Roku Beats Q3 Estimates, Stock Plummets on Weak Outlook (4 min read)

Shares of Roku dropped more than 17% in extended trading after the company gave a weak Q4 guidance. Roku reported Q3 earnings and revenue that are better than analysts expected. Overall revenue was 12% higher year-over-year and the total streaming hours was also up 21% during the same period. However, with economic uncertainty and the likelihood of companies canceling ad budgets, Roku expects to see a decline in revenues for the holiday season and projected lower earnings for Q4. They believe the slowdown should be temporary but it's hard to predict when it will stabilize or rebound.

Fed delivers big rate hike, signals possible smaller increases ahead (4 min read)

The Fed approved the fourth consecutive rate hike for another 0.75% increase. This brings the key rate to a target range of 3.75% - 4%, the highest since 2008. Fed chairman Jerome Powell said the peak rate that was expected from the last meeting is now higher. He dismissed the idea that rate hikes will be paused any time soon but it may come at a slower pace which will be discussed in the next meeting or two. As the only anticipation is for a slower pace, economists are hoping that the rate hike in December will be at 0.5% and follow by lower hikes in 2023.

Private payroll growth remained strong in October while the worker pay rose as well. The number of jobs added was higher than estimated and the previous month. Most of the job gains were in the services-related industries and the losses were in goods-producing sectors. ADP’s chief economist said goods-producers are pulling back because they are sensitive to interest rates. While this is a sign that the Fed’s rate hikes are starting to take effect, it's only affecting certain sectors in the labor market.
