These are the stocks on my watchlist (03/21) - NVDA entering Quantum Computing!

Hi! I am an ex-prop shop equity trader. This is a daily watchlist for short-term trading: I might trade all/none of the stocks listed, and even stocks not listed! I am targeting potentially good candidates for short-term trading; I have no opinion on them as investments. The potential of the stock moving today is what makes it interesting, everything else is secondary.

News: [London's Heathrow Airport Shut Friday Due To Power Outage](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-21/london-s-heathrow-airport-shut-friday-due-to-power-outage)

Overall, mainly earnings today.

[**NKE (Nike)**](https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=NKE&p=d) \- EPS of $0.54 vs. $0.30 expected. Revenue of $11.3B vs. $11.02B expected. Despite beating expectations, sales/profits declined YoY in NA/China/Online. NKE gave a negative earnings outlook, and stated Q4 revenue would decline low-to-mid-teens (10-15%), mainly due to margin pressure from new tariffs. Pretty brutal move. I remember earnings from last year were pretty bad mainly due to weaker demand in China/Online segments. Overall a victim of tariffs, I don't consider this investible for now but things will change if we get any new news regarding tariffs, which are the main headwinds here. IIRC 25% of NKE's shoes are made in China.

[**NIO**](https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=NIO&p=d)**-** Revenue of $2.7B in Q4 2024. Vehicle deliveries rose 45.2% YoY (including Onvo vehicles). Net loss widened to RMB 7.11B, a 32.5% YoY increase. Despite the increase in cars sold, they suffered a loss of \~$1B. They've never been profitable since they've started, so reading a little deeper into their reports, there's still concern about liquidity due to current liabilities being higher than current assets this year (a very bad sign when you want to borrow). They cited EV demand in China remains strong, especially in the premium BEV segment. NIO holds a 40% market share in the $40K-$50K car segment (I'm rounding here after conversion).

[**NVDA (NVIDIA)**](https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=NVDA&p=d)**/Quantum Computing stocks**\- Announces that they will be building a quantum lab in Boston. This has moved all the quantum computing stocks to the downside- obviously NVDA has market power in whatever industry they want to enter and compete in and most companies interested in quantum computing will likely prefer their services over the rest of the smaller players. Was the "quantum computing is a decade away" comment a brutal play to make the quantum computing sector weaker before his entry? If so, then bravo, that's Game of Thrones worthy scheming.

**Ticker:** [**AAL (American Airlines)**](https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=AAL&p=d)**,** [**UAL (United Airlines)**](https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=UAL&p=d)**,** [**JBLU (JetBlue Airways)**](https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=JBLU&p=d)

London Heathrow fire triggered power outage, delaying around 1,300 flights. Operational impact could weigh on short-term sentiment for airline names. Nothing too interesting I'm watching, but I think it's worth noting if we see continued slowdowns and ripple effects from this. Delays and reroutes raise operational costs (like we saw in the CRWD outages affecting airlines last year).
