We are stepping into what might be the most consequential week of the Q4 earnings season. The spotlight is squarely on the AI complex, but we also have a massive slate of consumer and enterprise tech names ready to set the tone for the rest of the quarter.Here is the breakdown of the key events and macro themes to watch.The Macro ThemesThe AI Bellwether: Wednesday afternoon is all about NVIDIA (NVDA). Investors are currently wrestling with elevated valuations and heavy AI spending in mega-cap technology stocks. The market will be looking for clear evidence that this massive infrastructure spend is translating into durable returns, otherwise, a broader rotation out of mega-cap tech could unfold.Enterprise Tech & Software: Software is suddenly a bad word in markets and we have major reports from Salesforce (CRM), Snowflake (SNOW) and Workday (WDAY). Those are three companies that have been beaten up. It’s hard to imagine they’re going to say anything to convince market’s that AI won’t be disruptive so even on strong earnings we could see a ‘sell the rip’ trade.The Consumer & Housing: Household spending has been slowing sequentially, and recent retail sales data has been essentially flat. We will get a direct look at consumer resilience and the state of the housing/renovation market via Home Depot (HD), TJX (TJX), and Domino’s Pizza (DPZ).Earnings ScheduleMonday, February 23

đź’ˇ DMK Insight
Earnings reports this week could shift market sentiment dramatically, especially in tech stocks. With major players in the AI and consumer tech sectors reporting, traders need to watch for volatility. If companies exceed expectations, we could see a bullish trend, but any disappointments might trigger sell-offs. Key metrics to monitor include revenue growth and guidance for the next quarter. Pay attention to how these reports correlate with broader market trends, particularly in the Nasdaq, which is heavily weighted towards tech. A strong earnings season could also lift related sectors, like semiconductors and cloud services, while a weak performance might create a ripple effect, impacting investor confidence across the board. Keep an eye on the upcoming reports and be ready to adjust positions based on the outcomes, especially if any stocks breach significant support or resistance levels.
đź“® Takeaway
Watch for earnings surprises this week; a strong report could push tech stocks higher, while misses might lead to sharp declines.
