After a big week for the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO), there are a few ASX 200 shares that I've got in my sights.
The benchmark Aussie index edged 0.6% lower to 6,073.80 points as investors reacted to the latest run of earnings results.
Find out why I've got my eye on Polynovo Ltd (ASX: PNV) and 2 more ASX 200 shares in the week ahead.
Polynovo and 2 more ASX 200 shares to watch
It was a volatile week for the Polynovo share price after the Aussie biotech announced its FY20 results.
Polynovo saw sales growth of 104% to $19.1 million but reported a net loss after tax of $4.2 million. That wasn't enough to impress investors as the ASX 200 biotech share price fell 14.5% lower in the space of 2 days.
However, a strong resurgence saw the Polynovo share price rocket 12.9% on Friday, thanks to robust insider buying.
Speaking of resurgences, I think the Afterpay Ltd (ASX: APT) share price could be on the move on Monday.
The buy now, pay later (BNPL) group released its FY20 results on Thursday. That was headlined by a 112% increase in underlying sales to $11.1 billion driven by strong growth across Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States.
However, the ASX 200 fintech still managed to report a statutory loss despite strong sales. That didn't impress investors with the Afterpay share price falling 5.6% lower to $88.75 per share.
Finally, I've got my eye on the Woolworths Group Ltd (ASX: WOW) share price this week.
Shares in the ASX 200 conglomerate jumped higher on Thursday after the company's full-year results.
The Woolworths share price is up 9.6% this year but it has been a volatile ride for investors. I think Woolworths is worth watching in the week ahead as investors try and re-value the ASX 200 share.
Foolish takeaway
It's been a wild ride in August with many Aussie companies reporting their half-year or full-year earnings.
These are just a few of the ASX 200 shares that I've got my eye on in the week ahead with some exciting results including IOOF Holdings Limited (ASX: IFL).
