• Sales increase of 78 percent in the past quarter
• Nvidia forecasts sales of USD 43 billion (plus/minus 2%) for the first quarter, exceeding market expectations of USD 41.78 billion, as the company expects continued strong demand for its AI chips.
• Gross margin is expected to fall to 71% due to start-up costs for the new Blackwell AI chips, below the 72.2% expected by Wall Street.

Salesforce revenue $CRM (+1.37%)misses expectations and outlook disappoints

• Salesforce reported fourth-quarter revenue late Wednesday that fell short of Wall Street estimates, while earnings from its customer relationship management platform came in higher than expected.
• Revenue rose 8% year-over-year to $9.99 billion for the three months ended Jan. 31, but fell short of the $10.04 billion consensus estimate compiled by FactSet.
• Adjusted earnings per share rose from $2.29 to $2.78, above market expectations of $2.61.
• Shares fell 5.6% in after-hours trading.
• Subscription and support revenue rose 8% to $9.45 billion, while professional services and other increased from $539 million to $542 million.
• Salesforce expects fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings per share of $11.09 to $11.17, which would be an increase from the $10.20 reported in January but below the consensus estimate of $11.20.
• Revenue is expected to increase 7% to 8% to $40.5 billion to $40.9 billion, a slowdown from the 9% growth in fiscal 2025 and below market expectations of $41.37 billion for fiscal 2026.
• For the current quarter, Salesforce expects adjusted earnings per share of $2.53 to $2.55 on revenue of between $9.71 billion and $9.76 billion, which would represent year-over-year growth of 6% to 7%.
• The Street is expecting $2.62 billion and $9.91 billion respectively.

Cryptocurrency $BTC (+2.84%)threatens slide into a bear market

• Bitcoin's price slide accelerated in the meantime on Wednesday afternoon.
• However, the oldest and best-known digital currency stabilized again recently.
• Bitcoin briefly slipped to 85,341 dollars on the Bitstamp trading platform, its lowest level since mid-November last year.
• Most recently, Bitcoin was trading at almost 87,900 dollars and thus back at the level of Tuesday evening.
• Since reaching a record high of more than 109,000 dollars in January, Bitcoin has lost around a fifth at its peak.
• From a market perspective, the cryptocurrency is in a "bear market" at this level.
• This means that prices are set to fall over a longer period of time.
• Bitcoin's most recent slide accelerated on Tuesday after the price fell below 90,000 dollars.
• This caught those investors on the wrong foot who had bet on rising prices with leveraged products.
• These investors now had to close their positions, which intensified the selling pressure in the short term.
• "Bitcoin and Co. are still in the grip of trade disputes," wrote expert Timo Emden from Emden Research.
• Investors fear further punitive tariffs by US President Donald Trump in particular, which is detrimental to general risk appetite.
• At the same time, disappointment over the lack of concrete steps to introduce strategic Bitcoin reserves in the US is likely to resonate.
• In addition, the developments of the past weekend could continue to weigh on sentiment for cryptocurrencies, Emden continued.
• A cyber attack on the service provider Bybit had caused a furor.

Amazon $AMZN (+2.86%)introduces "Alexa+" with enhanced AI functions

• With the new functions, it can converse with users and is available free of charge for Prime customers
• The new version is initially launching in the USA.
• The platform will be rolled out gradually in all countries where Alexa is currently available, enabling more natural control of smart home devices and connection to security cameras.

Snowflake $SNOW (+1.7%)exceeds estimates in the 4th quarter

• Snowflake on Wednesday reported fourth-quarter non-GAAP diluted earnings of $0.30 per share, up from $0.35 a year earlier.

EBay $EBAY (+1.16%)forecasts quarterly revenue

• E-commerce company eBay on Wednesday forecast first-quarter revenue below Wall Street estimates, pointing to weak demand for products such as collectibles and refurbished goods.
• Shares of eBay fell about 7% in extended trading.
• High interest rates and persistent inflation have held back consumer spending in the U.S. for two years, leading to sluggish demand for non-essential items such as collectibles and luxury accessories.
• EBay has been pressured by slowing advertising revenue.
• The company expects revenue for the quarter to be between $2.52 billion and $2.56 billion, compared with analysts' average estimate of $2.59 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG.
• The company expects first-quarter adjusted earnings between $1.32 and $1.36 per share, with the midpoint above estimates of $1.33.
