Investing.com -- U.S. stock futures fell Wednesday, with disappointing results from a couple of tech giants hitting sentiment in the early days of the new earnings season.

Here are some of the biggest U.S. stock movers today:

  • Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock slumped 12% after the electric vehicle manufacturer after its second-quarter earnings missed estimates amid falling vehicle sales, and profit margins fell to a five-year low.

  • Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) stock fell 3.7% after the tech giant’s expenses rose substantially year-on-year amid continued expenditure on AI development - a trend that is expected to eat into profit margins in the coming quarters.

  • Trump Media & Technology (DJT) stock fell 5% after a new poll saw likely Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris leading Republican nominee Donald Trump in the race for the White House.

  • Visa (NYSE:V) stock fell 4% after the credit card giant’s third-quarter revenue growth fell short of expectations as steep borrowing costs limited consumer spending.

  • Texas Instruments (NASDAQ:TXN) stock rose 1% after the chipmaker reported a solid earnings beat for the second quarter, with adjusted earnings per share surpassing the estimates.
  • AT&T (NYSE:T) stock rose 4% after the telecoms giant exceeded market expectations for wireless subscriber additions in the second quarter, as its higher-tier unlimited plans attracted customers.

  • Enphase Energy (NASDAQ:ENPH) stock rose 12% after the solar inverter maker beat expectations for second-quarter operating profit, driven by a recovery in demand in the United States.

  • Boston Scientific (NYSE:BSX) stock fell 3% despite the medical devices manufacturer beating second-quarter profit expectations on a hefty rise in sales of its products to treat cardiovascular problems.

  • Deutsche Bank (DB) stock fell 8% after the German lender posted its first loss in four years in the second quarter after setting aside well over $1 billion as a provision for an investor lawsuit, scuppering plans for a stock buyback.

  • Lamb Weston (LW) plunged 27% after it issued guidance for the year that was well below consensus estimates. Analysts called its results 'disastous'.

  • Roper Technologies (NASDAQ:ROP) fell 7% after it gave a lackluster forecast for the third quarter.
