Investors will also examine Cash App’s performance. Cash App inflows are expected to rise to $89.47 billion from $78.80 billion. Its gross profit is also forecast to increase to $1.97 billion from $1.62 billion.

Gross payment volume is expected to reach $77.16 billion, compared with $69.28 billion in the previous-year period. These figures will help show whether Block is attracting more payment activity and generating stronger profits from its financial services.

As of now, Block (XYZ) shares are trading near $76.35, up around 17% this year, after recovering from a drop toward $72.50.

Circle (CRCL): Can USDC Growth Support Earnings?

Next we’ve Circle Internet Group (CRCL), which is scheduled to release its Q3 earnings report on November 4. Investors will be watching whether growth in its USDC stablecoin can support earnings as interest rates put pressure on its income.

USDC in circulation reached $74.58 billion in Q3, up from $73.3 billion at the end of Q2. This gives Circle more reserves to manage, but lower interest rates could reduce the returns it earns on those funds.

Despite the increase in USDC circulation, analysts expect Circle’s earnings per share to fall around 37% year over year to $0.37–$0.40. Revenue is forecast at $788 million to $796.95 million, while adjusted EBITDA is expected to reach $210.8 million.

Circle shares recently traded near $72.54, down 29% over two months. 

Riot Platforms (RIOT): Can AI Data Centres Offset Mining Pressure

Bitcoin mining revenue is expected to drop 29.8% to $112.85 million, even though Riot is forecast to mine 1,628 BTC, up from 1,406 BTC a year earlier. This difference shows how mining revenue depends not only on production but also on Bitcoin prices and mining economics.
