Continued subscription growth and a revived advertising market should show Spotify's resilience when its third-quarter earnings are released Thursday morning.

to be pandemic-resistant if not pandemic-proof. SiriusXM raised its guidance for self-pay subscribers from 700,000 to 800,000 its third quarter earnings on Oct. 22 -- “90% of what we originally projected,” said incoming CEO; when it announced second quarter earnings on July 29, SiriusXM told investors it would gain only 500,000 new subscribers.
