Earnings Beat Expectations (Despite Olympic Comparisons) Comcast’s Q3 results trounced Street forecasts. Net income of $3.33 billion (¥8.2% YoY) translated to $0.90 GAAP EPS, or $1.12 adjusted EPS (vs. ≈$1.10 consensus) on $31.2 billion revenue thewrap.com.

Citi Stuns Markets by Slashing Loan Rate – See What’s Next for Borrowers & Stocks
