$JMP killer earnings $0.45 per shareJMP Group (NYSE:JMP) stock is soaring higher on Friday after releasing its earnings report for the fourth quarter of 2020 after-hours yesterday.
The most recent earnings report has JMP Group bringing in earnings $0.45 per share of on revenue of $53.62 million. Both of these are strong increases over the company’s EPS and revenue of 1 cent and $23.82 million from the same time last year.
Those positive results for the quarter are easily enough to explain why JPM stock is on the rise today. However, there’s more investors should note. It looks like the company is the target of investors looking to pump and dump it on the news. Talk on social media seems to back this idea up.
As a trader you have to understand the power of a catalyst. $JMP had killer earnings.

3 ways to play this earnings | Beyond Meat Technical Analysis3 in-depth scenarios taking you through how I plan on playing earnings with NASDAQ:BYND
Scenario 1: Mini Falling Wedge (Bullish)
If this is indeed a falling wedge, we should see it smack both support and resistance 3 times prior to its decision.
If this is the case, I'll be looking to grab a position later this week for a short-term trade.
Scenario 2: Massive Bullish Channel
This is why we need to be very patient with this trade. TA would tell you we should see another retest with even lower lows before breakout long-term. If we hold under I'll back up the truck and prepare to load up the puts.
Scenario 3: Beautiful Earnings Rip
In the case of a massive breakout, I will aim to grab a few calls with some time (expiring 2 weeks after earnings) with a strike around $120. If we get a solid correction I'd hope we can grab something like $115 strikes for the price of the $120 strikes at open.
Once again, if breakout is successful we will see price movement toward $120 before earnings most definitely. If we grab 3 or 4 $115 calls expiring may 22, we will probably be able to sell 2 for our original investment plus profit. This would allow us to hold the remaining contracts through earnings.
"Risk it for the biscuit" but secure your profits at the same time :)
Depending on the next 48 hours, I will choose one of these scenarios. We will ball out, this is Easy Loot.
DO NOT TRADE THIS! YOU WILL LOSE MONEY...
DOTCOMJACK
QCOM Breaks to New HighQCOM is running up ahead of earnings with a rebound off of a sell down during last earnings season. The recovery is a fast short-term V bottom.
ORBEX: Look at SPX Volumes for Further Clues!Despite the US-China phase one trade deal supporting equities the upside could be minimized if priced in already since as indices have been moving up since the December truce!
Geopolitics suggest more strength, however, technicals indicate otherwise! Will corporate earnings trigger a shift from a macro perspective? Well, either that or weaker US inflation data!
It seems that equities hang on earnings and inflation, whereas the US index only on inflation data.

AAPL Earnings Report Gap FailsAlthough Apple news claimed that the company “beat expectations,” the stock gapped up and quickly reversed, then moved down further. This is due to their Guidance for the next quarter. Many companies are able to beat the analysts’ estimates, but forecast lower for next earnings season.
$AAPL into EARNINGS #AAPLFirst of all $AAPL is at a mayor trendline so a miss could make us fall heavy.
If Apple has a miss in earnings, we could see a downtrend starting aiming at the 50ma weekly at $192 and 100ma weekly at $182. On the daily timeframe theirs also a lot of support around the $180-$190 zone.
If Apple has a beat in earnings. We could see $230, $260 and $270 as first take profits.
Will update this post what my feelings are going to be on the earnings from. $AAPL.
INTC Has Massive Gap to Run DownINTC not only had a poor earnings season, but it also faces challenges from recent new tariffs in China. Intel’s stock price has fallen back to the lows of December 2018. This should provide support for the stock due to fundamentals.
SYMC Compression Below ResistanceSymantec Corp. was sideways for most of this year. Recently, it gapped up during earnings season. A weak retracement may be a setup for a breakout attempt against long-term resistance. Red line shows that resistance level on this chart.
