FAANG earnings' week, technology stocks soar
Asian stocks develop individually, Japanese stocks fall for 3 consecutive days, Korean stocks rise 0.6%

The earnings season is in full swing and will reach its peak on Thursday, when all FAANG stocks (except Netflix) will announce third-quarter results.
Analysts expect that Facebook (FB.US)'s performance will exceed expectations. The analyst expects Facebook's total revenue to increase by 14% over the same period last year to US$20.16 billion, which is higher than the US$19.76 billion forecast announced by FactSet. This figure also shows that, compared with the 11% growth affected by the epidemic in the previous quarter, the company's growth this quarter is even greater. GAAP earnings per share for the third quarter are expected to be US$2.04, exceeding Wall Street’s estimate of US$1.89.
Japanese stocks closed down 67 points
