I have over a decade of experience writing about the stock market and have covered corporate earnings reports and stock reactions over that time frame. I find corporate earnings to be so important because they allow investors a closer look into the strength of a company's fundamentals and how these may impact its share price down the road.
I am the former managing editor and chief investment strategist of Utility Forecaster, which was named one of "10 investment newsletters to read besides Buffett's" in 2015.

Earnings calendar preview: Progress Software
Will Progress Software (PRGS) emerge from under the radar and survive the SaaSmageddon? Management will provide some answers when it reports fiscal third-quarter results after the closing bell on Wednesday.
The small-cap stock had posted a year-to-date total return of -41.6% through April 1, as markets priced the threat of artificial intelligence (AI) to companies that write code.
Progress rallied, though, posting strong second-quarter results, demonstrating that AI is a tool for growth as opposed to a threat to its business and completing the acquisition of AI and data platform Domo.
As of August 31, its year-to-date total return was indeed a positive 7.7%. Then PRGS went south again, and now it's showing a -4.5% total return through September 23.
Wall Street remains totally bullish: All five analysts who cover the stock rate it a Buy. The average 12-month target price is $57.20. And that's more than 40% upside from here.

Those analysts expect Progress to report earnings of $1.52 per share, up from $1.50 a year ago, despite a 0.9% revenue decline to $247.59 million.
They'll also look forward to management's commentary on the $400 million Domo deal and what its integration means for future top- and bottom-line growth.
Domo should add a meaningful layer to its core offerings in application development and developer tools, IT infrastructure and DevOps management, as well as connectivity.

Earnings calendar preview: Nike
With its place in the index in question amid a steep decline in its share price, and fresh off another blow to its stature, Nike (NKE) is the only Dow Jones stock on the earnings calendar this week.
On September 4, S&P Dow Jones Indices (PDF) announced that NKE would be removed from the S&P 100, effective September 21. In between, on September 18, international football star Kylian Mbappe left the iconic athleisure brand for competitor On (ONON).
That's a tough lead-up to management's report on fiscal 2027 first-quarter results after the closing bell on Thursday. Wall Street expects a 10.2% year-over-year slide for EPS to 44 cents, on a 3.3% decline for revenue.
The consumer discretionary stock was down almost 42% year to date and more than 77% from its November 5, 2021, all-time high through September 24. Its market cap has fallen from a peak of about $281 billion to $53.5 billion.
Thus its removal from the S&P 100 as part of quarterly rebalancing so the index "is more representative of its market capitalization range."
NKE is now both the smallest weight of the 30-stock Dow and the worst-performing component this year. And history suggests "it probably is a candidate for removal," TimesSquare Capital Management Portfolio Manager Josh Bischoff told Reuters.
"I would describe the odds as much higher over the next year," Futurum Equities Chief Market Strategist Shay Boloor said. "But it's tricky because the Dow doesn't have a mechanical deletion rule where Nike automatically falls out after crossing some threshold."
There are no other noteworthy earnings reports scheduled for release after the close on Thursday, October 1.
