How to read it. “Expected move” is the options-implied move for the upcoming report. “Avg move” is the stock’s typical earnings-day move historically. “Last report” is the most recent earnings move. “Before open” / “after close” is when the company reports.

Full data on the platform Expected moves shift as each report approaches. This page is refreshed weekly with a subset. For live implied moves, the complete earnings calendar, IV rush/crush, beat rates and every stock’s full move history, join EarningsWatcher or launch the app.

What the expected move tells you

A larger expected move means options are pricing in a bigger swing — and charging more premium for it. Whether that premium has historically been rich or cheap depends on how often the stock actually beats its implied move; our data study on which stocks beat the implied move shows how widely that varies. Going into any report, implied volatility builds (the IV rush) and then collapses afterward (the IV crush). This page is information to research from, not a recommendation.

Frequently asked questions

What are the most anticipated earnings this week and next week?

The most anticipated reports are the largest companies by market cap reporting in the window — the names that move sector ETFs and set the tone for everything that follows. They are listed in rank order at the top of this page, each with its report day, session and the options-implied expected move; the next-week page carries the same ranking for the following Monday-to-Friday window.

Who reports earnings next week?

The next-week calendar lists every liquid company scheduled to report in the following Monday-to-Friday window, with the options-implied expected move for each. Dates are added as companies confirm them, so the list fills in through the week; the current week's calendar is the complete public preview.

What is an expected (implied) move on earnings?

The expected move is how big a price swing the options market is pricing in for an upcoming earnings report. It is read from option prices — roughly the cost of the at-the-money straddle for the expiry covering the report — and represents the market's one-standard-deviation estimate of the post-earnings move. It is a magnitude, not a direction.

How do I read this week's earnings table?

“Expected move” is the options-implied move for the upcoming report. “Avg move” is the stock's typical earnings-day move historically. “Last report” is the most recent earnings move (signed). “Before open” means the company reports before the market opens; “after close” means after it closes.

Does a bigger expected move mean a stock is a better trade?

No. A larger expected move simply means options are pricing in a larger swing — and charging more premium for it. Whether that premium is rich or cheap depends on how the stock has actually moved versus its implied move in the past. This page is information, not advice.

What are the biggest names reporting this week?

For the week of November 16–20, 2026, the preview highlights NVIDIA (Tuesday after the close), Walt Disney (Tuesday before the open), Walmart (Thursday before the open) and Home Depot (Tuesday before the open). See the chart and day filters above for the full curated list, and the platform for every reporting stock.
