Earnings season moved into higher gear on Thursday as investors weighed reports from a range of major companies, along with new housing market and employment data. Netflix and Tesla both fell following mixed reports and guidance, while Johnson & Johnson rose after reporting strong 2Q results and raising its full-year outlook.
