HealthEquity stock has shaken off a weak August and snapped back with a 3.2% one day jump to US$96.37, even as the 7 day and 30 day returns remain in decline. The market is reacting strongly to one factor: profit power. Q2 delivered US$65.6 million in GAAP net income and a record adjusted EBITDA margin of 48%, which is rare territory for a healthcare benefits platform.

Workday stock jumped about 6% today, adding to a strong recent run, as investors reacted to a headline that matters far more than a single quarter.

For Cirrus Logic, the key potential support for valuation is the...

Ulta Beauty just gave investors a sentiment shock. The stock dropped about 4% today even though the latest quarter delivered earnings per share of US$6.57 on US$3.0b in sales with comparable sales up 3.8%. The emotional read is that the market is fixated on slowing comps and recent margin pressure rather than the fact that Ulta is still putting up solid absolute profits in a tougher beauty backdrop. Today’s move comes after a fairly flat few months for the stock, so this earnings print is...

Rubrik stock just absorbed a 13% hit in a single session, yet the headline from this quarter is not collapse, it is traction.
