Nasdaq 100 Movers: APP, ASML

In the latest trading session, Intuit (INTU) closed at $662.42, marking a -1.11% move from the previous day. The stock trailed the S&P 500, which registered a daily loss of 0.74%. Elsewhere, the Dow lost 0.63%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq lost 0.76%.
Prior to today's trading, shares of the maker of TurboTax, QuickBooks and other accounting software had gained 5.39% outpaced the Computer and Technology sector's gain of 0.14% and the S&P 500's gain of 0.79%.
The upcoming earnings release of Intuit will be of great interest to investors. The company's earnings per share (EPS) are projected to be $3.65, reflecting a 9.94% increase from the same quarter last year. In the meantime, our current consensus estimate forecasts the revenue to be $4.53 billion, indicating a 14.23% growth compared to the corresponding quarter of the prior year.
For the full year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $23.1 per share and revenue of $21.12 billion, which would represent changes of +14.64% and +12.16%, respectively, from the prior year.
Additionally, investors should keep an eye on any recent revisions to analyst forecasts for Intuit. These latest adjustments often mirror the shifting dynamics of short-term business patterns. As a result, we can interpret positive estimate revisions as a good sign for the business outlook.
Our research suggests that these changes in estimates have a direct relationship with upcoming stock price performance. To exploit this, we've formed the Zacks Rank, a quantitative model that includes these estimate changes and presents a viable rating system.
Ranging from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), the Zacks Rank system has a proven, outside-audited track record of outperformance, with #1 stocks returning an average of +25% annually since 1988. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate has remained steady. At present, Intuit boasts a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).
From a valuation perspective, Intuit is currently exchanging hands at a Forward P/E ratio of 29. Its industry sports an average Forward P/E of 23.86, so one might conclude that Intuit is trading at a premium comparatively.
We can also see that INTU currently has a PEG ratio of 2.04. This metric is used similarly to the famous P/E ratio, but the PEG ratio also takes into account the stock's expected earnings growth rate. As of the close of trade yesterday, the Computer - Software industry held an average PEG ratio of 1.95.
The Computer - Software industry is part of the Computer and Technology sector. With its current Zacks Industry Rank of 82, this industry ranks in the top 34% of all industries, numbering over 250.
The Zacks Industry Rank evaluates the power of our distinct industry groups by determining the average Zacks Rank of the individual stocks forming the groups. Our research shows that the top 50% rated industries outperform the bottom half by a factor of 2 to 1.
Keep in mind to rely on Zacks.com to watch all these stock-impacting metrics, and more, in the succeeding trading sessions.

Intuit (INTU) Suffers a Larger Drop Than the General Market: Key Insights

Looking today at week-over-week shares outstanding changes among the universe of ETFs covered at ETF Channel, one standout is the SPDR NYSE Technology ETF (Symbol: XNTK) where we have detected an approximate $260.0 million dollar outflow -- that's a 14.5% decrease week over week (from 6,330,012 to 5,410,012). Among the largest underlying components of XNTK, in trading today Shopify Inc (Symbol: SHOP) is down about 1.7%, Booking Holdings Inc (Symbol: BKNG) is off about 0.1%, and Intuit Inc (Symbol: INTU) is lower by about 0.5%. For a complete list of holdings, visit the XNTK Holdings page » The chart below shows the one year price performance of XNTK, versus its 200 day moving average:
Looking at the chart above, XNTK's low point in its 52 week range is $159.43 per share, with $295.79 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $280.19. Comparing the most recent share price to the 200 day moving average can also be a useful technical analysis technique -- learn more about the 200 day moving average ».
Exchange traded funds (ETFs) trade just like stocks, but instead of ''shares'' investors are actually buying and selling ''units''. These ''units'' can be traded back and forth just like stocks, but can also be created or destroyed to accommodate investor demand. Each week we monitor the week-over-week change in shares outstanding data, to keep a lookout for those ETFs experiencing notable inflows (many new units created) or outflows (many old units destroyed). Creation of new units will mean the underlying holdings of the ETF need to be purchased, while destruction of units involves selling underlying holdings, so large flows can also impact the individual components held within ETFs.

Today's Featured Research Reports
Shares of Amazon.com have gained +3% over the past six months against the Zacks Internet - Commerce industry’s gain of +3.8%. The company’s international expansion and diversification across e-commerce, AWS cloud services, advertising, and streaming create multiple revenue streams while reducing concentration risk. Management's Q4 2025 guidance projects net sales of $206-$213 billion with operating income between $21-$26 billion, reflecting operational efficiency gains.
AI integration across operations enhances personalization, logistics, and AWS offerings, strengthening competitive positioning. The Zacks analyst expect 2025 net sales to grow 10.6% from 2024.
However, substantial capital expenditure requirements for AI infrastructure and data centers strain financial resources and compress margins. The company's expanding debt burden reduces financial flexibility amid rising interest rates. Intensifying competition from Walmart, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud is an overhang.

