The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 are both steadily sinking lower this week ahead of the vote on health care. While the Dow had closed higher for weeks, it seems that this recent pullback has been a solidifying factor for the markets, but if they continue to slide it could be correction territory.
It’s worth noting that a vast majority of companies already have reported their earnings for the most recent quarter, but a few stragglers are still left before the next season kicks into gear. 24/7 Wall St. has put together a preview of some of those companies reporting their latest results on Thursday.
We have included the consensus earnings estimates from Thomson Reuters and the stock price and trading history, as well as added some additional color on each.
When GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME) reports its most recent quarterly results, the consensus estimates predict $2.29 in earnings per share (EPS) and $3.1 billion in revenue. Shares were last seen at $23.83, in a 52-week trading range of $20.10 to $33.72. The consensus analyst price target is $25.84.
