It’s not that easy to beat on the Zacks Consensus Estimate quarter after quarter for years.
Yet, these three companies have been doing it, in some cases, for five years.
Only a couple dozen companies are able to do it consistently. That doesn’t necessarily means it will continue to beat, but I like beating on the good track record.
Here are three doing it to end this week:
1. General Electric (NYSE:GE) fell into the abyss during the Great Recession but has turned it around with consistent earnings beats.
2. Citizens Financial Group (CFG) is the 13th largest retail bank. The banks have been reporting solid earnings this quarter.
3. ManpowerGroup (MAN) is a global staffing company with lots of business in Europe. But most don’t know that it has beaten for 5 straight years.
All three of these companies should be on your short list if you’re trading the earnings report.
