ADAM SHAPIRO: Etsy earnings out. And they are falling big time in the after market. What's going on here? Let's bring in Ines Ferre. She's looking at those earnings for us.

But it's also a slowdown year over year. Last year, the same quarter, $0.75 per share. Etsy is seeing its third quarter revenue coming in at anywhere between $500 million and $525 million. That's shy of what the Street is expecting. And it also is not issuing guidance for the full year for 2021.
