Amazon’s third-quarter report on Thursday comes after its revenue forecast for the quarter was lower than investors expected. The online retailer reported record sales at its recent two-day Prime Big Deals Days event in October. 

Coca-Cola’s Wednesday report will show whether the world’s largest soft drink maker can deliver on the increased outlook it released after reporting a 10% jump in North American sales.

Several telecom providers will report earnings this week. T-Mobile will deliver results on Wednesday after the phone company raised its expected subscriber growth during its most recent quarterly report. AT&T will also report on Wednesday, while Verizon will deliver its quarterly financial update on Tuesday. 

GE Aerospace will report its third-quarter earnings on Tuesday, and analysts expect the aircraft engine maker to grow its quarterly revenue. Boeing’s report on Wednesday follows the aircraft maker’s announcement that it would lay off 17,000 workers as it grapples with a worker strike.
