The explosive <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">growth of ETFs</a> is reshaping the financial landscape, with assets under management now nearing the $15 trillion mark. 
In a recent analysis, JPMorgan strategist Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou delves into the implications of this seismic shift, spotlighting how ETFs are redefining investor behavior, liquidity patterns, and even market risks. Here are his top 10 takeaways that every investor should know.
1. Retail Sentiment Is Driving Volatility Panigirtzoglou notes that the growing dominance of ETFs has made retail investors more influential in driving market sentiment. Unlike institutional investors, retail traders tend to have shorter time horizons, leading to sudden, amplified shifts in market trends when sentiment swings.
2. Longer Rallies, Sharper Corrections The analyst highlights how ETFs encourage momentum-driven markets, fueling prolonged rallies during bullish periods. However, during market reversals, the absence of active management safeguards can result in sharper corrections and increased volatility.

3. Big Money Flows Into Large-Caps Most ETFs are market-cap-weighted, which means they funnel disproportionate capital into large-cap stocks. Panigirtzoglou warns this trend could inflate valuations for mega-caps while crowding out smaller companies, risking capital misallocation.
Companies such as Nvidia Corp, Apple Inc, and Microsoft Corp each currently command over $3 trillion in market cap on the U.S. stock markets.
4. Liquidity Rushes to the Closing Bell As ETFs rebalance towards the end of trading sessions, liquidity has increasingly clustered during these periods. Around one-third of S&amp;P 500 trades now occur in the final 10 minutes of the day, Panigirtzoglou points out, creating a feedback loop of concentrated activity.
5. Concentrated Risks in a Few ETFs The rise of giant ETFs like the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and the Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) has introduced systemic risks. Panigirtzoglou argues that their scale and importance rival those of equity futures, making the market vulnerable to large, single-product flows.
6. Algorithmic Traders Are Thriving Bond ETFs, in particular, have bolstered electronic and algorithmic trading, says Panigirtzoglou. Non-bank market makers now dominate liquidity provision in fixed-income markets, capitalizing on high-volume, low-margin trades.
Popular bond ETFs, such as the iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AGG#NYSE">AGG</a>) and the Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BND#NYSE">BND</a>), are among the largest and most liquid bond market ETFs traded in the U.S.
7. Index Changes Have Outsized Effects Panigirtzoglou emphasizes how ETF-driven flows have magnified the impact of index rebalancing. Stocks entering major indices see outsized gains, while those removed face steeper declines than fundamentals might justify.
8. Corporate Governance Takes a Hit With passive funds dominating, Panigirtzoglou sees a decline in corporate activism. Unlike active managers, passive funds have little incentive to push for governance changes, which could diminish oversight.
9. Market Efficiency Is Declining The shift toward passive investing reduces opportunities for arbitrage, Panigirtzoglou argues, leading to more persistent mispricings. While this could lure active managers back, their ability to extract alpha has waned.
10. Passive Investing's Limit May Be Near Panigirtzoglou suggests there may be a natural ceiling for passive investing. If market inefficiencies grow too large, active managers could stage a comeback, attracting capital back from ETFs to actively managed funds.
The ETF revolution has undoubtedly democratized investing, but Panigirtzoglou warns that its rapid rise comes with unintended consequences. 
From concentrated liquidity to increased systemic risks, the landscape is evolving in ways that demand vigilance. 
As ETFs near the $15 trillion milestone, will passive dominance plateau, or is its impact just beginning?

