Winners and losers |
Earnings, upgrades, and acquisitions |
Netflix smashed expectations. The streaming company added 13.1 million new subscribers, bringing it to a record-high 260.8 million members. Profits were up 19x over last year. Shares up 6.5%. 3M missed revenue estimates and guided down for 2024 after a fairly tepid 2023. I expect the company to cut costs, starting with jobs, this year. Shares were down 11%. Procter & Gamble beat on adjusted earnings but missed on revenue. The company came in below expectations, factoring in the Gillette write-down. Sales volume was weak globally, but the company raised prices, which gave it a boost. Shares were up 4%. Macy's rejected Arkhouse and Brigade's $5.8 billion offer. Verizon added 318,000 new consumer wireless retail postpaid phone customers in Q4 vs just 41,000 last year. This was the strongest result on that metric in four years. Shares rose 5%. Texas Instruments threw up all over itself, missing earnings and revenue and guiding lower. Shares down 4%.
