IJR News — today's news from every sideMarkets await Q2 2026 earnings from MKL, LHXFinance — Jul 20, 2026Several major firms are due to report Q2 2026 results this week, including Markel Group, L3Harris Technologies, Mullen Group, Las Vegas Sands, and LVMH, with analysts forecasting varied EPS and revenue and some offering guidance updates. Expectations range from Markel’s roughly $30.64 EPS and multi‑billion revenue to L3Harris around $2.80 per share, Mullen Group about $0.23, LVS near $0.77, and LVMH around $2.51 per share for the quarter. LVS Posts Q2 2026 Revenue, Expands Buyback — Jul 26, 2026Las Vegas Sands posted Q2 2026 revenue of about $3.154 billion, net income of $346 million, and EPS of $0.53, while expanding its buyback to $6 billion through 2029 as it continues heavy reinvestment in Macao and other properties; this suggests a stronger focus on capital returns even as investment costs affect near-term margins. A wave of institutional buyers—Renaissance Technologies, Cumberland Partners, AQR, Norges Bank, Arrowstreet, M&T Bank, Bank of New York Mellon, and others—have boosted LVS holdings, and the stock appears undervalued on a P/E basis versus industry peers, with upside potential tied to property openings like The Londoner and margin recovery amid renovation costs and market conditions.