Over half of the Magnificent 7 stocks have outperformed the S&amp;P 500 in 2024 and all seven have produced higher five-year returns. Benzinga readers pick which Magnificent 7 stock could have the best 2025 and if anyone can catch Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), which continues to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/42099904/nvidia-beats-q3-revenue-eps-estimates-supply-constraints-ding-stock-huang-says-age-of-ai-is-in-full-steam"> beat analyst estimates.</a>
What Happened: Nvidia stock is up 199% year-to-date in 2024 and could have more upside ahead according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42119226/nvidia-analysts-see-stock-best-positioned-in-ai-not-worried-about-guidance-all-systems-go-for-blackwell-ramp">analyst price targets </a>after the company's third-quarter beat and raised guidance.
Benzinga recently asked readers if any of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/magnificent-seven">Magnificent 7 stocks</a> could post stronger stock growth than Nvidia in the next year.
"In 2025, which Magnificent 7 stock could outpace Nvidia in growth?" Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>None – Nvidia will dominate: 48%</li>
<li>Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>): 27%</li>
<li>Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>): 8%</li>
<li>Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>): 7%</li>
<li>Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>): 6%</li>
<li>Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>): 3%</li>
<li>Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>): 2%</li>
</ul>
The poll found the near-majority predicting Nvidia will have the strongest growth in 2025 and dominate the Magnificent 7 stocks once again.
Coming in second place, and the stock that could have the best chance to pass Nvidia according to readers, was Tesla at 27%. This might not be a huge surprise given Tesla's five-year return is the next closest to Nvidia's when looking at the Magnificent 7 stocks.
Here are the current year-to-date and five-year returns of the Magnificent 7 stocks:
<ul>
<li>NVDA: YTD +199.1%, 5-Year +2,634.2%</li>
<li>TSLA: YTD +38.2%, 5-Year +1,446.2%</li>
<li>AMZN: YTD +31.3%, 5-Year +125.5%</li>
<li>META: YTD +61.3%, 5-Year +181.0%</li>
<li>GOOG: YTD +19.7%, 5-Year +158.0%</li>
<li>MSFT: YTD +11.4%, 5-Year +176.2%</li>
<li>AAPL: YTD +23.3%, 5-Year +249.7%</li>
</ul>
Perhaps most surprising in the poll was Apple finishing last despite having the third-best stock performance over the last five years.
Compare the returns above to the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), which tracks the S&amp;P 500, which is up 25.3% year-to-date and up 90.4% over the last five years.
Meanwhile, the Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAGS#NASDAQ">MAGS</a>), which invests in the Magnificent Seven stocks, is up 55.7% year-to-date. The ETF has not been around for five years to track that performance.

Why It's Important: A <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42093025/will-nvidia-deliver-a-blowout-beat-in-q3-poll-says-maybe-not-but-over-half-see-stock-clearing-150">recent Benzinga poll</a> asked readers to predict if Nvidia would beat, miss or meet earnings estimates in the third quarter.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>Meets expectations: 45%</li>
<li>Blowout Beat: 42%</li>
<li>Misses expectations: 13%</li>
</ul>
The majority of Benzinga readers expected the company to meet or beat the estimates from analysts. While more readers expected the company to meet estimates, 42% believed the company would beat estimates Wednesday.
Benzinga readers also predicted what an earnings beat could mean for Nvidia stock going forward.
&#8220;If Nvidia shatters expectations, how high could its stock go by the end of 2024?&#8221; Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>$150 to $180: 55%</li>
<li>$180 to $200: 26%</li>
<li>Above $200: 18%</li>
</ul>
Nvidia shares traded down in after-hours Wednesday before reversing to the green in early Thursday trading. The stock is down 0.5% to $145.20 Thursday at the time of writing.

MicroStrategy Incorporated (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) has experienced an extraordinary 674% increase in its stock price year-to-date in 2024, a rally driven by its massive Bitcoin holdings and the cryptocurrency&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42079799/microstrategys-michael-saylor-to-advocate-for-bitcoin-investment-at-microsoft-board-meeting-offers-to-educate-rumble-ceo-with-the-strategy">record-breaking performance this year</a>.

