5 Interesting Earnings Charts This Week
Earnings season isn’t over yet. There are hundreds of companies expected to report this week including big technology companies, popular growth stocks and a lot of consumer-focused companies that soared during the pandemic but which are now trying to adapt to the post-pandemic world.
The 2023 holiday season was another strong holiday but was it for every consumer-focused company? We’re starting to get earnings reports from some of them including two of them here.
We will also hopefully get a first look at 2024 guidance and color on if inflation is coming down.
Earnings All-Stars
Several of these companies have excellent earnings surprise track records. It’s not easy to beat every quarter, or nearly every quarter, for 5 years with a pandemic going on. But two of these companies have only missed once in that time. That’s incredible.
Will these companies beat again?
