- 2.Anthropic is expected to turn profitable in Q2 2026, significantly ahead of its previous 2028 target, with sales doubling quarter-over-quarter to $10.9B.
- 3.Intuit shares dropped 13% after TurboTax results failed to meet buyside expectations and management refrained from endorsing long-term guidance.
