Last week, seven of the Dow Jones industrial average index components reported their latest quarterly reports, and overall the results have been decent. There were exceptional performances from Microsoft and IBM.
This week, 11 of the 30 Dow components are expected to share their results this week. The index has been subject to increased volatility since January, and some investors may have looked to the current earnings season to stabilize it.
24/7 Wall St. has put together a preview of those Dow companies scheduled to report their quarterly results this week. Here, we have included the consensus earnings estimates from Thomson Reuters, as well as the stock price and trading history.
Be advised that the earnings and revenue estimates may change ahead of the formal reports, and some companies may change reporting dates as well.
