Personal computers powered by artificial intelligence haven't surged ahead just yet, but demand appears to be strong enough to spur an upgrade cycle. That's a key takeaway from earnings results from Best Buy, Dell and Hewlett-Packard.

MongoDB rebounded in the second quarter with better-than-expected results due to stronger Atlas consumption levels.
The company reported a second quarter net loss of $54.5 million, or 74 cents a share, on revenue of $478.1 million, up 13% from a year earlier. Non-GAAP earnings were 70 cents a share.

Nvidia said its Blackwell processor samples are shipping to customers and demand for its Hopper platform remains strong. The company reported better-than-expected second quarter earnings as data center revenue continued to carry the team.
CrowdStrike said it will take a $30 million subscription revenue impact for the third quarter and each of the remaining fiscal quarters in the fiscal year due to its recent outage. Fiscal 2025 revenue guidance âincludes an estimated impact in the high-single digit millions to professional services revenue in the second half of fiscal year 2025.â
Salesforce reported better than-expected second-quarter results but revenue growth was up 8%. CFO Amy Weaver will also step down.
