Ambev SA (ABEV) saw its stock soar 5.05% in pre-market trading on Thursday, as investors eagerly awaited the company's third-quarter earnings report. The Brazilian beverage giant, which is a subsidiary of Anheuser-Busch InBev, is scheduled to release its financial results before the market opens.

Analysts are expecting Ambev to report earnings of $0.04 per share for the quarter, according to the earnings calendar. The market's positive reaction suggests that investors may be anticipating strong results or optimistic guidance from the company. Ambev's performance is often seen as a bellwether for consumer spending trends in Latin America, particularly in Brazil, its largest market.

The pre-market surge comes amid a challenging economic environment in Brazil and other Latin American countries. If Ambev's results meet or exceed expectations, it could signal resilience in the consumer staples sector and potentially broader economic stability in the region. Investors will be closely watching key metrics such as sales volume, revenue growth, and market share to gauge the company's performance in the competitive beverage industry.
