This week, several companies will host their earnings calls. If you don鈥檛 have time to sit through the full sessions, check out the highlights or transcripts for the key updates. For example, I hadn鈥檛 realized Applied Digital (APLD) had separated its cloud business into ChronoScale (NASDAQ: CHRN), a setup similar to Bit Digital and WhiteFiber.

Thanks for being part of our journey - see you next week!