MicroStrategy Surges 674% In 2024: 5 ETFs That Benefit From MSTR's Bitcoin-Driven Growth

<a href="https://www.reuters.com/technology/crypto-industry-jockeys-seats-trumps-promised-council-2024-11-21/">https://www.reuters.com/technology/crypto-industry-jockeys-seats-trumps-promised-council-2024-11-21/</a>
Nov 21 (Reuters) - A slew of crypto companies including Ripple, Kraken and Circle are jostling for a seat on President-elect Donald Trump's promised crypto advisory council, seeking a say in his planned overhaul of U.S. policy, according to several digital asset industry executives.
Campaigning at <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/trump-cites-china-competition-vowing-create-bitcoin-stockpile-2024-07-27/">a July bitcoin conference</a> in Nashville, Trump promised a new council as part of a crypto-friendly administration. His transition team is discussing how to structure and staff it, and which companies should be included, the people said.
Several top U.S. crypto companies are clamoring for seats at the table. Among them are venture firm Paradigm, said one source, while venture capital giant Andreessen Horowitz's crypto arm a16z is also expected to grab a spot.
"It's being fleshed out, but I anticipate the leading executives from America's bitcoin and crypto firms to be represented," said David Bailey, CEO of Bitcoin Magazine who arranged for Trump to speak at the July conference and has spoken with the President-elect about bitcoin policy.
"People are eager to advise and give input," Bailey said.
A Kraken spokesperson declined to comment, while a spokesperson for a16z did not respond to requests for comment.
Coinbase <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/COIN.O">(COIN.O), opens new tab</a> CEO Brian Armstrong recently met with Trump, said a source familiar with the matter, confirming a Monday Wall Street Journal report. It was unclear what they discussed. The source added that Coinbase, the largest U.S. crypto exchange, was also interested in being on the council.
Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire told the New York Times this month he wants to be on the council, a company spokesperson noted.
The crypto council would likely be housed under the White House's National Economic Council, which coordinates and implements the President's economic policies, or a separate White House apparatus, two of the people said.
It is expected to advise on digital asset policy, work with Congress on crypto legislation, establish Trump's promised bitcoin reserve and coordinate between agencies including the Securities and Exchange Commission, Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the Treasury, they and other executives said. The council may also include enforcement representatives and former policymakers, one of the sources said.
&nbsp;
Trump's transition team, which did not respond to a request for comment, is also discussing creating a crypto "tsar" role, two sources said. One added the tsar would likely lead the council. Trump's team is <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-20/trump-team-mulls-creating-first-ever-white-house-crypto-role">vetting candidates, opens new tab</a> for that role, Bloomberg reported on Wednesday.
Former CFTC Chair Heath Tarbert, chief legal officer at Circle, and former Republican CFTC commissioner Brian Quintenz, head of policy for a16z crypto, have been advising the Trump transition team on crypto policy, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-transition-team-considers-current-former-cftc-officials-agency-chair-2024-11-14/">Reuters previously reported</a>.
Excitement over a crypto-friendly Trump administration has helped push bitcoin to record highs and <a href="https://www.reuters.com/technology/bitcoin-breaks-95000-first-time-optimism-over-trump-crypto-plans-2024-11-21/">closer to the long-awaited $100,000 milestone</a>.
Trump courted support and campaign donations from the sector with promises to be a "crypto president" and end President Joe Biden's crackdown on crypto companies that regulators accused of flouting securities and anti-money laundering laws.
The industry is <a href="https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/crypto-industry-pushes-policy-sea-change-after-trump-victory-2024-11-14/">pushing for</a> executive orders guaranteeing crypto companies' access to banking services, an end to enforcement actions and other changes.
Some consumer groups have warned the crypto industry should not be able to write its own rules, and some of the sources said ethics considerations could slow personnel appointments. But others said it makes sense for industry experts to have a say in critical policy issues.
"It's absolutely the wise choice to put together a council of people who... understand how both the industry ought to be regulated and how to situate the industry to be a strategic asset," said Nathan McCauley, CEO of crypto platform Anchorage Digital, who has urged the Trump team to reverse Biden's stance on crypto.
While presidential advisory councils are not a new concept, there has never been one dedicated to cryptocurrencies, which did not exist until bitcoin's launch in 2009. Biden has multiple councils, including on Science and Technology which was established via executive order in first month he took office.
Kristin Smith, chief executive of crypto trade group the Blockchain Association said setting up the crypto council is something Trump "could do very quickly."

These Analysts Boost Their Forecasts On Wix.com After Upbeat Earnings

East West Bancorp's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWBC#NYSE">EWBC</a>) short percent of float has fallen 10.76% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 4.47 million shares sold short, which is 3.65% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.

