Canada Goose Draws Buyout Bids, Shares Jump Pre-Market

Canada Goose (GOOS) jumped 15% in premarket trading after CNBC reported that controlling shareholder Bain Capital has received multiple bids to take the luxury parka maker private. Boyu Capital and Advent International have made preliminary offers that value the company at about $1.35 billion, or eight times EBITDA.
Goldman Sachs is advising Bain on the potential deal, with due diligence expected to take less than two months once a buyer is selected.
For Bain, which first invested in 2013 at around $250 million, a deal at this level would represent a strong exit, even though the company is far below its 2018 peak valuation of $7.7 billion.
Shares have already climbed more than 20% this year, supported by improving retail demand in Asia and an ongoing push into direct-to-consumer sales. At the current premarket price, Canada Goose’s valuation stands at roughly $1.29 billion, up from $1.1 billion before the news broke.
The company has faced headwinds from slowing discretionary spending and higher input costs, but it remains a recognized global brand with pricing power in the premium outerwear category.
That brand equity is precisely why private equity firms are circling, the opportunity to stabilize operations outside the public spotlight could unlock new growth.
Investor Angle: I think GOOS has more room to run in the short term. A confirmed deal would likely push shares toward $15–$16, and even rumors alone can keep momentum alive. For traders, this is a name worth buying into, given its strength as take-private speculation heats up.

PVH Lifts Guidance as Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger Deliver

PVH Corp (PVH), the owner of Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger, posted strong second-quarter results that beat Wall Street expectations. Earnings per share came in at $2.52, ahead of the $2.00 consensus, while revenue rose 4% year-over-year to $2.17 billion versus forecasts of $2.12 billion.
The Americas region delivered 11% growth, Europe rose 3%, and Asia saw a modest 1% decline tied to wholesale softness.
Both Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger brands showed healthy momentum, with sales up 5% and 4%, respectively. Net income increased to $224.2 million from $158 million a year ago.
Off the back of this performance, PVH raised its full-year EPS outlook to $10.75–$11.00, up from earlier guidance and above consensus estimates of $10.48. Pre-market, shares gained nearly 8% as investors reacted to the stronger-than-expected quarter.
Despite the strong print, PVH remains down more than 20% year-to-date. Margin pressures and shifting consumer demand have weighed heavily on the stock, and in the last 90 days analysts delivered 12 negative EPS revisions versus zero upgrades.
That’s left the valuation depressed at just 11x forward earnings, a discount to peers in the apparel space.
CEO Stefan Larsson highlighted a “multi-year journey” to make Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger into the most desirable global brands. The latest results suggest progress is real, and the raised guidance reflects confidence in execution despite a choppy macro backdrop.
Investor Angle: I think PVH has turned a corner. With sentiment washed out and valuation attractive, shares could climb back toward $95–$100 as investors reward steady progress. I’d be building a position here, with the expectation that brand momentum and guidance upgrades continue to fuel upside.

All Eyes on Nvidia Earnings After Record Run

The market’s spotlight is firmly on Nvidia (NVDA) as it prepares to report fiscal Q2 earnings after today’s close. Expectations call for EPS of $0.94 versus $0.65 a year ago, with revenue again set to hit record highs.
Analysts have been steadily raising price targets into the $200–$225 range, citing unmatched leadership in AI chips and accelerating adoption of its GB200 Grace Blackwell superchip.
The setup heading into the print is unique. On the negative side, U.S. export restrictions and cooling demand from China could act as a drag.
However, Nvidia’s recent revenue-sharing agreement with the Trump administration re-opened China sales, and the company has signaled it could secure additional licenses for new products. That has many on the Street more optimistic about the outlook than just weeks ago.
Options markets are pricing in a potential $260 billion swing in Nvidia’s market value following the release, a staggering number that shows its influence on the broader market.
The stock has already added over 30% this year and sits just shy of its all-time high. Investors have been piling in, but expectations are muted compared to past “blowout” quarters, meaning even solid results could be enough to keep the rally alive.
Investor Angle: I think Nvidia delivers tonight, which could push its shares into the $190–$200 range quickly. The combination of low expectations and sustained AI leadership makes this one of the best setups of the quarter. I’d be long going into the report, as upside risk clearly outweighs the downside. Get your popcorn ready.

Movers and Shakers

MongoDB Inc. [MDB] – Last Close: $214.34
MongoDB provides enterprise-grade database solutions, with its flagship Atlas cloud platform now driving nearly three-quarters of revenue. The company reported Q2 revenue of $591.4 million, up 24% year-over-year, with non-GAAP EPS swinging to $1.00 per share. Strong Atlas adoption and AI-related demand were central to the beat.
Shares are up more than 31% premarket as management raised full-year guidance, highlighting accelerating AI workloads and new government partnerships. With $2.3 billion in cash and improving free cash flow, MongoDB is showing it can grow while edging closer to sustained profitability.
My Take: MDB looks poised to keep climbing as AI use cases multiply. I think the strong guidance reset means momentum funds and growth investors will chase this move, making pullbacks worth buying.
nCino Inc. [NCNO] – Last Close: $28.69
nCino develops a cloud-based banking operating system used by financial institutions worldwide. The company delivered better-than-expected Q2 results, raising its FY26 subscription revenue outlook to as high as $517.5 million, driven by adoption of its AI-powered Banking Advisor product.
Shares jumped over 9% premarket after management cited stronger U.S. mortgage subscription growth and momentum in Europe, including ABN AMRO going live on its platform. Expanding AI-driven efficiency gains make the story more compelling as banks look to cut costs.
My Take: CNO is quietly becoming an AI-fintech winner. With customer adoption rising and international wins stacking up, I see more upside ahead, especially if banks accelerate digital transitions into 2026.
Weatherford International plc [WFRD] – Last Close: $61.56
Weatherford is a global oilfield services company offering drilling, well construction, and production optimization. Despite geopolitical scrutiny, it has expanded in Russia, where revenue climbed to 7% of its total in H1 2025, offsetting weaker activity in North and Latin America.
Shares gained more than 7% premarket as investors reassessed the company’s cash flow strength, $332 million in Russia alone as of June 30. While the risk of sanctions is real, the firm continues to demonstrate resilience with a diversified global footprint and a 1.6% dividend yield.
My Take: WFRD’s expansion in high-margin regions signals stronger near-term earnings than the market has priced in. I think the stock has rebound potential if crude prices remain firm and investors look past sanction overhangs.
