Microsoft Earnings, Peloton Earnings

Today's Above Avalon daily update includes the following stories:

  • Microsoft Earnings

  • Peloton Earnings

In today’s update, we will wrap up our Big Tech earnings reviews with Microsoft. We will then conclude the discussion with a look at Peloton earnings.

To set the scene, Microsoft and Peloton are in some ways complete opposites. Microsoft has been reporting some of the cleanest, all-around solid earnings releases in Big Tech. Peloton is in the most precarious of positions in terms of companies that we check in on from time to time. It’s been six months since we looked at Peloton’s earnings.