How Is The Market Feeling About Yum Brands?

After a move higher of almost 30%, shares of Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WSM#NYSE">WSM</a>) are trading a little lower on Thursday. This is mostly because of two dynamics. One is profit-taking. The second is remorseful buyers taking advantage of the move to exit their losing positions at breakeven.
This is why it is our Stock of the Day.
The shares gapped higher after the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/earnings-beats/24/11/42100904/target-plunges-21-while-williams-sonoma-soars-27-on-same-day">posted strong earnings</a>. A &#8220;gap&#8221; occurs when a stock closes at one price and opens the next day at a price that is much higher. As you can see, that was the case with Williams-Sonoma yesterday.
The closing price on Tuesday was $137.24. The opening price on Wednesday was $172.02. Because there were no trades in between these two levels, there is a blank space or &#8220;gap&#8221; on the chart.
Investors bought aggressively because not only did the company report earnings that were better than estimates, it also raised its operating margin guidance. This was probably more important than the earnings beat.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="532" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/21140935/WilliamsSonoma-1024x532.png" alt="" class="wp-image-659634" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/21140935/WilliamsSonoma-1024x532.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/21140935/WilliamsSonoma-300x156.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/21140935/WilliamsSonoma-768x399.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/21140935/WilliamsSonoma-1536x798.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/21140935/WilliamsSonoma.png 1582w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>

Operating margin is the percentage of profit a company makes after all its costs and expenses. In the quarter, the operating margin was 17.8%. This means that for every dollar of sales, the company earned 17.8 cents.
Going forward, Williams raised its operating margin guidance to a range of 17.8% to 18.2%. If operating margins are increasing, it means the company is becoming more efficient.
But the move higher has stalled out. There are two reasons for this.
The first is profit-taking. Whenever a stock makes a large move higher, there are traders and investors who will take advantage of the move to lock in profits.
The second reason is &#8220;buyer's remorse.&#8221;
As you can see on the chart, the stock made a large move higher in May and formed a peak around the $172.50 level. Some of the investors and traders who bought at the peak came to regret their decision to do so after the price plummeted. They have held onto a losing position ever since.
Now that they have a chance to exit their positions at breakeven, they are placing sell orders. These orders and the orders from the profit takers have, at least for now, made the rally stall out or maybe even end. There is a chance the stock will head lower.

Stock Of The Day: Williams-Sonoma Gaps Up, Stalls Out

Wyoming Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) on Thursday proposed converting Federal Reserve-held gold certificates into Bitcoin to establish <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42080839/cynthia-lummis-says-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-could-take-shape-soon-after-trump-raises-his-hand-and-is-sworn-in">a 20-year strategic</a> Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) reserve.
In an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSKRwaK4Lq4">interview</a> with CNBC, Lummis outlined how this initiative could bolster the US economy, reduce national debt and position Bitcoin as a key asset for the country.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Gold-To-Bitcoin Conversion: A Debt-Free Solution</h3>
Lummis stressed that the proposal wouldn't require new taxpayer dollars. 
Instead, the government could leverage its existing resources, particularly gold certificates held at the Federal Reserve's 12 banks. 
These certificates, currently valued at 1970s prices, could be updated to reflect their fair market value, sold and reinvested into Bitcoin.
"We wouldn't have to spend any new dollars," she explained, pointing out that the United States already holds over 200,000 Bitcoin in asset forfeiture funds, which could act as a foundational reserve. 
Lummis also emphasized the fiscal prudence of the strategy: "This would be an asset that could help shore up the US dollar as the world reserve currency."

