From Briefing.com....(DAYTRADER): Only one week to go until a month before Yahoo! (YHOO) reports quarterly results. That is to say, Yahoo! due to release earnings in about five weeks. Why should you care?: Because almost like clockwork, Internet stocks have begun their quarterly race-for-the-riches about one month before YHOO's earnings. As the attached table demonstrates, Yahoo! shares have been a bottle-rocket during this period. Other net stocks such as Amazon.com have also participated in the move. Stock March Qtr (Q1) December Qtr (Q4) September Qtr (Q3) Yahoo! (YHOO) +26% +112% +48% Amazon.com (AMZN) +50% +148% +17% Over the past three quarters, YHOO has jumped an average of 62% during the month leading up its quarterly report, while AMZN has scooted an average of 72%... Just like life, Internet stocks come with no guarantees. But in a momentum-driven market, investors/traders always looking for the next catalyst.. Over the past year, the anticipation of YHOO's earnings has been just the shot-in-the-arm needed to lift Internet stocks out of their corrective funk.
