Dow Jones Futures: Snowflake, Broadcom, HPE Are Big Earnings Movers; Tesla Cybercab Event Due
Snowflake, Broadcom and Hewlett Packard Enterprise are flagged as major earnings movers as Tesla’s Cybercab event approaches. The setup is a cross-current of high-growth software and chip exposure against HPE’s thin profitability, with the next reports likely to separate durable earnings strength from event-driven momentum.
Investor's Business Daily identified Snowflake, Broadcom and Hewlett Packard Enterprise among the stocks likely to move around upcoming earnings, while Tesla's Cybercab event adds a separate catalyst to the broader market calendar.
The companies enter the discussion with materially different financial profiles. Snowflake's fiscal-year revenue was $4.7B, up 29.2% YoY, but its net margin was -28.4% and diluted EPS was $-3.95. Broadcom reported $63.9B of revenue, up 23.9% YoY, alongside a 36.2% net margin and $4.77 diluted EPS. HPE's revenue was $34.3B, up 13.8% YoY, while its net margin was 0.2% and diluted EPS was $-0.04.
For Snowflake, the key linkage is between its 29.2% YoY revenue growth and the company's still-negative earnings profile; an earnings reaction will likely hinge on whether growth remains strong enough to offset the loss-making base. Broadcom combines 23.9% YoY revenue growth with positive earnings and a 36.2% net margin, giving its report a clearer profit lever. HPE's 13.8% YoY revenue growth is paired with almost no net profitability, making execution on revenue less informative unless it reaches the bottom line.
The size and direction of any eventual move cannot be grounded from available information alone. The next useful catalysts will be the named earnings dates and the companies' forthcoming revenue, margin and EPS disclosures. For Snowflake, revenue growth and the path away from a -28.4% net margin are the central figures; for Broadcom, the durability of $4.77 diluted EPS and the 36.2% net margin matter most; and for HPE, investors will need evidence that $-0.04 diluted EPS and a 0.2% net margin are improving. Tesla's event timing and operational details about Cybercab remain open questions for the market.
The earnings calendar leaves SNOW, AVGO and HPE as mixed setups, with AVGO’s profitable growth standing apart from SNOW’s losses and HPE’s near-zero margin; TSLA remains an event-driven catalyst without enough detail for a directional read.
The available evidence does not support a single-name directional trade: the three earnings profiles point in different directions, while the source supplies no dates, consensus estimates or guidance to define the likely surprise. Broadcom has the strongest fundamental base in the data, but Snowflake’s faster revenue growth and HPE’s thin profitability leave the group’s aggregate read mixed.
The read fails if the missing earnings dates, consensus estimates or guidance reveal a materially different setup, or if the Cybercab event supplies company-specific information not included here.

Price context does not establish that the story caused the move.
Broadcom’s $63.9B revenue, 23.9% YoY growth, 36.2% net margin and $4.77 diluted EPS provide the clearest concrete evidence of profitable expansion among the named earnings movers.
Snowflake’s -28.4% net margin and $-3.95 diluted EPS, together with HPE’s 0.2% net margin and $-0.04 diluted EPS, show that growth exposure in the group is not uniformly translating into earnings.
