Thanksgiving is upon us, and that means a shortened trading week. Although markets will be open on Black Friday, it is usually a very light trading day as most investors and traders will take the day off because they are stuffed with turkey. Also, Wednesday is usually a light day, as many are traveling or taking off early for Thanksgiving.
24/7 Wall St. has put together a preview of the earnings reports that are coming out this week. Even though it is a light trading week — implying earnings reports will be light as well — there will still be at least a few major companies reporting.
Here, we have included the consensus earnings estimates from Thomson Reuters, as well as the stock price and trading history.
