Berkshire Headlines a Busy Week for Earnings

Today's calendar is heavy. Moderna ($103B market cap) posts results this morning. The vaccine maker's quarter has drawn attention after ORTEX Alt Data shows European plug-in hybrid registrations hit a six-year October low of 5,427 vehicles, a backdrop that underscores wider consumer-spending caution.

Humana also reports today. Medicare Advantage penetration reached a record 51.1% in July 2026, up from 50.97% a year earlier, the highest reading since tracking began in 2013. Total Medicare beneficiaries hit 70.7 million. That structural tailwind sits directly behind Humana's core business.

Energy dominates the rest of today's slate. EOG Resources, Devon Energy, and Vistra Corp all report. Power and oil names have been among the more watched S&P 500 names this quarter.

Charter Communications also releases numbers today, testing whether the cable sector's subscriber trends have stabilised.

Saturday brings the most anticipated print of the week. Berkshire Hathaway releases earnings on 7 November. Investors will parse Warren Buffett's latest moves in cash and equities.

Monday brings another cluster. Occidental Petroleum, Constellation Energy, Take-Two Interactive, and Skydance Corporation all report. Ferguson Enterprises also posts Monday morning.

Cisco Systems and Applied Materials close the week on Wednesday, 11 November. Both carry large market caps and wide analyst coverage. No IPOs are scheduled in the next seven days.
