Take a look at some of the biggest movers in the premarket:
JPMorgan Chase (JPM) – The bank reported fourth-quarter earnings and revenue that topped Wall Street forecasts. Strong trading and investment banking results were among the factors helping the company’s bottom line.
PNC Financial (PNC) – PNC reported better-than-expected revenue and earnings for the fourth quarter, saying operational results were solid and it recaptured some credit reserves thanks to an improving economy. Shares of PNC fell 1.4% in premarket trading as of 7:40 a.m. ET.
Walt Disney (DIS) – Disney ended its annual pass program for Disneyland, citing uncertainty about when the park would reopen and the limitations that may be imposed on it when it does. The park has been closed for 10 months, and Disney plans to issue pro-rated refunds to current annual pass holders.
Whirlpool (WHR) – Whirlpool and other appliance makers are on watch, after President Donald Trump extended tariffs on large residential washing machines for another two years. They were imposed in 2018 and were set to expire on Feb. 8.

Amazon.com (AMZN) – Amazon is the target of a class-action lawsuit, accusing the company of colluding with publishers to inflate the price of electronic books. About 90% of all e-books are sold through Amazon.
SAP (SAP) – SAP is forecasting flat revenue and a decline in profit for 2021, although the German business software company’s fourth-quarter results did beat analyst forecasts.
