worth a closer look

Biggest moves
HAWK +23.8%, CVNA +15.7%, CMG +8.9%.
How it is measured
Earnings per share against the estimate analysts held before the report (within 2% counts as in line and is left off). The move is close to close over the trading day after the report, the same day for a report before the open, beside the S&P 500 over the same days.
The bottom line
A list of questions worth looking into, not a list of picks. Each company’s Earnings section lines up what its filing said against what was expected.
