specific.- Example.- Aerobes can lower local oxygen levels, creating micro anaerobic niches that support obligate anaerobes. 5. Maturation of the Biofilm  - Biofilm composition shifting to anaerobic, proteolytic species such as P. gingivalis. - F. nucleatum: a bridge species. 6. Mineralization and Formation of Dental Calculus - Mineralization, calcium and phosphate deposition. - Dental calculus. 7. Oral Dysbiosis  - An imbalance in the oral microbial community. - Potential signs and symptoms. - Halitosis, swollen or bleeding gums, tooth sensitivity. 8. Oral-Gut Axis and Systemic Implications - Physical, chemical, biochemical, and immunological barriers aid in preventing oral bacteria from colonizing the gut. - Oral bacteria can potentially impact intestinal health. -  F. nucleatum and IBD. 9. Oral Microbiome Testing10.

 En el episodio de hoy de VG Daily, Eugenio Garibay y Andre Dos Santos arrancan desmenuzando las minutas de la Fed publicadas el 20 de agosto con un comité que no ve un alivio inflacionario y se mantiene el sesgo cauteloso ante el traspaso de aranceles, con la mirada puesta en septiembre y en Jackson Hole para calibrar timing y magnitud del inicio de ciclo. Desde ahí trazan las implicaciones para comparar con Walmart en donde muestran un trimestre de ventas y tráfico sólidos, e-commerce y retail media en aceleración, pero un EPS ajustado que flojea. Cierran con la lectura cruzada, un consumidor que prioriza esenciales, discrecional más frágil y el riesgo “tarifario” como ruido de segundo semestre.

The big things you need to know:First, a better longer-term EPS outlook and more resilient operating margin forecasts help explain the recent outperformance of mega cap growth stocks and growth-oriented sectorsSecond, Small Caps recently saw a brief/mild outperformance pop on mounting Fed cut optimism, but we remain neutral on Small Caps given elevated valuations and below-average consensus GDP expectations.Third, mixed vibes to end the summer make us question whether the sentiment recovery that has powered US stocks may soon hit a speed bump.

Jesse Daniel Edwards is a songwriter from California who now makes his home in Nashville. Edwards has lived an incredible life. He has gone from growing up without television or internet, to leaving home at 16, to tour managing for the likes of Jason Isbell, Lucinda Williams, and Morrissey(!) and making unique, fascinating records. This year he has released not one, not two, but three wonderful collections of songs- two EPs and a full length. I highly recommend all three. This conversation went in so many different directions, y'all. I am grateful for Jesse as a thought partner and for the art he shares with the world. Everyone, it is my great honor to present my conversation with Jesse Daniel Edwards.

On today's episode, I talk to musician Laura Ballance. Originally from Charlotte, North Carolina, Laura moved around a fair amount as a child, eventually ending up in Chapel Hill for college where she met Mac McCaughan, who convinced her to be in a band. That band is Superchunk, who over the last 36 years have released twelve albums, numerous EPs, compilations and live albums and created one of the most lasting legacies in indie rock. In addition to Superchunk, Laura co-founded, along with Mac, Merge Records, one of the most well-known and well-liked indie labels. Speaking of both Merge and Superchunk, their latest album, the very appropriate -for-2025-named Songs in the Key of Yikes is out next Friday, and I cannot wait!

Gerard Langley & Chris Sharp in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://www.theblueaeroplanes.com/ The Blue Aeroplanes first performed under that name at the King Street Art Gallery in Bristol in 1981. They consisted mainly of former members of Art Objects, with the addition of Nick Jacobs, former guitarist and vocalist of Southampton band the Exploding Seagulls. The Blue Aeroplanes' first album, Bop Art was released on their own Party Records in 1984, and was rapidly picked up by the Abstract (US) and Fire (UK) labels. It contained material that had been considered as a follow-up to Art Objects' only album, Bagpipe Music. Gerard Langley's largely spoken poetic lyrics were combined with a heavily guitar-centric band that went on to release Tolerance (1985) and Spitting Out Miracles (1987) and several singles and EPs whose B-sides were brought together in the compilation FriendLoverPlane (1988), all on the Fire label.

