Nvidia Is Just One in 2,529

It’s been a busy week at Weiss HQ.

As you can imagine, earnings season gives us millions of new data points that we devour as quickly as we can. 

Nvidia’s (NVDA) earnings this week might have been the biggest for the rest of the market. But it wasn’t the only one. 

Consider that along with the AI giant, 2,529 other companies reported their earnings … just this week!

We do have some good early data, though, before the season officially wraps up. 

In the S&P 500, earnings-per-share growth hit 17%. That’s better than each of the previous three years. 

Meanwhile, revenue growth was just above 5%. Meaning cost savings and productivity gains were far more important than booming economic activity during the final quarter of 2024. 

Your experts take data like this and turn it into gold. Take Palantir Technologies (PLTR) for instance. 

This company happened to be in Michael A. Robinson’s Weiss Technology Portfolio. His readers were up 279% at the start of this week. 

But after analyzing all the new data from its earnings, Michael saw the writing on the wall. Shares were going to come down in a hurry. 

Sure enough, he told readers to take their 279% gain just BEFORE shares crashed this week. His readers exited at over $100 per share. PLTR ended the week around $84.

For more on what experts like Michael do with all this data, you’ll have to check out what they are writing. Here’s the latest …
