Nasdaq 100 Stocks SEC Filings β October 28, 2026
Across the 12 filings, the NASDAQ-100 mega-cap cohort shows strong top-line momentum led by cloud and AI infrastructure: Alphabet reported revenue up 25% YoY with Google Cloud up 103%, Microsoft grew revenue 18.8% with Microsoft Cloud up 30%, and T-Mobile's Q3 revenue rose 7.4% with net income up 27.3%. Earnings quality is the common weak point: GAAP results at Microsoft and Alphabet were inflated or distorted by investment mark-to-market swings (Microsoft's other income swung from a $3,660M expense to $38M gain, and the OpenAI gain of $207M versus a $3.1B prior-year loss flatters the 32% GAAP EPS growth versus 18% non-GAAP; Alphabet's net income fell 25% as other expense of $8,221M replaced a $12,759M gain). Capital intensity is rising sharply: Microsoft's property and equipment capex more than doubled to $39,367M, while Alphabet's long-term debt jumped to $125,102M from $46,547M at year-end 2025 with $28.7B of senior notes and $12.4B of ATM equity issuance. Capital returns remain robust, with T-Mobile repurchasing $9,564M over nine months (up 27.1%) and ADP lifting treasury stock via $758.8M of buybacks. Insider selling at Meta and Intuitive Surgical was uniformly under Rule 10b5-1 plans and is best read as routine diversification rather than a conviction signal. Market implication: the market is rewarding revenue acceleration in AI and cloud but will increasingly scrutinize GAAP quality, financing needs, and free cash flow conversion.
