The pet retailer posted revenue of $1.46 billion, which was a slight miss against the $1.47 billion forecast. The company's stock jumped post-market as it delivered on its profitability goals, expanding its gross profit margin and raising its full-year 2025 earnings outlook to a tighter $395M-$397M window.

Workday $WDAY ( ▲ 3.11% ) reported adjusted earnings of $2.32 per share for the third fiscal quarter, easily beating the consensus estimate of $2.17. Revenue for the quarter also surpassed expectations, coming in at $2.43 billion compared to the $2.41 billion consensus.

 Moped Helmet Optional: RAD Intel at $0.85/Share 

RAD Intel is becoming the performance engine behind some of the biggest marketing decisions in the world. Its AI tells Fortune 1000 brands exactly where their next dollar delivers — and the results are loud enough for the market to notice.

Backed by Adobe, Fidelity Ventures, and insiders from Google, Meta, Adobe, and YouTube, RAD Intel has already attracted 10K+ investors and secured its Nasdaq ticker: $RADI. Today, the share price is $0.85.

The traction is undeniable — recurring seven-figure partnerships, 2x sales growth heading into 2026, and a 4,900% valuation climb in four years.*

This is your window. Climb on at $0.85 per share while early-stage math and pre-Nasdaq momentum still sit on the same line.

This is a paid advertisement for RAD Intel made pursuant to Regulation A+ offering and involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The valuation is set by the Company and there is currently no public market for the Company's Common Stock. Nasdaq ticker “RADI” has been reserved by RAD Intel and any potential listing is subject to future regulatory approval and market conditions.

INDUSTRY NEWS
META Black Friday Shopping For Google’s Discount Chips 🛒 

$GOOGL ( ▲ 1.53% ) Both share classes of Alphabet were climbing Tuesday, nearly reaching the $4T market cap milestone. The Information reported last night that Meta was organizing a bulk Google-chip-buy for data enters. In classic The Information investigative source only reporting, the details were sparse, but it was enough to send names like $AMD ( ▼ 4.15% ) and $NVDA ( ▼ 2.59% ) falling.

The story goes $META ( ▲ 3.78% ) is planning to buy billions in Google AI chips for 2027 data center build-outs. The news brings competition to the trillions-strong (in imaginary future numbers) AI data center industry. Facebook is ready to spend an estimated $50B on Tensor processing unit chips with Google next year, Bloomberg estimated.

Jim Cramer, CNBC’s Mad Money magician, said in a tweet that Broadcom $AVGO ( ▲ 1.87% ) was the ultimate winner of the possible deal. Google’s TPU chips are sourced from Broadcom, Cramer said, and they would fulfill the contract.

Nvidia, not to be left out, tweeted that it was ‘delighted by’ Google’s success. 😡 

The chip giant said it was generations ahead of the industry. Unlike Nvidia’s do-everything Blackwell chips, Google’s TPU chips are made for specific tasks at Google, but CNBC reported Google lets other companies rent them through Google Cloud.

Google made waves earlier this month with the release of Gemini 3. Nvidia has been on the chopping block recently after a Michael Burry AI bear call and earnings beat, but a muted price reaction shook investor perception.

The chip giant apparently circulated a seven-page document with street analysts to refute Enron-like accounting fraud accusations.

I know what everyone is thinking: “Sounds great, but what old man profited from this?”

Warren Buffett, of $BRK.B ( ▲ 0.15% ) has pulled in a 32% gain on about $4.3B Berkshire spent on a big Google buy in Q3, according to its 13F two weeks ago. Based on a lower average price per share of $200 estimated by the wizards at Whalewisdom.com, Berkshire may be sitting on a 66% gain on its big purchase.

Buffett bought sometime in September, according to the reported share price, but it may have just recorded the quarter closing price near $243. Either way, the old man keeps winning up to the last trades before he steps down this year. 😤

More Earnings Reports: Great Day For Mall-Going Stock Holders 🏭️ 

Alibaba Group $BABA ( ▼ 2.31% ) 

The company beat analyst expectations on both profit and revenue, with adjusted earnings of $2.95/share. The positive surprise was driven by accelerated growth in its China Commerce segment and a double-digit rise in its Cloud Intelligence Group revenue, which hit $4.34 billion.

Abercrombie & Fitch $ANF ( ▲ 37.54% ) 

Abercrombie crushed estimates, reporting an EPS of $2.36 on revenue of $1.3 billion, marking its 12th consecutive quarter of growth.

Kohl's $KSS ( ▲ 42.53% ) 

Kohl's delivered a major surprise by reporting a profit of $0.10/share, easily beating the expected loss of $0.19, on revenue of $3.57 billion (which also beat expectations). The massive stock jump was fueled by significantly improved gross margins, tight inventory control, and a full-year profit forecast raise that signaled a strong holiday season ahead.
