NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Hundreds of companies have already reported this earnings season, providing a glimpse into the state of different parts of the economy.
One disappointment came from 3M (MMM, Fortune 500), which reported significantly below the consensus estimates because of lower margins. The consumer technology conglomerate also gave lower guidance for next quarter, citing deteriorating economic conditions in all of its business segments. Its stock dropped 5% on the news.
While consumer confidence is near record lows, high-end brands continue to report strong growth numbers. The latest example is Coach (COH), which announced same-store sales increased 9% during the third quarter, significantly above expectations. Luxury brands have the pricing power to fight input costs and their sales are relatively immune to the economic cycle.
In other earnings news, Netflix (NFLX) lost one-third of its market capitalization overnight, and it is already trading 75% below its all-time high, reached this July. The streaming video provider disappointed with a grim outlook for next quarter earnings, once again confirming investors' fears that Netflix's management is swimming in deep and dangerous waters.
