More earnings reports mean more ratings changes in our system.

There are big reports this week from energy companies, software companies, car companies – all with different takes on tariffs and the economy.

The one constant is that reported EPS are misleading. The real purpose of earnings calls is to help companies and Wall Street sell more stock. And, once you get your mind around that fact, a whole new world of research is available to you.

How do we know reported EPS are misleading? Because we’ve proven it with Harvard Business School, MIT Sloan and Bloomberg. Not to mention, the outperformance of stock picks based on our research proves the alpha in our research.

We recently went live to share some alpha via our insights into the biggest companies reporting earnings so far this week: Exxon (XOM), Chevron (CVX), Cigna (CI), Monster Beverage (MNST), Fluor (FLR), Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Arista Networks (ANET), Duke Energy (DUK), and more.
