Downside

– $ATEC -32% (Q3 missed as weaker biologics revenue drove cuts to the FY revenue, EBITDA and free-cash-flow outlooks)

– $RDDT -22% (strong headline growth was overshadowed by a 2% decline in US daily active users)

– $TWLO -19% (Q3 beat and FY outlook rose, but Q4 organic growth is set to slow sharply and operating-profit guidance disappointed)

– $RBLX -16% (Q4 bookings forecast calls for a 10% to 15% year-over-year decline)

– $ILMN -13% (revenue missed and slowing instrument growth outweighed a guidance raise partly helped by tariff refunds)

– $DELL -12%, HPQ -10%, P -7.8%, HPE -7.6% (hardware and storage names tumble as the PC warning and heavy AI spending trigger broad tech de-risking)

– $SYK -10% (Q3 sales and profit missed and the FY outlook was cut amid softer hip and knee demand)

– $SNDK -9.4% (strong quarter and guidance trigger a high-expectations sell-the-news reaction as consumer revenue fell sharply)

– $CCJ -8.7% (Q3 results fell year over year as a longer Key Lake outage raised costs and Westinghouse equity earnings declined)

– $CRDO -8.7%, ARM -9.5%, AMD -9.8%, ASX -8.7%, SMTC -9.5%, NVDA -2.7% (semiconductors fall after the weak chip outlook sparks a global technology rout)

– $COHR -8.8%, BE -9.0%, NBIS -8.3%, GLW -7.1% (AI-infrastructure names unwind as negative free cash flow renews concerns over capex returns)

– NWG -8.1% (quarterly profit fell, impairment losses nearly doubled and the next buyback decision was deferred)

– WDC -8.1%, STX -7.2% (storage names fall alongside the memory selloff and broader AI-hardware de-risking)

– AMZN -7.4% (Q3 sales and profit missed, free cash flow turned deeply negative and the holiday-quarter sales outlook was cautious)

– PINS -7.3% (Q3 revenue missed guidance and the Q4 outlook implies further growth deceleration)
