True... but earnings reports do NOT tell you a thing about where a company is GOING. They simply tell you where it has BEEN. It is a part of fundamental analysis and is certainly looked at.... but you NEED MORE THAN THAT TOPPY.

Some of you may be out of work, and you’re tired of sending out resumes and not getting a response.
Maybe you’ve got a job, but the bills seem to be stacking up faster than your pay is.
Maybe you’ve looked through the family budget and you’ve got no idea how you’re going to save for your retirement or send your kid to college, or maybe you’re a young person who’s just about to get out of school and you’re wondering what your job prospects are going to be.
I hear worries like this all the time in the letters that I read each night from all across the country, and it’s frustrating, and often it’s heartbreaking, and that’s why even though there are plenty of challenges on our plate, everything from Afghanistan to Iran to the oil spill, all critical issues that go to our long-term prosperity and security, nothing is more important than reversing the damage of the great recession and getting folks back to work.

Ford, GM Sales Up Double Digits in June
Published: Thursday, 1 Jul 2010 * 12:13 PM ET Text Size By: ReutersDiggBuzz FacebookTwitter More Share
Ford says its US sales of brand names were up in June 13.3 percent over the same time last year. The automaker says the results were based on new model sales.

And Chrysler says its sales were up 35 percent, beating expectations. It's the third year over year sales improvement for Chrysler.
General Motors reported a 10.7 percent rise in June U.S. sales, helped by strong demand for newly launched vehicles such as the Chevrolet Equinox crossover and a recovery in truck sales.
The largest U.S. automaker sold 195,380 vehicles in June, up from 176,571 vehicles the same month a year ago.
GM had filed for a U.S. government-funded bankruptcy on June 1, 2009.
Sales for GM's four remaining brands—Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac— jumped 36 percent from a year earlier to 194,828 vehicles.
Sales of the brands GM has dropped through its bankruptcy restructuring—Hummer, Pontiac, Saab and Saturn —plunged 98 percent to 552 vehicles as dealers sold off remaining inventory.
Analysts expected most automakers, led by GM, to show double-digit percentage gains in sales from the depressed sales results of a year earlier. That would represent the eighth consecutive month of year-on-year gains.
Industry tracking firm Edmunds.com expected gains of 17 percent for GM, while projecting gains of 33 percent for Chrysler and 17 percent for Ford. [F 10.24 0.16 (+1.59%) ]
Toyota [TM 68.33 -0.24 (-0.35%) ] , tarnished by a series of safety recalls earlier this year, lagged rivals even after it extended sales incentives for a fourth consecutive month to win back consumers, Edmunds said.
The forecasting firm expects Toyota to post gains of 9 percent in June U.S. sales, less than gains of 10 percent and 25 percent it sees for Honda and Nissan, respectively.
Overall, incentives in June held flat from May but rose 6 percent from a year ago led by Toyota, industry tracking firm Truecar.com said. Toyota spent 33 percent more on discounts per vehicle in June than a year ago, sharply above the industry's average of $2,870 per vehicle.
"With the recovery not progressing as expected, it's gut-check time for the automotive industry," Schuster said.
"The industry's (pricing) discipline will be put to the test even more in the coming months if a more pronounced recovery doesn't get under way."
One key measure for the industry will be retail sales of cars, trucks, SUVs and crossovers. Sales gains in recent months, especially for Detroit automakers, have been boosted by sales of less-profitable vehicles to fleet operators, including car rental agencies.
Most automakers do not break out how many of their sales went to consumers and how many to fleet operators.
In one indicator of underlying consumer demand, AutoNation Inc, the leading auto dealership chain, will release its own sales figures Friday.

As we speak, right now, we’re on the verge of passing the most comprehensive financial reform since the Great Depression, reform that will prevent a crisis like this from happening again.
It will protect our economy from the recklessness and irresponsibility of a few on Wall Street.
It will protect consumers against unfair practices of credit card companies and mortgage lenders.
It’s a reform that makes sure taxpayers never have to engage in a bailout for Wall Street’s mistakes.
But I have to tell you, you would think this would be a bipartisan issue, don't you?
I mean, you’d think everybody would say, all right, what we were doing, that didn’t work; we've really got to tighten things up a little bit.
But right now most of our friends in the other party are planning to vote against this reform.
The leader of the Republicans in the House said that financial reform was like, I'm quoting here, “using a nuclear weapon to target an ant.”
That’s what he said.
He compared the financial crisis to an ant.
This is the same financial crisis that led to the loss of nearly 8 million jobs.
The same crisis that cost people their homes, their life savings.
He can't be that out of touch with the struggles of American families.
When you ask men and women who have been out of work for months at a time, who talk about how they’ve been barely hanging on, they don't think this financial crisis was something where you just need a few tweaks.
They know it’s what led to the worst recession since the Great Depression, and they expect their leaders in Washington to do whatever it takes to make sure a crisis like this doesn’t happen again, and so there may be those in Washington who want to maintain the status quo, but we want to move America forward.
There are some folks who are against raising the limit on what companies like BP have to pay if they cause an environmental disaster.
A few of them said they were against the $20 billion fund that we set up to make sure that workers and businesses in the Gulf whose livelihoods have been harmed by the oil spill would get compensation.
They want to take us backwards.
We want to move forward.
