Q3 revenue guidance of about $650M (midpoint) fell well short of consensus $804.8M and EBITDA guidance of $160M vs $339.6M.

Meta stock sinks 10% after earnings miss, capex outlook spooks investors

Meta Platforms reported Q2 EPS of $6.18 on $60.8B revenue (missed estimates of $7.14 EPS on $60.2B revenue) while advertising revenue rose to $59.3B, beating expectations. The company also raised the lower end of its 2026 capex guidance to $135-145B and signaled capex could exceed $145B, largely for data centers. Analysts were underwhelmed, calling the quarter barely passable as cash flow remained only modestly positive; the stock fell about 10% in premarket trading amid concerns about higher capital spending and cash generation.

IBM's Q2 Preview: AI Push and Pipeline in the Spotlight

IBM is set to report Q2 results after the close, with investors watching whether delayed enterprise deals shift into Q3 and whether the company can maintain more than 5% constant-currency revenue growth and about $1 billion in annual free cash flow improvement. Analysts expect management to address the Q2 revenue miss (about $17.2B) and adjusted EPS near $2.93, caused by softer software growth, weaker infrastructure revenue, and flat consulting, while updates on AI initiatives (Red Hat and watsonx) and deal pipelines will be key on the call. Options traders imply roughly a 7% move after the earnings release.

GM lifts full-year outlook after Q2 beat as tariffs ease and costs fall

GM beat Q2 expectations with revenue of $48.03B, adjusted EPS of $3.57 and adjusted EBIT of $3.94B, aided by cost cuts and tariff offsets, and raised full-year guidance to adjusted EBIT of $14.0–16.0B and adjusted EPS of $12.00–14.00 (auto free cash flow $9.5–11.5B). North America demand for pickups/SUVs remained solid (8.6% EBIT-adjusted margin in NA, up 2.5 points) while EV-related charges totaled about $4.5B in Q2 ($7.2B YTD). GM still sees EV losses improving by $1.0–$1.5B as credits and tariffs evolve, and while US vehicle volumes slipped about 4% to ~715k, the company held strong market positions in trucks and crossovers and maintained pricing discipline amid affordability headwinds.