Toyota Motor’s shares have outperformed the Zacks Automotive - Foreign industry over the past six months (+20.9% vs. +12.4%). The surge in hybrid adoption is boosting the company’s sales. The RAV4 model, with hybrid variants that make up about half of the company’s sales, is America's top-selling SUV. Upbeat outlook for fiscal 2026 sales sparks optimism. Toyota Motor’s cost optimization efforts are expected to be a tailwind to operating income in fiscal 2026. Investor-friendly moves also spark optimism.
However, the company’s operating income is expected to be affected by material prices, foreign exchange rate and tariffs imposed by the U.S. government on vehicle and vehicle parts imports, along with investment in human resources and growth areas in fiscal 2026. Capital expenditure for fiscal 2026 is expected to flare up, which could put pressure on near-term cash flows. The zacks analyst maintains a cautious stance on the stock now.
(You can read the full research report on Toyota Motor here >>>)
Shares of Intuit have underperformed the Zacks Computer - Software industry over the past six months (-14.5% vs. -4%). The company is witnessing higher expenses due to increased investment in marketing, and engineering teams are likely to impact its bottom-line results. Seasonality in tax-related sales further impacts profitability outside peak filing quarters.
Nevertheless, Intuit is well-positioned in the financial and tax management market, with its core products, QuickBooks and TurboTax. Its first-quarter fiscal 2026 results reflected a rise in revenues across all segments. Its strategy of shifting its business to a cloud-based subscription model aims to generate stable revenues over the long run.
Divestment of non-core businesses has boosted its focus on digital businesses, while the Credit Karma acquisition expanded the customer base, accelerating revenue growth and broadening personal finance offerings.
(You can read the full research report on Intuit here >>>)
Eastman Kodak’s shares have outperformed the Zacks Electronics - Miscellaneous Products industry over the past six months (+44.1% vs. +24.1%). This microcap company with a market capitalization of $812.65 million presents a mixed reward as it shifts from legacy print to advanced manufacturing. AMC (Advanced Materials and Chemicals) is becoming a key growth driver, supported by FDA-certified pharmaceutical production, reshoring tailwinds, and coating expertise, with Q3 2025 revenue up 15% YoY and now over 30% of sales.
U.S.-based vertical integration has improved margins, while traction in the PROSPER ULTRA 520 has returned Print EBITDA to profitability. The Series C preferred exchange also removed a major overhang.
However, risks remain significant. Print volumes continue to decline amid secular headwinds, debt and restrictive credit terms limit financial flexibility despite the pension reversion, and execution risk around pension asset monetization is high. Earnings remain volatile, capital intensity is elevated, and newer investments have yet to demonstrate durable, scaled profitability.
(You can read the full research report on Eastman Kodak here >>>)
Shares of Armanino Foods of Distinction have outperformed the Zacks Food - Miscellaneous industry over the past six months (+42.8% vs. -8.9%). This microcap company with a market capitalization of $351.49 million benefits from a leading U.S. foodservice pesto franchise, strong chef loyalty, and category tailwinds toward global and fusion cuisines. Q3 FY25 sales rose 11% YoY to $19.7M, driven by core pesto demand, broker expansion, and growing foodservice and international channels.
Ongoing automation and facility upgrades support scalable growth into adjacencies like frozen pastas, while a debt-free balance sheet, $24.6M cash, and active buybacks provide financial flexibility.
However, the thesis is tempered by high customer concentration (one distributor >50% of sales), rising inventory and working capital drag, recurring cash-settled phantom stock obligations, tariff and sourcing exposure, reliance on co-packers, and operating expenses growing faster than revenue. Execution discipline is required to sustain margins as growth investments continue.

Exchange traded funds (ETFs) trade just like stocks, but instead of ''shares'' investors are actually buying and selling ''units''. These ''units'' can be traded back and forth just like stocks, but can also be created or destroyed to accommodate investor demand. Each week we monitor the week-over-week change in shares outstanding data, to keep a lookout for those ETFs experiencing notable inflows (many new units created) or outflows (many old units destroyed). Creation of new units will mean the underlying holdings of the ETF need to be purchased, while destruction of units involves selling underlying holdings, so large flows can also impact the individual components held within ETFs.
