WINNERS
⬆︎13.47% CyberArk
Just an impulse buy. Palo Alto Networks, known for scooping up smaller firms to expand its security platform, is reportedly in talks to buy CyberArk for $20 billion. CyberArk is a leader in identity and access management — a fast-growing corner of cybersecurity focused on blocking insider threats. [Read more]
⬆︎6.65% JetBlue
🔔 Earnings report - Smooth landing. The low-cost carrier surprised everyone with a smaller loss than expected and even eked out a slim profit, a rare feat in today’s turbulent airline industry. Its turnaround plan, JetForward, is finally gaining traction, adding $90 million in extra earnings so far this year. Its new partnership with United Airlines is also off to a strong start. [Read more]
⬆︎6.57% SoFi
🔔 Earnings report - Traditional banks can’t keep up. The all-in-one finance app added 850,000 new members (its biggest jump yet) pushing total users to 11.7 million. Revenue hit $3.3 billion, and the company raised its full-year forecast thanks to strong growth across lending, banking, and fee-based services. [Read more]

LOSERS
⬇︎7.46% UnitedHealth
🔔 Earnings report - ER visits, pricey meds, and growing mental health costs are piling up, pushing the healthcare giant’s Q2 profit down and forcing it to cut its 2025 earnings target to $16 per share. That’s way down from the $30 it once aimed for. Leadership turnover and DOJ investigations are only making things worse. [Read more]
⬇︎8.66% Paypal
🔔 Earnings report - Commendable numbers from the digital payments pioneer, beating expectations on both revenue and profit, with Venmo sales up 20% helping lift the numbers. It even raised its full year earnings forecast. But the core checkout business is losing steam, and that slowdown is a big red flag. Fewer people are choosing to pay with PayPal at checkout these days. [Read more]
⬇︎10.57% UPS
🔔 Earnings report - UPS delivered overseas but dropped the ball at home, hit by tariffs and soft US demand. For the second quarter in a row, the delivery heavyweight gave no full-year forecast blaming trade tensions, weak demand, and fewer China shipments. Investors might be running out of patience. [Read more]
⬇︎11.55% Spotify
🔔 Earnings report - The streaming king couldn’t deliver. Numbers were poor across the board, and its forecast for next quarter didn’t help. Higher payroll costs, surprise tax charges, and a sluggish ads business weighed on results. Still, user growth stayed strong with nearly 700 million monthly listeners. [Read more]
⬇︎12.25% Air Canada
🔔 Earnings report - The Canadian airline missed profit targets last quarter as U.S. travel slumped, partly due to strained relations since the Trump administration took office. Conflicts in regions like the Middle East and India also weighed on demand. [Read more]
⬇︎21.83% Novo Nordisk
🔔 Earnings report - Too many knockoffs. The Danish drugmaker just slashed its full-year forecast again as U.S. demand for Wegovy isn't growing as fast as hoped. The company is getting squeezed by cheaper, compounded versions of the drug. It also announced a leadership shake-up, with longtime exec Mike Doustdar stepping in as CEO. [Read more]