Dan Derwin, Road Dan, and David Howell break down Netflix Vol. 5, Eps. 1 & 2 — Park Bench Murders and My Paranormal Partner! BECKY LIVES!!!

Kevin Green kicks off Morning Movers with Sam Vadas to discuss a couple tech stock earnings. For Supermicro (SMCI), shares plummeted after a revenue and EPS miss, with tariffs and AI demand concerns weighing on the company's guidance. Meanwhile, AMD's report was a mixed bag, with a beat on revenue but a miss on adjusted earnings per share due in large part to China sales restrictions. Despite this, the company's CPU business is expected to see a refresh in 2026, which could be a catalyst for growth. KG adds the VIX to his watch list as it tests the 20 level, saying volatility could be a friend to traders, but caution is advised as the market navigates a busy earnings docket.======== 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

AMD Inc. (AMD) posted a revenue beat and in-line EPS, along with record free cash flow. It still wasn't enough to wow investors. Jenny Horne explains why shares are sliding to the downside and how the company currently stands against Nvidia (NVDA). As for Supermicro (SMCI), Jenny says its earnings sell-off is much clearer due after its miss and guidance cut.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Rivian (RIVN) 2Q earnings revealed an EPS miss but a slight beat on revenue expectations. The U.S. EV company produced just 5.9k vehicles in its 2Q, with deliveries of 10.6k. David Nicholson joins Marley Kayden to dive into the report from Rivian. He says the company needs to show how it competes in the global market, not just the U.S. market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Caterpillar (CAT) reported a revenue beat in its 2Q earnings figures, but fell shy of EPS top line expectations. Ben Watson examines the chart patterns formulating after the report. He uses the MACD study on a 5-day, 5-minute timeframe that shows near-term support around $421 and a slight reversal from initial weakness. On a 1-year timeframe, he points to the correlation to Copper futures (/HG) as something to watch.======== 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

Marley Kayden takes investors through the morning's biggest movers, which included Hims & Hers (HIMS) sliding more than 10% after its earnings. Its revenue miss led to the selling action despite the company expanding its footprint overseas. Meanwhile, Pfizer (PFE) rallied after it beat and raised EPS guidance for 2025. Marley explains how Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta Platforms (META) played a role in Bank of America's big price target raise on Oracle (ORCL).======== 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 – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

