2. Meta Platforms is listed to report after the close: Results after the close bear on the next open; timing is a calendar listing.

• The session is not over: a midday reading can change by the close, and nothing here is a forecast of it.
• Moves with no verified catalyst are reported, not explained.
• Blockhaven's Macro read is computed once a day and is not recomputed intraday, so it is not used here.
