The past few weeks have been an absolute roller-coaster of volatility, with Thursday taking the title of the worst day for the U.S. markets since 1987. For that day alone, the Dow Jones industrials, S&P 500 and Nasdaq each saw losses of roughly 10%. Swings like this have been the result of supply chain concerns across the globe and a general slowdown in business, all due to the coronavirus outbreak. The fundamental threat of the COVID-19 is very real for American businesses, and it is vastly overtaking other market fundamentals, sending everything lower.
Although earnings and other fundamentals are taking a backseat in the markets right now, they will be an important measure when the markets exit this scare. We are in the earnings doldrums right now, but a few more major companies will be sharing their results soon. Here, 24/7 Wall St. has put together a preview of a few of the most anticipated quarterly reports due this week.
We have included the consensus earnings estimates, 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.
