Zeta Global ($ZETA (-2,71%)
) is taking the field by storm!
When the market first panics and then realizes it simply misread the numbers…
Last night after the earnings call, the classic drama unfolded: Robinhood and automated financial scrapers confused the GAAP EPS ($0.03) with the adjusted non-GAAP expectations. The result: a shock sell-off of nearly -6% to -7% in after-hours trading due to a fabricated “earnings miss.”
The hard facts:
- Beat & Raise: $443 million in revenue (+44% YoY), EBITDA and free cash flow at record levels, and a significant upward revision to the 2026 full-year forecast.
- The outcome: No sooner had the confusion cleared and regular trading resumed than the well-deserved upward correction followed (+13%).
Behind the scenes, there are already growing calls for major investors to take a closer look and gather evidence regarding these misleading data reports to determine the extent to which market manipulation was at play.
Personally, as of today, I have a very official, personal bone to pick with Robinhood xd.
To those who capitalized on the dip in European trading this morning and last night: Congratulations on your returns.
