This article looks at some of the big movers off the back of recent earnings announcements, as we try to find stocks that provide potential trading opportunities. Typically, earnings announcements and trading statements will drive a shift or enhancement of market sentiment.

While many see earnings as a significant risk when holding a stock, placing trades in the wake of such events allows for greater confidence that all market knowledge has been factored into current prices.

Dollar General

Dollar General shares have slipped over the course of the week, despite an earnings report that brought stronger-than-expected third quarter (Q3) earnings, and an upward revision to the full-year sales outlook.

Nonetheless, with wider market weakness, we are seeing traders question demand in the event that Omicron drives business closures. The weekly chart highlights how price has dropped back into the lower boundary of a standard deviation channel.

A break below trendline and $203.88 support signals the potential for a bearish reversal phase. Until then, the bullish trend points towards a possible upward turn from here.

easyJet

Airlines have seen a volatile week, with earnings coming just as traders are worrying about the potential implications of the Omicron variant.

While profits fell short of expectations, the airline did manage to beat predictions for revenues. The stock managed to regain some ground following the collapse late Friday.

However, the bearish trend down remains in play unless we see price rise through the £5.71 and £6.63 levels. To the downside, a break through the October 2020 low of £4.58 would point towards a bearish continuation.

    • I've been exploring the world of play-to-earn gaming recently, looking for something that's not just about endless grinding but actually offers a fun and rewarding experience. OGC really stood out to me because it combines gaming with a sense of community in a unique way. OGC isn't just a game; it's a platform where you can play, earn, and even help shape its future. You're not just a player; you're part of a community with a voice. The idea of earning crypto while playing games is exciting, but what makes OGC special is its focus on community involvement. Your feedback can directly influence the development of the game, which is a big deal. I've also heard that the OGC token is available for pre-market trading on Bitget. While I'm still getting to know the platform and its features, it's definitely something to keep an eye on. Has anyone else tried OGC? What has your experience been like? I'd love to hear your thoughts and any tips you might have.
