Nike’s removal from the S&P 100 on September 21 has put a number back in circulation that deserves more scrutiny than it is getting. The company has shed roughly 80% of its market capitalisation since November 2021, somewhere near $215 billion depending on whether you measure against the closing high of $169.74 or an intraday print. The interesting part is what did not happen alongside it. Fiscal 2022 revenue, the year containing the peak, was $46.

Nvidia reported $96.2 billion of revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, up 106 percent year over year and 18 percent sequentially, with data center at $89.0 billion and gross margin holding at 75.0 percent on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis. The third-quarter guide landed at $108.0 billion against roughly $104 billion of consensus. None of that is the disclosure worth reading twice. The number that carries information is $279 billion, the company’s supply obligations, against the $145 billion figure disclosed three months earlier.

Sandisk closed Wednesday at $1,350.50, down 5.4% on the session, then traded down toward $1,257 after the fiscal fourth quarter release. The stock is up roughly 490% year to date and has been the best performer in the S&P 500 in 2026. Its fifty-two week range runs from $40.53 to $2,354.39, the high set on June 22. Market capitalization sits near $200 billion on 148.1 million shares outstanding, with a beta of 4.

Tempus AI reported GAAP net income of $5.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, the first positive bottom line in its public history, and the number is almost entirely an accounting event. Loss from operations widened to $75.9 million from $61.8 million a year earlier. The line that closed the gap was $97.4 million of fair value changes on marketable equity securities, non-cash and non-recurring by construction. Strip it out and Q2 was a larger operating loss on slower growth.

Meta reported second-quarter revenue of $60.8 billion, up 28% year over year, family daily active people of 3.6 billion on average for June, up 3%, and guided third-quarter revenue below consensus. The stock fell more than 8% after hours. Underneath the headline sit three numbers that explain the reaction better than the guide does: $2.4 billion in charges related to legal proceedings, $1.18 billion in severance connected to the May layoff of about 8,000 staff, and free cash flow of $784 million, down 91%.

Qualcomm reported third-quarter revenue of $9.95 billion, down 4% year over year, guided fourth-quarter profit below consensus, and said revenue from Apple will decline faster than it previously expected. The stock fell more than 7% after hours. Earlier the same day, the company disclosed a ten-year agreement to supply chips for BMW’s future digital cockpit and advanced driver-assistance systems. Both disclosures are accurate descriptions of the company. They are describing different decades.

Robinhood reported second-quarter revenue of $1.31 billion, up 32% year over year against a $1.29 billion consensus. Inside that number, event contracts revenue rose more than tenfold to $156 million while crypto revenue fell 38% to $100 million. The prediction market business is now larger than the crypto trading business, and it got there in roughly a year. That crossover is the print. Crypto trading was the growth engine that carried this company through two cycles and it is behaving exactly as a transactional crypto business always behaves, which is to say it tracks retail speculative appetite with no floor underneath it.

An analyst call is a scheduled conference call or webcast in which a company’s leadership—typically the CEO, CFO, and select executives—speaks directly with financial analysts, institutional investors, and sometimes journalists about performance and outlook. The most common occasion is the quarterly earnings release. Companies like Apple or Tesla publish their results, then convene a call to walk through the numbers in depth. The format is predictable. Management delivers prepared remarks covering revenue, profit, operational highlights, and where necessary, explanations for misses or shortfalls.

Dassault Systèmes has announced a significant leadership transition, marking the end of an era and the beginning of a carefully prepared new chapter. Bernard Charlès has informed the Board of Directors, with immediate effect, of his decision to step down as Executive Chairman and as a member of the Board, citing personal reasons. The move comes after decades in which Charlès shaped the company’s identity, strategy, and technological ambition, turning it from an early-stage venture into a global reference in industrial software and product lifecycle management.
