☆ How Google Cloud is helping quants like Two Sigma work around the shortage of Nvidia's prized AI chips
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-03 | by ( Bianca Chan | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

Google Cloud, one of the fund's cloud providers, developed new technologies that drew a full room of spectators at Google Cloud Next. When Google Cloud clients request GPUs through DWS, the platform requires clients to specify the region, the machine type and count of machines, and runtime duration. Knowing how many resources a given client needs allows Google Cloud to provision capacity more granularly, which "unlocks additional capacity," Mateo said. As a cloud provider for many financial firms, Google Cloud benefits from helping its clients run these models because many research platforms are hosted on Google's public cloud. In addition to Two Sigma, Citadel Securities has its research platform on Google Cloud.

Earnings per share rose 1% to $1.53, a March quarter record, and exceeded the LSEG consensus estimate of $1.50. This resulted in stronger-than-expected free cash flow, which is more important than operating cash flow because it is cash Apple can ultimately return to shareholders via buybacks and dividends. During the reported quarter, Apple paid over $27 billion to shareholders, including $3.7 billion in dividends and equivalents and another $23.5 billion via the repurchase of 130 million shares. Quarterly results Apple's services sales notched another record, which offset a slight miss in product sales and led to beats on gross and operating income. iPad sales are expected to gain double digits year over year, much better than the 5.9% expected on Wall Street.

☆ Peloton CEO Barry McCarthy to step down, company to lay off 15% of staff as it looks to refinance debt
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-02 | by ( Gabrielle Fonrouge | In Gabrielle-Fonrouge | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +9 min

In a letter to staff, McCarthy said the company needed to implement layoffs because it wouldn't be able to generate sustainable free cash flow with its current cost structure. "Achieving positive [free cash flow] makes Peloton a more attractive borrower, which is important as the company turns its attention to the necessary task of successfully refinancing its debt," McCarthy said in the memo. McCarthy had also expected Peloton to reach positive free cash flow by June — a goal the company said it reached early during its third quarter. In a letter to shareholders, Peloton said it generated $8.6 million in free cash flow but it's unclear how sustainable that number is. The company didn't provide specific guidance on what investors can expect with free cash flow in the quarters ahead but said it does expect to "deliver modest positive free cash flow" in its current quarter.

☆ Cramer says inflation data is driving market action, even during a major earnings week
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-02 | by ( Julie Coleman | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

CNBC's Jim Cramer said Thursday that investors need weaker figures from Friday's labor report if they want stocks to rally, adding that inflation data is what is truly driving market action. "I wish the market didn't work this way, but that's the reality, and it's why you need to bet against the U.S. economy tomorrow if you're hoping for higher stock prices." Cramer said he hates having to root against the economy, but investors are so focused on what "big picture data" might signal to the Fed that information such as the April jobs report controls market action — even during an influential earnings week. He also said the focus on the federal funds rate makes the stock market a "plaything" for those who want to bet on the Fed's next move. "It's absurd — it's the opposite of a stock picker's market."

First Solar is poised for growth as demand continues to improve with surging electricity consumption from data centers acting as a catalyst for the manufacturer, according to Goldman Sachs. The firm raised its stock price target to $268 after First Solar reported another stronger quarter, which suggests the shares could log 50% upside from Wednesday's close of $177.58. First Solar CEO Mark Widmar told analysts during the company's earnings call that he is seeing a "meaningful increase in demand expectations driven in part by data center load growth." Apple , Google, Meta , and Microsoft are committed to carbon-free energy as they hyperscale data centers, Widmar said. "We'll be ready to go as quickly as possible," Widmar told analysts.

US futures slid as traders weighed Amazon's earnings beat against Starbucks and McDonald's misses. The Federal Reserve is set to provide an update later on the likely trajectory of interest rates. McDonald's also fell short of Wall Street's revenue, earnings, and same-store sales estimates for last quarter as consumers spent less at the fast-food chain. A painful combination of historic inflation and soaring interest rates over the past couple of years have squeezed household budgets and stoked concern of a recession. Stubborn inflation in recent months has dampened Wall Street's hopes that the Fed will cut rates in the months ahead.
