Happy Thursday, investors; it's January 30th. The market is climbing after big tech earnings Wednesday came in harsh- Microsoft fell 6% after Cloud sales were just under the line, and Tesla missed all estimates, but its forward-looking guidance from Chief Musk tried to pull the stock, but it too began to fall on Thursday. Meta's results painted a prettier picture for the coming year, and said sales grew 21%.
$Apple (AAPL.US)$earnings are coming after the bell; GDP inflation data showed the economy grew slower in Q4 2024, but first, let's look at Live Stock news.
Correction: The S&P 500 was negative during this episode's filming, and then immediately went back up, as if just to personally spite me.
$IBM Corp (IBM.US)$climbed 14%, the highest on the Dow and S&P 5000 by percentage, after the tech stock reported a 1% climb in revenue, and its AI generative business grew to $5 billion in bookings in the quarter, up more than 200% from Q3. It hit all time highs.
$United Parcel Service (UPS.US)$fell 15% after the economic bellwether of sorts reported Q4 revenue below estimates and said it would reduce$Amazon (AMZN.US)$shipping numbers by 50% gradually by 2026. It was the largest decliner on the S&P 500.
$Comcast (CMCSA.US)$fell 11%, the lowest in the Nasdaq 100 after the broadband provider reported a larger drop in customers than expected.
$American Airlines (AAL.US)$shares fell slightly after a tragic collision between a regional jet and a military helicopter near Washington, DC, officials said on Thursday.
In macroeconomic news, the first set of GDP quarterly results from the final months of 2024 shows the economy expanded at a slower pace than expected, according to BEA data Thursday. The economy expanded at 2.3% in Q4 2024, on an inflation adjusted basis, vs forecasts of 2.7%, and the previous quarter's 3.1%. Core PCE prices came out right as estimated- 2.50%, after the FOMC made a "no change" decision Wednesday on rates.
Yesterday, users said "reverse engineering," otherwise known as stealing, is common in any industry: it's what keeps the tech world going around. It is funny OpenAI is pissed off someone might have used their intellectual property to profit without permission when they trained their models on trillions of bits of copywritten information.

Don’t be sensitive. . If you wanna investigate some news on something interesting ….Why don’t you investigate why a hedgefund owner in China can influence over 1/2 a trillion of market cap and not be accountable for the information put out to the market. Further investigation of the real use case of a CCP controlled AI app used in US based and european markets. TikTok is on life support due to it’s connection to the CCP. Also…There's no citizenship requirement for owning stocks of American companies. While U.S. investment securities are regulated by U.S. law, there are no provisions forbidding individuals who are not citizens of the U.S. from participating in the U.S. stock market. how many Foreign nationals made money on Nvidia and other tech stock companies.. there maybe nothing there but that would be real news. thank you for your time. I know you work hard.
