Tuesday delivers the first major read. IRIDEX Corporation drops Q2 results today after the close. The Progressive Corporation also posts July numbers tonight.
Tomorrow is the busiest day. Estée Lauder reports Q4 results before the open at 8:30am ET. The beauty giant carries a $21bn market cap and 3.2% short interest. Nordson Corporation posts Q3 results after the bell. Wolfspeed also reports Q4 results on Wednesday — the embattled chipmaker faces close scrutiny from investors.
Wednesday morning sees two major retail bellwethers. Target holds its Q2 earnings call at 8:00am ET. Lowe's follows at 9:00am. Both companies carry low short interest — 3.6% and 2.0% respectively. Investors will read their results as a consumer health check.
Wednesday also brings Ross Stores Q2 results after market close. The $79bn off-price retailer has just 3.0% of its float shorted. A strong print could reinforce the discount retail trade.
Advance Auto Parts holds its Q2 call on Wednesday at 8:00am ET. The auto parts sector has faced persistent margin pressure.
No IPOs are scheduled in the next seven days. The earnings calendar is the clear focus for markets this week.
