Earnings Season: Muted Gains, Sharp Losses: Can Mag 7 Shift the Mood?

The kickoff has been far from optimistic. Even earnings beats only lead to modest gains, while misses are punished heavily. Take Google for example — despite beating expectations, the stock opened higher but ended the day up just 0.88%.ASML: Dropped 8% right after earnings. Over the following three trading days, the total decline reached 14%. TSMC: Gained 3% post-earnings, but ended with a red candle. It went on to decline for three consecutive days. --------- Mag 7 companies: META, AMZN, AAPL, will release earnings next week. Can they shift the mood or not?

Earnings season is off to a rocky start, and the pattern is clear: even when companies beat expectations, the upside is minimal, while any stumble leads to sharp losses. Google’s performance sums it up—an initial pop quickly faded, ending with less than a 1% gain despite beating estimates. Meanwhile, misses like ASML’s are being punished brutally, with a double-digit slide that didn’t stop after day one. TSMC, another bellwether, briefly rallied post-earnings but couldn’t hold its gains, starting a losing streak instead. This is classic late-cycle behaviour: markets are priced for perfection after a long run-up, and even “good” results aren’t enough to move the needle higher. Investors are demanding more than just a beat—they want reassurance on future growth, margins, and clear evidence t

The Q2 2025 earnings season has been a wild ride, with the market delivering muted gains for beats and brutal sell-offs for misses. Alphabet ( $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ ) eked out a modest 0.88% gain despite crushing estimates, while ASML plummeted 14% over three days post-earnings, and TSMC’s 3% initial gain faded into a three-day decline.

Alphabet Q2 2025 Earnings: A Strong Beat, But Is $200 in Sight? $Alphabet(GOOGL)$  , Google's parent company, delivered an impressive Q2 2025 earnings report, clearly outperforming market expectations. With $96.43 billion in revenue and $2.31 in EPS—both ahead of consensus estimates—the company continues to demonstrate its dominance across Search, YouTube, and especially Cloud, all of which were further accelerated by rapid progress in AI development. What really stood out to me was the strength of Google Cloud, which grew 28% year-over-year and saw operating income double to $2.2 billion. That kind of growth reflects real momentum, not just hype. On top of that, Search and YouTube ad revenue remained strong, a

Google’s Q2 Triumph: AI Surge or Capex Scare?

Alphabet Inc. ( $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ ), Google’s parent company, has set the stage ablaze with its Q2 2025 earnings, reported after market close on July 23, 2025, delivering a robust beat on revenue and earnings per share (EPS). With $96.43 billion in revenue and $2.31 EPS, surpassing estimates of $94 billion and $2.18, Alphabet showcased strength in search, YouTube, and cloud, fueled by AI advancements. However, a $10 billion increase in 2025 capital expenditure (capex) to $85 billion, aimed at bolstering AI and cloud infrastructure, sparked mixed investor reactions, with the stock dipping initially before recovering 3% in after-hours trading.

📌 Muted Gains, Sharp Losses — Can the Mag 7 Shift the Mood? 🔥 Earnings Beats... But No Breakout 🎢 We’re deep into earnings season — and something feels off. Strong numbers are being met with shrugs or even selloffs. Just ask $ASML (–14%) or $TSM (–6%) — both beat expectations, yet got punished. Even $GOOGL barely held gains after solid ad and cloud growth. Investors seem on edge, unwilling to reward performance unless it’s perfect. So the question is: will the Magnificent 7 flip the script — or deepen the slump? 💼 What’s Going On in Earnings So Far? This season’s pattern is clear: Solid results? Muted upside. Minor miss? Sharp downside. The market has moved into "sell the news" mode. Valuations are rich. Sentiment is cautious. And everyone’s wondering if peak earnings are already priced in

Judgemental Analysis: Google Q2 2025 Earnings — Is Alphabet the Most Undervalued Tech Titan? Earnings season is here again, and all eyes are on the usual suspects: the “Magnificent Seven” tech giants. But among these, Google — or more accurately, Alphabet Inc. — stands out for reasons both exciting and, frankly, puzzling. As the company prepares to release its Q2 2025 earnings report after the market closes on July 23, the consensus is almost comically bullish. Revenue projections are sky-high at $93.75 billion, and profit margins are expected to expand. The forecast for diluted EPS is a respectable $2.25. From a valuation standpoint, analysts peg Google’s fair value at $185 per share based on an EV/EBITDA multiple of 13.55x for fiscal 2026. Yet, in a market that endlessly rewards hype, Go
