Earnings season is almost done—but aಞ big fin🦩ale is expected this week. 

More than 90% of reports from S&P 500 companies are in, according to a Monday note from Oppenheimer, which said third-quarter profits are up 6.8% year-over-year—with eight of the benchmark index’s 11 sectors reporting rising earnings—on the back of 5% revenue growth. 

Those numbers are a bit higher than FactSet’s “blended” figure, which combines reported results with estimates for those yet to announce; as of Friday, those were at 5.4% for profits and 5.5% for revenue. “Resu🃏lts are showing a robust third quarter,” Oppenheimer wrote.

Still, some of the biggest events on the calendar remain ahead. Retailers Walmart (WMT) and Lowe’s (LOW) are set to deliver results Tuesday, while Target (TGT) and TJX (TJX) are expected to deliver their numbers a day later. Taken together, the results—and any updates to the companies’ outlooks—could offer fresh perspective on the 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:state of the consumer ahead of Black Friday. 

The main event, however, may come Wednesday after the bell, when chip giant Nvidia (NVDA) is set 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:to report results. Bi🦩g Tech broadly has so far exceeded Wall Street’s earnings growth expectations in the third-quarter, UBS strategist Jonathan Golub noted last week.

The last of the 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Magnificent Seven tech giants to report, Nvidia—one of the best-performing stocks in the S&P 500 this year—is expected to both deliver big revenue growth and illustrate the state of ongoing demand for the technology underpinning 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:artificial intelligence. 

Nvidia is “the most dominant stock in the market,” Bank of America analysts wrote in a Sunday note, saying it is responsible for a fifth of the S&P 500's return over the past 12 months. “With the market 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:taking a breather last week following 💙the election rally, we believe Nvidia earnings can dictate the near-term direction of the market.”

Correction: Nvidia's results are due after Wednesday's close. An earlier version of this article incorrectly said they were due Thursday.