Justin Sun Did Just That — And Now He&#8217;ll Eat It &#8216;As Part Of This Unique Artistic Experience&#8217;</a>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Case For A Strategic Bitcoin Reserve</h3>
Highlighting Bitcoin&#8217;s unique properties, Lummis described it as immutable, easily stored, and a hedge against inflation. 
She believes a strategic Bitcoin reserve could mitigate inflation&#8217;s effects, provide financial stability and potentially strengthen the US dollar's global standing.
"American people are still hurting from inflation, from high prices, and they want the national debt reduced," Lummis said. "These are ways to do it with an asset that is immutable and can easily be held by the federal government in a variety of vaults."
Lummis compared the proposal to the historical gold standard, noting its relevance in today's digital age. "We got off the gold standard a long time ago, but this would be a way to create a reserve for the future," she said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Addressing Ethical Concerns</h3>
When asked about potential conflicts of interest, given the growing adoption of Bitcoin among policymakers, Lummis argued for transparency and fairness. 
She revealed that her personal Bitcoin holdings are in a blind trust, ensuring her ability to advocate for the cryptocurrency without bias.
"Bitcoin is legal tender in another country. We need to recognize that as Americans," she stated. 
Lummis compared Bitcoin ownership to commodities like cattle, noting that ethical ownership policies can coexist with advocacy. 
"Quite frankly, I believe it should be okay for people to own Bitcoin without doing what I did and putting it in a blind trust."

Today's Biggest Pre-Market Stock Movers: 10 Top Gainers and Losers on Tuesday

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
Aerwins Technologies&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/awin-stock-quote/">AWIN</a>) stock is plummeting on Tuesday as the company&rsquo;s shares are <a href="https://app.quotemedia.com/data/downloadFiling?webmasterId=90423&amp;ref=318398965&amp;type=PDF&amp;symbol=AWIN&amp;cdn=c72eb168f714d139854f27235d706f2c&amp;companyName=AERWINS+Technologies+Inc.&amp;formType=8-K&amp;formDescription=Current+report+pursuant+to+Section+13+or+15%28d%29&amp;dateFiled=2024-06-17">going to be delisted today</a>!



Aerwins Technologies was sent a delisting notice from the Nasdaq Hearings Panel earlier this year about the danger of its delisting. The company failed to overcome the issues it was facing, which is resulting in its shares being delisted from the Nasdaq Exchange today.



This will result in shares of AWIN stock being suspended from the Nasdaq Exchange when business opens this morning. This will see the exchange file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to remove the shares from its market.



<h2>What&rsquo;s Next for AWIN Stock?</h2>



Aerwins Technologies said that it&rsquo;s considering strategic alternatives alongside this delisting notice. That includes the potential sale or a joint venture to continue its operations.



As a part of that, Aerwins Technologies expects its shares to be listed on an alternative trading market after today&rsquo;s delisting. The company hasn&rsquo;t provided further details about what market this will be.



AWIN stock is down 53.9% as of Tuesday morning. The stock was also down 77.3% since the start of the year when markets closed yesterday.

Why Is Aerwins Technologies (AWIN) Stock Down 54% Today?

Quantum&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/qmco-stock-quote/">QMCO</a>) stock is down on Tuesday after the digital video storage and management company released its <a href="https://www.nasdaq.com/press-release/quantum-reports-fiscal-full-year-2024-financial-results-2024-06-17">fiscal 2024 earnings report</a>.



That report starts with the company&rsquo;s adjusted earnings per share of -29 cents for the year. That&rsquo;s down from the adjusted EPS of 3 cents per share reported by the company during fiscal 2023.



Adding to that is its revenue of $311.6 million for fiscal 2024. That&rsquo;s below the single $350 million estimate from Wall Street. It&rsquo;s also a 26.2% decrease year-over-year from $422.1 million.



Quantum&nbsp;chairman and CEO Jamie Lerner said the following about these results.




&ldquo;Our full year 2024 results reflect a significant reduction of revenue from our largest hyperscale customer, which we had expected would scale down over time but instead stopped placing orders at the end of fiscal Q1 2024.&rdquo;




<h2>QMCO Stock Drops on Guidance</h2>



Things aren&rsquo;t looking much better for Quantum&nbsp;in its fiscal 2025 guidance. This has the company expecting adjusted EPS between -15 cents and -5 cents on revenue ranging from $300 million to $320 million. Analysts are looking for revenue of $354.2 million for the fiscal year.



QMCO stock is down 32.4% as of Tuesday morning. Investors will note that the shares rallied 32.4% yesterday in anticipation of the company&rsquo;s earnings report.
