It may be hard to believe, but next week is the last week before the election. Perhaps for that reason, the five big tech firms all decided to release their September quarter profit details next week. That’s fine, except that four of them—Amazon, Alphabet, Apple and Facebook—decided to do it on the same day, Thursday, at about the same time.
Twitter is also reporting that day. So expect a traffic jam of earnings reports on Thursday. But don’t worry, we’ve got your covered: Read down for details on what’s expected for each.
Next week will have other big tech news: On Wednesday, Twitter’s Jack Dorsey, Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg and Alphabet’s Sundar Pichai will appear before a Senate committee examining “whether Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act has outlived its usefulness.” Expect some fireworks from that hearing!
