It's also good news for tech stock investors. All Mag 7 stocks are up midday. Nvidia is hovering around $100 midday after its Monday tumble caused by a potential delayed delivery of its next-generation AI chips.

Warner Bros. sinks on significant earnings miss
Warner Bros. Discovery stock tumbled 8.5% after the company announced disappointing earnings.

Warner Bros. Discovery reported a net loss of $10 billion, which includes a $9.1 billion non-cash goodwill impairment charge from the Networks segment.
“While I am certainly not dismissive of the magnitude of this impairment, I believe it’s equally important to recognize that the flip side of this reflects the value shift across business models,” said Warner Bros. CFO Gunnar Wiedenfels during the earnings call.
Eli Lilly pops on strong earnings and outlook
Eli Lilly stock surged 8% midday after the pharmaceutical company reported upbeat second-quarter earnings.
The drug maker earned $3.92 per adjusted share, up 86%, beating the estimated $2.6 billion. Quarterly revenue was $11.3 billion, a 36% increase, and higher than the $9.92 billion Wall Street expected.

The revenue was primarily driven by the diabetes drug Mounjaro, weight loss injection Zepbound, and cancer drug Verzenio.
CEO David Ricks said in a CNBC interview that they see “unbelievable demand” for their weight loss drug Zepbound. “We're not even trying that hard to promote this drug," Ricks said.
Eli Lilly raised 2024 full-year revenue guidance by $3 billion.
Viatris up after earnings beat
Viatris stock added 8% following its second-quarter earnings beat.
The drug maker earned 69 cents per share on $3.79 billion in revenue. Analysts anticipated 68 cents and $3.78 billion.
