Predicted for 28. July 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
PayPal reports Q2 2026 results after market close on July 28. Consensus from multiple sources (Yahoo Finance, Zacks, Barchart, TipRanks) converges on USD 1.28/share non-GAAP, aligned with company guidance ('high-single-digit decline vs. Q2 2025: USD 1.40 → ~USD 1.27–1.28'). Q1 2026 actual: USD 1.34 vs. consensus USD 1.27 (+USD 0.07 beat). Under new CEO leadership, PayPal has beaten in 3 of last 4 quarters; Fastlane and PayPal Ads support margins. Main risk: guidance already anchors consensus near midpoint, leaving limited upside buffer — an in-line report would not qualify as a beat. Kalshi market not accessible (429 rate-limit).

Take-Two Interactive reports Q2 FY2027 (July–September 2026) results on November 9 after market close. Estimated analyst consensus: approx. -$0.45 EPS (heavy investment cycle around GTA VI and other AAA titles). TTWO has beaten consensus in 6 of the last 8 quarters; strong Recurrent Consumer Spending base (mobile, NBA 2K, GTA Online) consistently delivers positive surprises on cost discipline. Report date confirmed by TipRanks Earnings Calendar (as of Nov 8, 2026). Verification by TTWO Investor Relations or Bloomberg by November 10, 2026, 10:00 ET.

Constellation Energy reports Q3-FY2026 tomorrow (November 9, 2026) before market open. TradingView and Gurufocus put the EPS consensus at $3.90/share, with revenue consensus at $9.23B. CEG has beaten estimates in 7 of the last 8 quarters — an 87.5% historical beat rate. 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 has beaten EPS estimates for four consecutive quarters. The official consensus is $0.64/share — identical to the top of management guidance ($0.62–$0.64). 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.
