Dow Jones12-10

By WSJ Staff

Oracle $(ORCL)$: The software maker's earnings, due after the close, will offer investors a window into its debt-fueled spending spree and the broader artificial-intelligence boom. Shares rose about 1% in premarket trading.

Adobe $(ADBE)$, another software company bidding to become an AI powerhouse, is also due to post results this afternoon, as is chip-design software maker Synopsys $(SNPS)$.

Aegon $(AEG)$: The insurance and asset-management group said it would change its name to Transamerica and shift its head office from the Netherlands to the U.S., while also unveiling a buyback plan. Shares skidded in Holland.

GE Vernova (GEV): The maker of gas turbines and other power equipment, which has been riding the AI boom, issued rosy financial guidance and raised its dividend and share-buyback authorization. Shares jumped in premarket trading.

Amazon (AMZN): The e-commerce stalwart said it would invest $35 billion in India over five years. The news came on the heels of Microsoft $(MSFT)$ announcing its own $17.5 billion, four-year spending plan.

Cracker Barrel $(CBRL)$: The restaurant chain's adjusted per-share quarterly loss was smaller than expected, but the company cut its annual outlook. The controversy over its scrapped new logo hit sales. Shares skidded 11% in off-hours trading.

GameStop $(GME)$: The videogame retailer's quarterly revenue fell, as hardware, accessories and software sales declined. Shares in the original meme stock dropped 6% premarket.

Chewy $(CHWY)$: The online pet-food retailer will report its results before the bell.
