Update: Tilray (TLRY) stock is trading 13% higher in Monday's premarket as earnings came in well ahead of forecasts. Revenue jumped to $155 million and the company posted a net income of $6 million.

Tilray stock is still falling ahead of earnings before the bell on Monday. The cannabis stock has been on a long-term decline as a result of waning retail interest. Hitting a high of $67 early last year, Tilray closed Monday at $6.42. The stock had been caught up in the meme stock madness and duly suffered the fallout when the crowd moved on.

Tilray (TLRY) stock news

Tilray reports earnings before the open on Monday. Earnings per share (EPS) are expected to come in at -$0.13 while revenue is expected to be $239 million. Cantor Fitzgerald is forecasting more pain for shareholders saying ahead of earnings "Unless the company issues bullish forward commentary, we expect the stock to face pressure from the November quarter print." The opening up of cannabis markets and impending legalization has not seen the follow-through that many retail investors had hoped for. This has seen continued pressure on the stock price despite growing revenues. Revenue has grown from $47 million a year ago to the current $239 forecast. However, this has not seen a resulting profit with EPS remaining firmly in the red. The loss in quarter one increased markedly and this will need to be addressed.

Tilray (TLRY) stock forecast

The trend remains firmly bearish with old levels being targetted sub $5. $2.43 is the low from March 2020 and unless something changes this is where the chart is headed. A negative RSI and MACD coupled with a strong downtrend and reduced retail interest.

GBP/USD ranges below 1.3450 amid US-Iran uncertainty, ahead of US data

GBP/USD keeps its range below 1.3450 in the European session on Tuesday. Uncertainty surrounding US-Iran talks drives traders toward a safe-haven currency such as the US Dollar, while undermining the risk-sensitive British Pound. All eyes remain on the US JOLTS data and Mideast headlines.

EUR/USD flatlines above 1.1500, awaits US jobs data

EUR/USD holds steady around 1.1505 in European trading hours on Tuesday. Markets remain cautious ahead of a slew of US jobs data, starting with the JOLTS Job Openings Survey later today. However, the downside appears capped by hot Eurozone inflation in July, bolstering the case for a European Central Bank rate hike at the next meeting.

Gold consolidates above $4,050 amid Fed hike bets and Iran uncertainty

Gold seesaws between tepid gains and minor losses during the Asian session as traders seem hesitant and opt to wait for further developments surrounding the Middle East crisis. The US Dollar struggles to build on the previous day's solid bounce from the lowest level since Mid-June and acts as a tailwind for the bullion. However, the uncertainty over US-Iran peace talks helps limit the downside for the buck.

Ripple and Stellar steady as derivatives data points to easing downside pressure

Ripple and Stellar show mixed price action, with XRP holding above the key $1 support zone while XLM faces rejection at $0.173.

US JOLTs report in focus

In the US, the June JOLTs report will be in the spotlight. Job openings have increased modestly this year, which has historically predicted rising wage cost pressures ahead. June trade balance data will also be released in the afternoon and the preliminary reading pointed towards a stable trade deficit from May. The Fed's Schmid (non-voter, hawk) will be on the wires overnight.

9-3: Is the Federal Reserve’s vote tally Warsh's new forward guidance?

The rate did not move. Neither did the statement, and that’s the more interesting fact. Set the July 29 Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) statement beside the one issued on June 17, and the two documents are identical apart from a single verb and a paragraph at the bottom naming three dissenters.
