TSMC expected to deliver sixth consecutive record quarterly profit
Reuters reports that TSMC is likely to post another record on Thursday, with an LSEG SmartEstimate from 16 analysts pointing to third-quarter net profit of T$746.3 billion ($23.4 billion), up 65%. Anything above T$706.56 billion would be a company high. Last Thursday TSMC reported third-quarter revenue up 50% year-on-year, beating forecasts. Morgan Stanley's Charlie Chan expects full-year revenue growth guidance to be lifted to the low-to-mid 40% range from more than 40%. Investors will also listen for fourth-quarter guidance, gross margins, 2027 AI-chip demand and any word on a Texas expansion. The earnings call is set for 0600 GMT.
Why it mattersTSMC is a key supplier to Nvidia and Apple, so its guidance and capital-spending commentary signal the durability of AI infrastructure demand.
Big banks open earnings season as JPMorgan eyes 17% profit growth
The third-quarter reporting season starts Tuesday with JPMorgan Chase, according to Stocktwits via TradingView.

GuruFocus puts JPMorgan's GF Value at $309.67 against a $332.99 share price, and lists a 1.9% dividend yield and a 26% payout ratio.

NovaGold's third-quarter loss widens to US$36.04 million
NovaGold Resources reported a wider third-quarter net loss of US$36.04 million, or US$0.08 per share from continuing operations. For nine months the loss was US$76.97 million, or US$0.18 per share, which Simply Wall St describes as a modest improvement year to date. The company has no revenue and remains a pure development story built around the Donlin Gold project.
