Kraken Robotics stock came into this earnings print on the back foot, with the share price down about 28% over the past three months and more than 10% over the past week.

The market now has to decide whether that short term price weakness reflects genuine...

EQB stock came into this earnings print under pressure, down about 10% over the past month, just as the bank delivered one of its messiest quarters in years. The headline is not revenue or loan growth. It is the sharp swing into a quarterly loss tied to acquisition accounting and a heavy build in credit provisions.
