Goldman Sachs analyst Peter Callahan made predictive ratings on these upcoming financial reports in the latest report. Goldman Sachs is most bullish on meta platforms and gave it the highest score of 9.5, followed by Amazon with 8.5, Apple with 8, Microsoft with 7, and Google with 6. Intel and other companies received the lowest score of 2.

The financial reports of these large tech stocks are being released intensively before the US election and the Federal Reserve decision, potentially causing market fluctuations. Goldman Sachs has identified ten key focus areas and industry trends for this 'Super Earnings Week.'

1. TMT (Technology, Media, Telecommunications) financial reports performing well.

So far, TMT stocks have shown strong performance in the third quarter earnings reports. Among the first batch of information technology companies to report earnings, around 78% exceeded earnings per share (EPS) expectations, while the communication services industry was around 67%.

2. The seven tech giants of the US stock market.

Goldman Sachs points out that the challenge for the seven US tech giants is that it is currently difficult to find financial reports that investors consider 'good'—META faces expectations of increased sales and capital expenditures pressure in 2025, there is debate over Amazon's fourth-quarter profit guidance, Google's YouTube is slowing its growth and facing regulatory pressure, Microsoft has lowered EPS expectations again, there are controversies over Azure's transparency, and there is uncertainty in Apple's fourth-quarter guidance.
