DocuSign (DOCU 1.42%) is due to release quarterly earnings after the closing bell. It’ll be the first full quarter where the hyped Intelligence Agreement Management (IAM) AI-powered cloud software was available to all clients. The Rule Breakers company has been treading water over the last 5 years, up just 6%.

• Targeting a sticky client base: Stock Advisor recommendation Ulta Beauty (ULTA -3.07%) will also report Q3 earnings, with a focus on progress on enhancing digital capabilities and on take-up of the loyalty program.

• Split of regional growth in focus: Investors will be watching to see if U.S. sales growth picks up, after Q2 results showed a 29% growth in international sales but flat U.S. numbers.

• A portfolio diversifier: Some Foolish investors might like Lululemon as a way to gain more exposure to international apparel and retail growth. However, growing market share in emerging markets is not an easy feat, so the stock might not be for those uncomfortable with the size of that task.

• Large investments: xAI, Elon Musk’s AI start-up, announced it’ll be expanding its supercomputer power tenfold, speeding up the training of chatbot Grok. It already operates on a cluster of over 100,000 connected Nvidia (NVDA -0.02%) chips. Such a move could leap-frog the start-up’s capabilities beyond rivals including OpenAI, Alphabet (GOOG -0.67%), and Anthropic.
