Q3 marked the company\u2019s first quarter in over 15 years of simultaneous 20% plus organic growth in both top- and bottom-line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is partly why Wall Street firms remain bullish as ever on ORCL stock heading into the results. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consensus rating on the AI infrastructure firm sits at \u201cstrong buy\u201d currently \u2013 with the mean price target of $254 indicating potential upside of nearly 25% from here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plus, a near 1% dividend yield makes Oracle Corp even more attractive as a long-term holding.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2026\/06\/09\/options-data-reveals-how-oracle-stock-may-respond-to-its-q4-earnings-tomorrow\/\">Options data reveals how Oracle stock may respond to its Q4 earnings tomorrow<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\">Invezz<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oracle (ORCL) shares remain in focus ahead of the artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure firm\u2019s Q4 earnings set to be released tomorrow, June 10, after market close.\u00a0 Consensus is for the company to report $1.96 a share (EPS) of adjusted earnings on $19.1 billion in revenue \u2013 about a 20% growth on the top-line and 15% [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5516,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5515","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-stock"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5515","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5515"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5515\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5516"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5515"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5515"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitalmarkettrends.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5515"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
