Google (NASDAQ:GOOG[8]) — InvestorPlace‘s Stock of the Week[9] — is one of many tech companies reporting earnings this week[10], with the report slated for tomorrow after the bell. The search giant got a slight boost yesterday on news of higher shipment targets for its Nexus 7 tablets as well.
Yahoo (NASDAQ:YHOO[11]) released its quarterly numbers after the bell yesterday. The company — headed by Google alum Marissa Mayer[12] — beat EPS expectations by a hefty 13 cents, but the stock still slipped after-hours.
Intel (NASDAQ:INTC[13]) also reported yesterday and missed expectations by one penny. INTC is a contender in this year’s Best Stocks of 2013 contest[14] and was chosen by InvestorPlace editor Jeff Reeves[15]. It’s currently sitting in fifth place with 6% year-to-date gains, but Reeves still believes in its prospects[16].
Two Harbors (NYSE:TWO[17]) is another contender in the contest and was the early leader. It recently slipped to second place, though, and remains there despite yesterday’s 3% gain. Still, that’s not too shabby considering it the reader submission into the contest[18].
Adobe Systems (NASDAQ:ADBE[19]) announced a new video streaming system[20] last week called Adobe Primetime. News of the product, which aims to make it easier for companies to deliver streaming video content[21], caused the stock to jump as high as 2.5% the following day. ADBE has gained 20% year-to-date.
