That’s All Folks

Alright, folks, that is it for me today. I have an $AMAT earnings call to listen to and am also getting an early jump on the Pro Portfolio’s Weekly Roundup. 

Thanks for letting me play once again in the sandbox. Hope to see you ‘round these parts again before too long. Dougie is back at the wheel tomorrow.

The One Earnings Report to Watch After the Close

As you can see in the table below, we have a modicum of earnings reports after today’s close. While you may be a customer or even a fan of Boot Barn ($BOOT), odds are the market’s focus will be on April-quarter results and July-quarter guidance from Applied Materials ($AMAT). 

Back in February AMAT shared it sees its semiconductor systems business up more than 20% in calendar 2026. Coming off the increased multi-year outlook from Taiwan Semi ($TSM) this morning and Cisco ($CSCO) resetting its expected 2026 orders from hyperscalers to $9 billion from $5 billion, we’ll want to see AMAT lift that “more than 20%” figure. 

And an interesting story about that table. I attempted to use Microsoft Excel’s Data from Picture function three times to recreate it, but each time Excel stalled out. Using Claude, I uploaded the image and asked it to convert it to an Excel table. Done in seconds. 

Just saying…
