Home Depot reports before the open on Tuesday, August 18, and it is the single most closely watched release of the week. As one of the largest home-improvement retailers in the world, its results offer one of the clearest real-time signals on whether housing-adjacent consumer spending is holding up or quietly softening.
Baidu and Klarna also report Tuesday morning, making it the heaviest single day of the week. Baidu's numbers will draw attention from anyone tracking the pace of AI adoption and digital advertising in China, while Klarna, fresh from its public listing, gives investors their first look at how the buy-now-pay-later leader is performing as a publicly traded company.

Monday kicks off the week with a cluster of before-the-open reports, including H World Group, BitFuFu, InspireMD, AXE COMPUTE, and Freightos, joined after the close by Fabrinet, XP Inc., Flexsteel Industries, DocGo, and Yalla Group. Fabrinet in particular matters to anyone following optical networking and AI infrastructure demand, given its role as a contract manufacturer for high-speed connectivity components.
Across the week of August 17 through August 21, 103 companies are scheduled to report, with the weight skewed heavily toward morning releases, so investors will need to move quickly on Tuesday especially, when the Home Depot, Baidu, and Klarna reports all land within the same pre-market window. Amer Sports rounds out the Tuesday morning slate for those tracking premium consumer brands.
