How to watch Samsung's foldable-filled Unpacked event

The Verge08-07-2025
Samsung is preparing to parade the latest Galaxy-branded foldables, wearables, and perhaps some other surprises at its summer Unpacked event tomorrow, July 9th. The show is expected to cap off months of leaks around the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 phones, as well as the lightly redesigned Galaxy Watch 8 series smartwatches.
Samsung will hold its latest Galaxy Unpacked event in New York City on Wednesday, July 9th, 2025, starting at 10AM ET / 7AM PT / 4PM CET. We'll have hands-on coverage and analysis right here.
As usual, a livestream will be available directly on Samsung's website and YouTube channel. You can also check out the livestream that we've embedded at the top of this article for convenience.
Samsung is expected to launch the latest generation of its Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip phones, which, according to various leaks, have been slimmed down considerably compared to their predecessors. That should help the Galaxy Z Fold 7 to better compete against some of the skinniest book-style foldables on the market, such as Oppo's Find N5 and Honor's Magic V5. The event may also show off a more affordable Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE variant and allow us to confirm some of the rumored specification upgrades that have been circulating around the devices.
We should also see the launch of Samsung's Galaxy Watch 8, Watch 8 Classic, and Watch Ultra (2025) smartwatches, which are now all believed to share a similar round face on a squircle body design, introduced with the previous Watch Ultra.

Trump's Tariffs Won't Solve U.S. Chip-Making Dilemma

President Trump's chip-tariff regime could disrupt the global electronics trade and send prices of all kinds of goods higher. One thing it appears unlikely to do: bring advanced chip-making roaring back in the U.S. Trump last week threatened a 100% tariff on 'chips and semiconductors,' but offered an exemption. Companies that commit to 'build in the U.S.' won't have to pay the duty, according to Trump.

Second Quarter Earnings Season: Waiting For NVIDIA

Following the second busiest week, the second-quarter earnings season begins to slow down this week, with just 6 S&P 500 companies scheduled to report. Notable companies scheduled to release earnings include: Deere (DE) and Applied Materials (AMAT). Earnings Season At A Glance According to FactSet, 81% of S&P 500 companies have reported earnings above consensus estimates, with 90% of companies having already reported results. Earnings Estimates Summary Companies reporting and combining actual results with consensus estimates for companies yet to report, the S&P 500's blended earnings growth rate for the quarter is at 11.8% year-over-year, well above the 4.9% expectations at the end of the quarter. Notably, the expected earnings growth rate for calendar year 2025 is 10.3%, and for 2026, the expectation is 13.3%. Market Performance Following the better earnings results, the S&P 500 came within a hair of an all-time high last week, while the Magnificent 7 reached a new peak. The Magnificent 7, comprising Microsoft (MSFT), Meta Platforms (META), (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), NVIDIA (NVDA), Alphabet (GOOGL), and Tesla (TSLA), outperformed primarily due to Apple and Tesla. Magnificent 7 Because these companies are critical drivers of earnings growth and a significant percentage of the S&P 500's market capitalization, the Magnificent 7 were the group to watch this earnings season, and they did not disappoint aside from Tesla (TSLA). Furthermore, the artificial intelligence (AI) related companies reinforced the positive narrative surrounding the technology. With earnings season nearing completion, all eyes now shift to NVIDIA (NVDA), which is scheduled to report on August 27. Earnings Insights By Sector Positive earnings surprises from the healthcare and communication services sectors were the most significant contributors to the improved earnings picture last week. Better-than-expected earnings from Pfizer (PFE), Eli Lilly (LLY), Amgen (AMGN), and Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) were the most essential contributors, according to FactSet. Revenue Results By Sector Following better-than-expected data last week, sales growth of 6.3% is ahead of the 4.2% year-over-year expectation at the end of the quarter. Better sales results in the financials and healthcare sectors were the most significant drivers of the improvement in expected revenue growth last week, according to FactSet. What To Watch Next Week Earnings season slows to a crawl beginning this week. While the individual reports are crucial for that stock, none are going to change the overall color of the season at this point. Friday's retail sales numbers will be an essential check on the US consumer. The soft monthly jobs report with massive downward revisions to start the month was worrisome for the health of the economy. Since the consumer drives the US economy, retail sales will be closely watched to see if the labor market is spilling over to spending. Consumer inflation (CPI) on Tuesday will be notable as the odds of a September short-term interest rate cut from the Federal Reserve (Fed) have risen to 90% following the weaker-than-expected jobs report. Year-over-year CPI is expected to increase to 2.8% from 2.7%, but the data will be watched for signs that the Fed needs to delay any cuts to fight inflation. There is still one more monthly jobs report before the Fed's September meeting, and barring an abnormally large inflation surge, the labor market will be the primary driver behind any rate cuts or lack thereof. In addition, markets have now fully priced in at least two rate cuts of 25 basis points (0.25%) in 2025. Newsflow about the administration's trade negotiations and new tariff announcements will remain a market mover. Berkshire Hathaway (BRK/A, BRK/B) releases its 13F filing after the close on Thursday. Warren Buffett continues to be a net seller of stocks, but this report provides the details. An analysis of Berkshire's quarterly earnings is here. The increase in worries about the economy in the wake of a shockingly poor jobs report eased this week, with the betting odds of recession falling to the lows of the year. The falling odds of recession and another week of better-than-expected earnings sent stocks to near record highs.
