Amazon.com Inc.is expected to report second-quarter earnings after the market closes on Thursday. Analysts are forecasting strong top- and bottom-line growth for the quarter ended in June, fueled by e-commerce sales and Prime membership growth, as well as improvements in its enterprise cloud offering, Amazon Web Services. While the company said it recorded its best day ever of online sales during Prime Day earlier this month, those results and their impact on Prime membership won’t be included in this quarter’s financial statements.

Apple /quotes/zigman/68270/delayed /quotes/zigman/68270/lastsale AAPL is expected to report its second straight quarterly decline in iPhone sales when it reports third-quarter earnings after the market closes on Tuesday. While analysts are optimistic about a potential resurgence in iPhone sales starting with the iPhone 7 cycle later this year, this quarterly earnings report will likely show continued declines in hardware, weighed down by the iPhone, Apple Watch and iPad. A bright spot for the company continues to be its advances in software and services, which surpassed Mac revenue for the first time last quarter.

ECB President Mario Draghi was in the spotlight as investors looked for clues to how ECB will handle aftermath of the U.K.’s Brexit vote. Here’s a recap of our live blog.

- 'Extended period'
- William Watts
The ECB didn’t really say anything new in its news release announcing it had left rates unchanged. The release, however, was unusual in that it emphasized that the ECB intends to keep rates at current or lower levels for an “extended period” and that its program of monthly bond buys would run until at least March 2017 and possibly beyond.
That’s been said before, but Draghi usually saves it for the news conference. So if nothing else, it appears the ECB really wants to drive home the easy policy message, though Twitter saw other motives:
*ECB SAYS ASSET PURCHASES TO RUN UNTIL AT LEAST MARCH 2017
Unusual getting released now? Suggests Draghi keen for quick Q&A + hit beach.

NFLX
reported second-quarter earnings Monday after the market closed, and the video-on-demand company saw its stock plummet more than 15% after subscriber growth came up well short of internal and analyst projections. Analysts tracked by FactSet expected Netflix to add 532,000 new subscribers in the U.S. and 2.10 million internationally, which would total about 2.46 million net adds after factoring in a decline in DVD subscriptions. Netflix expected 2.5 million, but instead added 160,000 in the U.S. and 1.52 million overseas, a total of less than 1.7 million. -
