Never be left in the dust again.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Tesla<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tesla (NASDAQ:) late Wednesday  earnings of $0.91 per share &#8211; surpassing the $0.79 Wall Street consensus &#8211; on better-than-expected revenue of $24.93, and margins were also less bad than feared.<\/p>\n<p>Still, shares sank 9.7% in Thursday trading.<\/p>\n<p>Excluding regulatory credits, gross margins &#8211; which have been closely watched following recent price cuts on Tesla&#8217;s electric vehicles &#8211; fell 6.8% to 18.2% in Q2 from the prior year, better than analysts&#8217; estimates of 16.9%.<\/p>\n<p>The price cuts helped the EV giant boost its installed base and rake in new customers, with vehicle deliveries surging 86% to 466,140 EVs in Q2, marking a record quarter for the company.<\/p>\n<p>Wedbush called the move a &#8220;smart strategy,&#8221; saying after the report that the price cuts &#8220;have been in a homerun success in China, Europe, and the US\u2026 In a nutshell, we view Tesla where Apple was in the 2008\/2009 period as Cupertino was just starting to monetize its services and golden ecosystem with the Street not seeing the broader golden vision at the time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Needham and Company reiterated its Hold rating due to valuation, adding that it leans &#8220;more bullish when thinking about TSLA&#8217;s positioning vs legacy [original equipment manufacturer] peers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Goldman Sachs said the report was &#8220;solid&#8221; but that headwinds remain, reiterating its Neutral rating on the stock. Bofa also reiterated Neutral given risks from price cuts, increasing competition, and near-term macro considerations &#8211; while also noting the positive factors of cost reduction and &#8220;its ability to remain agile.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Wells Fargo, meanwhile, said Tesla delivered &#8220;a low quality&#8221; EPS beat &#8220;driven mostly by other income.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ifintechworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/a4ef6582530c1b132f60badc206436fe.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"\" height=\"\"><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Netflix<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Netflix (NASDAQ:) dropped 8.4% on Thursday, following mixed : While EPS of $3.29 came in better than the consensus of $2.84, revenue of $8.19 billion missed the consensus estimate of $8.27B.<\/p>\n<p>The company added 5.9 million paid net subscribers in Q2 as it successfully rolled out paid sharing to more than 100 countries, representing over 80% of its total revenue. Buyside expectations were around 4M net subscriber additions.<\/p>\n<p>Evercore ISI lifted the price target to $550 after &#8220;a mother of a quarter&#8221; and removed its Tactical Underperform rating on the stock. The firm blamed the move lower in shares on expectations correction, and not a fundamental correction, and &#8220;would encourage investors to buy NFLX shares on this (small) pullback.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>BofA, meanwhile, bumped the price target by $35 to $525 per share on Buy-rated NFLX shares. The analysts said the results were &#8220;healthy,&#8221; adding:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Within the Media ecosystem, we believe NFLX\u2019s depth\/breadth of content positions them well to withstand the production reductions.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2><strong>IBM<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>International Business Machines (NYSE:) shares rose more than 2% after better-than-expected  of $2.18 a share on below-par sales of $15.58B.<\/p>\n<p><span itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Corporation\"><span itemprop=\"name\"> IBM <\/span><\/span> said it continues to expect full-year 2023 constant currency revenue growth of 3% to 5%. At current foreign exchange rates, currency is expected to be neutral to revenue growth.<\/p>\n<p>UBS reiterated a Sell rating and a $110 per share price target on IBM stock, as the analysts believe the reiterated guidance bears a risk: They say they expect revenue to come in at the low end of the full-year 2023 &#8220;implied&#8221; guidance.<\/p>\n<p>BofA, however, kept its Buy rating on the stock and raised the price target by $8 to $160 per share, saying, &#8220;We believe the turnaround at IBM ([revenue] growth and [free cash flow] improvement) will continue. The company has a defensive portfolio, attractive dividend yield and an underappreciated AI portfolio.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Goldman Sachs<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Goldman Sachs (NYSE:) on Wednesday said  plunged 60% to $3.08 in Q2, missing estimates, on lower revenue of $10.89B that squeaked past consensus.<\/p>\n<p>Still, shares ticked up by 1% in Wednesday trading.<\/p>\n<p>The results were attributed to one-off charges related to the banking giant&#8217;s home improvement lending group GreenSky and losses on its consumer and real estate loan portfolios. Company top brass had already previously warned that this would be a challenging quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Investment banking fees also dropped by 20% to $1.43B, which trading revenue from fixed income, currency, and commodities slipped by more than a fourth.<\/p>\n<p>Like some of its banking rivals, Goldman&#8217;s investment and trading business has suffered from a slowdown in dealmaking followed by a string of Federal Reserve interest rate hikes that have put pressure on the U.S. economy.<\/p>\n<p><em>Yasin Ebrahim, Liz Moyer, Senad Karaahmetovic, and Davit Kirakosyan contributed to this report.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>__<\/em><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"InvestingPro\" src=\"https:\/\/ifintechworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/picb71a95b2c54dab9f3df0595b21aa7e71.jpg\" alt=\"InvestingPro\" align=\"bottom\" border=\"0\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.investing.com\/news\/stock-market-news\/4-big-earnings-hits-tesla-beats-but-shares-sink-netflix-takes-a-slide-3130574\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a9 Reuters.
