All eyes point to Wednesday. NVDA reports Q2 fiscal 2027 results after the close. The $5.2 trillion chipmaker is the biggest earnings print of the season. Reports emerged that Nvidia has notified customers of AI-related price hikes above 15% — adding another layer to an already high-stakes report.
Short sellers are not sitting still ahead of the print. Reddit saw the sharpest large-cap short interest jump of the week — up 4.1 percentage points to 17.6% of free float. Charter Communications added 2.9 points to reach 32.4%. On the options side, Micron, AMD, and Meta are drawing the heaviest bearish put flow. Rising Treasury yields are adding pressure to growth names across the board.
Beyond Nvidia, Salesforce, Intuit, Marvell, and Synopsys all report this week. Canadian banks Royal Bank and TD release Q3 results Thursday. The AI chip demand narrative will dominate every call.
Bill Gates filed a $346.5 million accumulation in Republic Services across 31 transactions. That is a deliberate, sustained buy — not a routine purchase. On the sell side, DST Global offloaded $313.9 million in newly public Chime Financial stock. Stryker director Ronda Stryker filed $117.8 million in SYK share sales.
Lockheed Martin received a Street upgrade. Options flow in industrials and staples — Parker-Hannifin and Colgate-Palmolive — skewed fully bullish. That rotation signal, away from tech and into defensives, is worth watching as bond yields grind higher into a pivotal week.
