As competitors face growth struggles and government scrutiny, Microsoft looks like a calm oasis in the tech storm.

Company A: $110 billion in annual revenue, expected to grow to $125 billion in the next year; $30 billion in annual profit, expected to grow to $35 billion.

Seems pretty similar, right? One company is growing sales faster, the other is growing profit faster, but the valuations don’t seem like they should be too disparate. It was just a year ago that the debate about trillion-dollar market caps focused on Apple Inc. AAPL, -0.56% and Amazon.com Inc. AMZN, -0.89% , with good reason: Apple was the first to top the mark, and Amazon has flirted with it multiple times and was only $20 billion away as of Wednesday’s close.

Also reporting Thursday • UnitedHealth Group Inc.‘s UNH, +0.75% report Thursday morning will be an important early bellwether for the health sector, which has faced some tough questions this year.• Two rookies will make their earnings debuts after booming initial public offerings. Online pet-food store Chewy Inc. CHWY, -3.51% and cybersecurity company CrowdStrike Holdings Inc. CRWD, +2.10% will make their earnings debuts Thursday afternoon after strong gains in early public trading.
