Earnings, earnings, earnings, and earnings! Only on this week’s PlayingFTSE Show!
Before we get started, a quick request. We’re getting very close to the magic 1,000 subscribers on YouTube right now. And we’d really appreciate a shove to get us over the line. We’ve always concentrated on making the best videos we can and we love and the appreciate the audience we have that tunes in every week. Thank you all and that will never change. But another 70 subscribers would really help us move things along here. So if there’s someone you can persuade to subscribe for us, please do!
Anyway, we’re talking earnings this week. It’s that time of the year again and there’s lots to look at and talk about.
Steve W is kicking us off with the banks. He owns Citigroup, but they’ve all been reporting earnings. Steve thinks he’s seen some important trends coming through that are worth paying attention to. But what do Paul and Steve D think?
Next, it’s the inevitable. It’s Tesla. The company reported lighter than expected revenues and the stock is down significantly in response. But they still delivered more cars than ever before and Elon Musk blamed the disappointing numbers on shipping concerns. So what’s the problem?
After that, it’s ASML. More strong results from the semiconductor machinery monolith. Good news for Paul and Steve D, who own this stock and have been loading up on it in the last quarter. Steve W doesn’t own it, though — why not?
We’re finishing with Netflix. After a couple of disappointing quarters, the company reported some strong subscriber numbers. And there’s much more for shareholders to be excited about. What does Netflix shareholder Steve D think? And why do we all disagree with Motley Fool analyst Tim Beyers?
