Earnings date The day a company publishes its results. Prices often move sharply on it, so it matters when you're choosing an option expiry or deciding whether to buy before or after. Until a company confirms the day, providers estimate it from the last quarter and it can shift. Learn more →

What to watch
Iberdrola presents an interesting contrast as it combines a recent acceleration in dividend growth compared to its longer-term average with a warning on liquidity, while also reporting earnings during the same week. Apple, by comparison, maintains a strong safe classification with recent growth that has slightly trailed its longer-term trend.
