Earnings season starts this evening with Alcoa's (AA) quarterly report after the close. Â Arm yourself this earnings season with our comprehensive Interactive Earnings Report Database. Â We take earnings analysis to the next level by not only highlighting how the actual reports compare to analyst estimates, but also how the stock price reacted to the report. Â Users of this database can easily find how a stock or basket of stocks typically reacts to earnings in order to prepare themselves throughout earnings season. Â Traders can also see how stocks react after gapping up or down on earnings to develop trade ideas. Â If IBM opens down $2 on earnings, what does the stock typically do next? Â This database can answer that question and much more for the majority of US stocks that will report this season.
Below is a snapshot of how Alcoa looks when its historical earnings reports are pulled up in the database. Â As shown, Alcoa has only beaten earnings estimates 41% of the time going back to 2002. Â The stock has also averaged a decline of 1.39% on all of its report days over this time period. Â Clearly, Alcoa struggles on earnings, so it should be no surprise if it struggles again after its release this evening. Â The surprise will be if it actually goes up on the news.
