Probability

55%

Walmart reports Q2 FY2027 results (May–July 2026 period) on August 20, 2026 (pre-market). Analyst consensus: $0.75 EPS. Walmart's own Q2 guidance was $0.720–$0.740, so consensus already prices in a ~$0.01–$0.03 beat above guidance. Consumer backdrop was robust: UK Retail Sales June +1.0% MoM (ONS); US consumer spending stable. Walmart benefits structurally from Walmart+ subscriptions, Walmart Connect advertising, and resilient grocery. Risk: margin pressure from new Section 301 import tariffs (July 2026).

Verdict: Hit

Walmart berichtete am 20. August 2026 für Q2 FY2027 ein bereinigtes Non-GAAP-EPS von 0,81 USD – deutlich über dem Konsens von 0,75 USD (und sogar über der höheren Schätzung von ~0,74 USD lt. einigen Quellen). Die Vorhersage trat klar ein. Treiber des Beats waren jedoch weniger das organische Retail-Momentum, sondern v.a. Zollrückerstattungen (Section 301-Tariff Refunds), die die Bruttomarge stark aufbläuten, sowie Wachstum bei eCommerce (+23 %), Werbeumsätzen (+38 %) und Mitgliedschaften (+17 %). Walmart hob zudem den Jahresausblick an. Die Aktie fiel trotzdem ca. 9 %, da der Markt die Qualität des Beats (einmalige Zolleffekte, schwache US-Store-Comp-Sales) skeptisch bewertete.

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)

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 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)

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.
