Meta has beaten Non-GAAP EPS consensus for ten consecutive quarters (FactSet). Q2 FY2026 (Aug 2026): adjusted EPS $8.33 vs. consensus $7.94 — a beat of +$0.39. Drivers: AI-powered Advantage+ ad booking system, growing Reels monetization, and disciplined cost management after the 'Year of Efficiency'. Bloomberg's seasonally adjusted consensus for Q3 is approx. $7.80–8.20 (mild advertising seasonality drag). FactSet ranks Meta as a top-5 EPS beater over the past eight quarters. Risk: EU Digital Markets Act fines, cyclical ad budget cuts.

Verdict: Partial Hit

Meta berichtete Q3 2026 am 21. Oktober 2026 (nicht 29. Oktober). Non-GAAP EPS (bereinigt um die Rechtsstreit-Sonderbelastung) betrug 7,40 USD und übertraf damit den tatsächlichen Konsens von ca. 6,54 USD um +0,86 USD (+13,1 %) — die Beat-Richtung war korrekt. Jedoch lag der tatsächliche Non-GAAP EPS ($7,40) unter der prognostizierten Konsensrange von $7,80–$8,20. Ursache: Eine nicht antizipierte Sonderbelastung von 9,89 Mrd. USD aus dem August-2026-Vergleich mit US-Generalstaatsanwälten im Verfahren zur Jugend-Mental-Health-Klage drückte sowohl die Konsensschätzungen als auch die bereinigten Ergebnisse unter den prognostizierten Bereich. GAAP EPS lag bei nur 3,83 USD. Revenue (+26% YoY auf 64,6 Mrd. USD) und operative Werbe-KPIs (Ad-Impressions +10%, Preis/Ad +14%) waren stark.

Cerebras Systems (NASDAQ: CBRS) closes below $100.00 per share on November 10, 2026 (confirmed by Nasdaq or Bloomberg by November 11, 2026)

CBRS trades at $109.18 (October 30, 2026) — already 61% below its all-time high of $279.72. The final and largest lockup expiration is scheduled for November 10, 2026: approximately 19.4 million shares are unlocked (of three tranches of 19.4M each). Prior lockup tranches have consistently weighed on the stock. Insiders have sold ~$394.6M in shares since the May 2026 IPO — zero insider purchases. A Culper Research short-seller report has triggered multiple investigations. A close below $100 requires a ~8.4% decline — plausible given the expected supply pressure on expiration day.

ARM Holdings plc (NASDAQ: ARM) beats Q2-FY2027 EPS consensus of $0.47 per share — earnings report November 4, 2026 after market close (confirmed by ARM Holdings Investor Relations or Bloomberg by November 5, 2026, 10:00 AM ET)

ARM Holdings reports Q2 FY2027 (July–September 2026) on November 4 after market close. EPS consensus: $0.47; revenue consensus ~$1.38B (Theta Research, Oct 29). ARM is the dominant CPU IP licensor for AI servers (Neoverse), smartphones (Apple A-series, Qualcomm), and edge devices — all three segments scaling strongly in 2026. ARM has beaten EPS consensus in each of the last four quarters, driven by AI infrastructure capex. No direct Polymarket contract; analogue: S&P 500 Q3 2026 beat rate ~71%. Key risks: export control escalation (UK/US vs. China), hyperscaler capex delays, or HBM4 demand plateau.