AI adoption, dollar weakness and tax savings from the Big Beautiful Bill are some of the factors boosting our CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson's confidence in U.S. stocks.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley's CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist. Today on the podcast I will discuss what's driving my optimism on stocks. It's Tuesday, July 29th at 11:30am in New York. So, let's get after it. Over the past few weeks, I have been leaning more toward our bull case of 7200 for the S&P 500 by the middle of next year. This view is largely based on a more resilient earnings and cash flow backdrop than anticipated. The drivers are numerous and include positive operating leverage, AI adoption, dollar weakness, cash tax savings from the Big Beautiful Bill, and easy growth comparisons and pent-up demand for many sectors in the market. While many are still focused on tariffs as a headwind to growth, our analysis shows that tariff cost exposures for S&P 500 industry groups is fairly contained given the countries in scope and the exemptions that are still in place from the USMCA. Meanwhile, deals are being signed with our largest trading partners like Japan and Europe that appear favorable to the U.S. Due to the lack of pricing power, the main area of risk in the stock market from tariffs is consumer goods; and that's why we remain underweight that sector. However, the main tariff takeaway for investors is that the rate of change on policy uncertainty peaked in early April. This is the primary reason why earnings guidance bottomed in April as evidenced by the significant inflection higher in earnings revisions breadth—the key fundamental factor that we have been focused on. Of course, the near-term set up is not without risks. These include still high long-term interest rates, tariff-related inflation and potential margin pressure. As a result, a correction is possible during the seasonally weak third quarter, but pull-backs should be shallow and bought. In addition to the growth tailwinds already cited, it's worth pointing out that many companies also face very easy growth comparisons. I've had a long standing out of consensus view that the U.S. has been experiencing a rolling recession for the last three years. This fits with the fact that much of the soft economic data that has been hovering in recession territory for much of that period as well—things like purchasing manager indices, consumer confidence, and the private labor market. It also aligns with my long-standing view that government spending has helped to keep the headline economic growth statistics strong, while much of the private sector and many consumers have been crowded out by that heavy spending which has also kept the Fed too tight. Meanwhile, private sector wage growth has been in a steady decline over the last several years, and payroll growth across Tech, Financials and Business Services has been negative – until recently. Conversely, Government and Education/Health Services payroll growth has been much stronger over this time horizon. This type of wage growth and sluggish payroll growth in the private sector is typical of an early cycle backdrop. It's a key reason why operating leverage inflects in early cycle environments, and margins expand. Our earnings model is picking up on this underappreciated dynamic, and AI adoption is likely to accelerate this phenomenon. In short, this is looking more and more like an early cycle set up where leaner cost structures drive positive operating leverage after an extended period of wage growth consolidation. Bottom line, the capitulatory price action and earnings estimate cuts we saw in April of this year around Liberation Day represented the end of a rolling recession that began in 2022. Markets bottom on bad news and we are transitioning from that rolling earnings recession backdrop to a rolling recovery environment. The combination of positive earnings and cash flow drivers with the easy growth comparisons fostered by the rolling EPS recession and the high probability of the Fed re-starting the cutting cycle by the first quarter of next year should facilitate this transition. The upward inflection we're seeing in earnings revisions breadth confirms this process is well underway and suggests returns for the average stock are likely to be strong over the next 12-months. In short, buy any dips that may occur in the seasonally weak quarter of the year. Thanks for tuning in; I hope you found it informative and useful. Let us know what you think by leaving us a review.

Plastic foam pollution continues to be a widespread and dangerous threat to ocean health. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Oceana's Christy Leavitt breaks down their 2025 report exposing the true environmental cost of expanded polystyrene foam (EPS) used in foodware across the US. With shocking statistics and real-life examples, Christy explains how foam harms marine ecosystems, why it's rarely recycled, and how local and national bans are gaining momentum. Plastic pollution solutions begin with better policies, informed choices, and collective action. Christy walks us through Oceana's campaign victories, the data behind foam bans, and how individuals can help push corporations and governments to make the switch to reusable and compostable alternatives. Whether you're a policymaker, a concerned citizen, or someone just learning about this issue, this episode will give you clear actions to take and hope for change.

Daniel Mahncke and Shawn O'Malley dive into PayPal's post-pandemic reset, tracing the fintech pioneer's slide from market darling to value-story candidate. Once lifted by lockdown spending and eBay tailwinds, PayPal has seen its growth stall, its take-rate decline, and investors seem to have given up on it. In this episode, Shawn and Daniel unpack whether new CEO Alex Chriss's “profitable growth” playbook, Fastlane one-click checkout, a margin-focused Braintree overhaul, and fresh bets on Ads and the PYUSD stablecoin, can restore momentum. They also debate how realistic PayPal's ambitious goals for the future are, what a sustained 6% share shrink via buybacks does for long-term EPS, how the new management team is incentivized, and whether PayPal's consumer moat still matters in an Apple-Pay world. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN 00:00 - Intro 04:38 - How PayPal became the No.1 payment provider and what the PayPal Mafia is. 09:47 - Why investors fell out of love with PayPal's stock. 14:03 - What the next chapter under the new CEO will look like. 26:42 - Which new businesses could make PayPal dramatically more profitable? 33:31 - How the new strategy shows up in the numbers. 50:06 - Why the management incentive structure is a big benefit for shareholders. 51:36 - Whether stablecoins are bearish or bullish for PayPal. 01:01:11 - Whether PayPal is attractively valued at its current levels. 01:10:05 - Whether Shawn & Daniel add PYPL to The Intrinsic Value Portfolio.
