<<But this is usually only 3 - 4 weeks before and after earnings are announced>> I'm pretty sure the start of the "no buy" period relates to the end of the fiscal quarter, not the date of the earnings announcement. I'm not sure but I suspect that most people use the term "quiet period" to refer to about three days before earnings are announced, when the company can't even talk about them, i.e. can't make pre-announcements. Anybody have firmer info on these rules?
