Investing.com - Stocks in focus in premarket trading on Friday:

• Pinterest (NYSE:PINS) stock slumped 16.6% after its first earnings report since going public. The company reported a net loss of $41.4 million in the three months to March on revenue of $201.9 million, up from $131 million a year ago. Analysts had forecast more progress in narrowing losses.

• Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) stock slipped 0.9% by 8:15 AM ET (12:15 GMT) amid fears that the trade dispute with China will hit growth.

•NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock was down 1% after reporting a second-straight quarterly decline in revenue. Earnings and sales both beat modest expectations, but failed to overcome the broader market nervousness

• Applied Materials (NASDAQ:AMAT) stock rose 4.4% as its earnings results came in better than expected and it forecast strong sales for the current quarter.

• Deere & Company (NYSE:DE) stock fell 4.5% after it reported disappointing results, as ongoing trade tensions increased caution among farmers, who were also hit by a rain-delayed planting season.

• Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock lost 2.2% after the National Transportation Safety Board found its autopilot program was on in a 2018 crash involving a Model 3 in Delray Beach, Florida.

• Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE:HPE) stock was up 0.3% on news that it is buying supercomputer maker Cray (NASDAQ:CRAY) for $35 per share or $1.3 billion in cash. Cray soared 16.6% on the news.
