It is another busy week for earnings as hundreds of companies are expected to report, including many S&P 500 companies. Two Magnificent 7 stocks are also going to report earnings this week: Amazon and Alphabet. But in addition to those two companies, there are others to watch.
Technology, beauty, an apparel retailer, social media and finance. These are five must-see earnings charts to watch this week.
They all have great earnings surprise records. One company has not missed in 5 years. Another has only missed once. And a third has only missed twice in those 5 years.
Each of these companies is expected to grow earnings in the double and triple digits in 2026. Will they confirm the analysts’ expectations?
