Verdict: Miss

Meta meldete am 29. Juli 2026 einen Q2-EPS von 6,18 USD – ein Verfehlen des Konsenses von ca. 7,17–7,23 USD um rund 14 %. Der Umsatz von 60,80 Mrd. USD übertraf den Konsens leicht (+28 % YoY). Der EPS-Miss war primär auf zwei Einmalbelastungen zurückzuführen: (1) 2,4 Mrd. USD Rückstellungen für rechtliche Verbindlichkeiten und (2) 1,18 Mrd. USD Abfindungskosten im Zuge eines Stellenabbaus von ~8.000 Stellen.

Constellation Energy (NASDAQ: CEG) beats Q3-FY2026 EPS consensus of $3.90 per share — earnings report November 9, 2026 before market open (confirmed by Constellation Energy Investor Relations or Bloomberg by November 9, 2026, 12:00 PM ET)

Driver: Structurally rising nuclear power demand for AI data centers (e.g., Microsoft contracts) boosts reactor utilization and secures stable cash flows. Risk: Stock fell ~9% post-midterm results, reflecting repriced regulatory uncertainty that could overshadow near-term operational strength. Strong fundamentals and consistent beat history nevertheless support another consensus beat.

Walmart Inc. (NYSE: WMT) beats Q3-FY2027 EPS consensus of $0.64 per share — earnings report November 19, 2026 before market open (confirmed by Walmart Investor Relations or Bloomberg by November 19, 2026, 12:00 PM ET)

Analysts average $0.72 (range $0.70–$0.73), anticipating another structural beat. Drivers: Robust US consumer (October CPI ~3.5–3.7%; September retail sales +0.8% MoM), ongoing grocery market share gains, and strong e-commerce and advertising growth. Risk: Management lowered full-year guidance after Q2; macro headwinds from elevated prices could compress volume mixes. The consistent beat history and structural tailwinds prevail.
