When is the earnings announcement?

According to SI and Briefing.com, the earnings is supposed to be announced on 4/22 after market. However, the following news earning schedule from Reuters is confusing me. It says it's 4/20.

NEW YORK, April 17 (Reuters) - The following are tentative quarterly earnings reporting dates and analysts' mean estimates of select U.S. companies. Reporting dates have been compiled by Reuters. Earnings estimates are provided by First Call.

Been keeping my powder dry since last Sept except for a few short term trades. I missed the entire downturn in Oct-Dec. :-) I also missed the run to 9000 :-( and will miss the rest of this move north.

It is not worth the risk IMHO!!! I am just being the devils advocate when I say MSFT is not overvalued but I also know that overvalued does not count in the mania we are now seeing.
