Stocks to watch

The first earnings season of 2025 will ‘officially’ open in April with earnings announcements expected from several leading banks.

In this Q1 2025 earnings season all eyes will be on tech/growth stocks. They simply must deliver on projected earnings, or at the very least meet market expectations to avoid the US stock market sliding further away from all-time highs. Exceeding expectations would certainly be a positive surprise.

How to trade earnings season

Earnings season presents unique trading opportunities for investors.
Here are some popular strategies to consider:

Pre-earnings momentum trading

You could take advantage of the increased volatility and trading volume leading up to earnings announcements.

Identify stocks that are expected to report positive results and evaluate the opportunity to enter positions before the news is released to capture potential price movements.

CFD trading

You may want to explore trading Contracts for Difference (CFDs) to capitalise on the volatility surrounding earnings season.

CFDs allow you to take advantage of both upward and downward price movements with leverage. Leverage has the potential to increase profits, but also to amplify losses. Careful risk management is essential.

Post-earnings breakout trading

Following earnings announcements, you could look for stocks that experience significant price movements.

This strategy involves entering positions after earnings are released and riding the momentum of the price breakout.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Deciding to buy stock before or after earnings depends on your risk tolerance and strategy. Buying before earnings is risky as prices can fluctuate based on the report. If you’re optimistic about the company's performance, buying early might pay off. However, there's a risk of unexpected bad news causing losses. Waiting until after earnings allows for a more informed decision, with knowledge of the results and market reaction. This approach is safer, although you might miss the initial surge if the news is positive. The decision to buy a stock before or after earnings should be considered based on your financial goals and risk appetite.
