#EarningsSeason Earnings season is the period of approximately three weeks following the end of each fiscal quarter, during which publicly traded companies officially release their financial performance reports.

These reports are vital for investors and analysts because they reveal whether company valuations and financial market highs are justified.

📊 When does earnings season take place?

Earnings season occurs four times a year (once per quarter). It usually begins a couple of weeks after the end of March, June, September, and December:

📅 January – February: Q4 reports (fourth quarter of the previous year).

📅 April – May: Q1 reports (first quarter).

📅 July – August: Q2 reports (second quarter).

📅 October – November:

Q3 reports (third quarter) — the current period.

Typically, major U.S. banks (such as JPMorgan Chase or Citigroup) unofficially kick off each earnings season.
