The stock of Coca-Cola increased 2.9% after the company reported earnings and revenue that beat expectations. In contrast, Spotify saw a 10% increase when the dominant audio streaming service revealed third-quarter results that exceeded forecasts.

Following the company’s withdrawal of its full-year forecast due to growing expenses brought on by the United Auto Workers union strikes, General Motors shares decreased by 2.3%. In fact, the automaker’s third-quarter earnings were stronger than anticipated.
