Tesla (TSLA) was the first member of the Magnificent Seven to report earnings this season, posting mixed results that has sent the stock ripping and roaring by nearly 20% higher. How should investors be looking at the broader tech trade coming off of Tesla's results? "In the short to medium term, though, it is a trade play. And I think if [Tesla stock] approaches and closes high above a $260, $265 level, I think you buy it because I think it's going all the way to $300," EquitySet CEO Tony Zipparro tells Wealth's Alexandra Canal. "However, if it kind of stops right, pauses, I think it's going all the way down to $200." Expanding the conversation to rest of the Magnificent Seven, Zipparro views declining revenue and deteriorating consumer fundamentals as the biggest risks for names like Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta Platforms (META). Zipparro elaborates on trends in investors rotating out of Big Tech and how investors can remain defensive around volatility fueled by the 2024 election.

Yahoo Finance Video ? 22 minutes ago GOOG NVDA AAPL UPS Q3 earnings beat: How it's planning for peak holiday season United Parcel Service (UPS) posted third quarter revenue of $22.2 billion, beating estimates and snapping a 10-quarter miss streak on its top line. The freight shipper noted this to be a 5.6% year-over-year increase in its earnings release while adjusted earnings per share rose 12.1% annually to $1.76. "And it really is the outcome of a lot of effort to focus on revenue quality and growing the business and the segments that really matter to us," UPS Chief Financial Officer Brian Dykes tells Seana Smith and Madison Mills on Catalysts. On the earnings call, UPS CEO Carol Tomé stated the delivery service is "ready to deliver another successful holiday season and continue the progress we demonstrated in the third quarter." Dykes comments on the onboarding process for UPS's partnership with the United States Postal Service, becoming the primary air cargo shipper for the USPS, ahead of the peak holiday season. "Peak is our Super Bowl around here. So you know UPS starts planning at peak in February, and we are starting to ramp up our staffing to be able to support our customers during what will be a short holiday season," Dykes says. "But we continue to invest in technology that allows us to, one, hire faster and more efficiently, allow those resources to be more efficiently. We've altered the model so we'll be more using more helpers, more part time drivers to help manage the flex up and down, as well as the technology that we use within our hubs." Dykes expands on UPS's macro holiday forecast — taking into account consumer and retailer demands — as well as its business-to-business (B2B) segments.

Yahoo Finance Video ? 2 hours ago UPS The one factor that could make or break Mag 7 market leadership Tesla (TSLA) has kicked off "Magnificent Seven" earnings, posting beats on adjusted earnings per share and higher gross margins. Ayako Yoshioka, Wealth Enhancement Group senior portfolio manager, joins Morning Brief to discuss what these results mean for the rest of the Magnificent Seven earnings and overall market leadership heading into 2025. Yoshioka explains that there is a greater emphasis on tech sector earnings given its concentration in the S&P 500 (^GSPC) and weight within the Magnificent Seven. However, she notes that CapEx (capital expenditures) spending among hyperscalers will determine their leadership position moving forward. She tells Yahoo Finance, "I think they're going to evaluate it at some point and see whether or not they need to continue at the pace that they've been at over the last few quarters." With AI still being early in its development, Yoshioka argues that it's "going to be a while" before seeing real competition among hyperscalers and chip companies.

This post was written by Melanie Riehl Yahoo Finance Video ? 3 hours ago GOOG MSFT NVDA Tesla is most underpriced AI play in the market: Dan Ives Tesla (TSLA) posted mixed third quarter results, with adjusted earnings of $0.72 per share surpassing the estimated $0.60, while revenue of $25.18 billion fell short of the $25.43 billion expected. Despite this, the automaker provided an optimistic forecast, projecting 20-30% growth for 2025. Wedbush Securities Managing Director & Senior Equity Analyst Dan Ives tells Morning Brief that margins were crucial this quarter. "That's been a huge part of the overhang on this story. They beat by 200 bps (basis points). Price cuts in the rearview mirror. And when you combine that with that growth forecast, I think whisper numbers called ten, eleven percent. They gave twenty and thirty percent. It's an Aaron Judge-like quarter," Ives states. Ives predicts Tesla will launch an affordable EV priced under $30,000, boosting company revenues — a factor he believes is reflected in the growth forecast. While acknowledging a "painful year" for EV demand, he anticipates a "renaissance of growth" in 2025, driven by advances in AI and autonomous driving technologies. Regarding the upcoming US election's impact on the EV market, Ives tells Yahoo Finance: "I do believe if Trump gets elected second term, it's bearish for EVs... but I do believe that it's bullish for Tesla."

Tesla (TSLA) stock is climbing higher in extended-hours trading after reporting mixed third quarter earnings, missing revenue estimates ($25.18 billion vs. $25.43 billion expected) and posting adjusted earnings of $0.72 per share ($0.60 was expected). The EV maker stated it is on track for "slight growth" in EV deliveries for 2024, while projecting production on affordable EVs to begin in 2025. "This just confirms what they've been saying, which is we're going to get affordable cars in the first half of next year," RBC Capital Markets Global Autos Analyst Tom Narayan tells Julie Hyman and Josh Lipton, adding: "We all thought we were going to see something at the robotaxi event about this, but I think folks are just comforted to know that it is coming. Everything is on track on the more affordable cars." Narayan discusses Tesla's earnings print and what it is forecasting about the electric automaker's margins: "They did do some discounting and they're going to try to get that growth number for the full year. So Q4 you're going to see some price-cutting. But if they can still do a 17% margin, X credits, that's a pretty strong signal that... they can continue to hold on to margins." Tesla reported 462,890 EV deliveries, just below Wall Street consensus estimates 463,897. Narayan believes Tesla's Full Self-Driving upgrades and pivots to autonomous driving could be boosting its demand. "The services number was pretty high. So I do wonder if the services attach rate, especially FSD, might be making making an impact here. Folks could be thinking I'm going to buy this car because of FSD," Narayan says. "That may be catalyzing demand. And kind of even though the models are maybe a little long in the tooth... FSD is something, something special here that might be what's happening."
