Earnings Season with Brandon Reed, CFA® (Ep. 145)

When evaluating a company's stock, earnings are one of the most important factors. Earnings show a company's real profitability, historical performance, and performance against competitors and industry peers. On this episode of Upticks, Brandon Reed, CFA®, joins Jake to discuss earnings season and the current market environment.   Upticks is a show/podcast sponsored by Falcon Wealth Advisors and hosted by Jake Falcon, CRPC® that is dedicated to retirement planning.  Our goal is to translate complicated financial jargon about planning and investments into an understandable language that most anyone can understand.    Falcon Wealth Advisors is an independent-minded wealth management practice located in the Kansas City metro.  Our team of 11 professionals specializes in retirement planning for individuals.  We help our clients make important decisions around when to retire, social security, health insurance, tax planning, and many other financial planning topics.    In addition to helping our clients plan for a successful retirement we also implement investments solutions.  We believe that what sets us apart is our philosophy to avoid investment products and instead buy/sell individual stocks, bonds, and options for our clients.  We do this to eliminate the middle man which we believe increases control and transparency, and decreases fees.    Clients choose to work with us to enhance their financial literacy and explain exactly what their financial plan means to them.   Visit Our Website https://www.falconwealthadvisors.com/   Listen to our Podcasts  https://www.falconwealthadvisors.com/content.html   We're Social! https://www.facebook.com/FalconWAdvisors/ https://www.instagram.com/falconwadvisors/ https://twitter.com/FalconWAdvisors https://www.linkedin.com/company/falcon-wealth-advisors/   Connect with Jake Falcon, CRPC https://www.facebook.com/jake.falcon.524 https://www.instagram.com/jake_falcon_crpc/?hl=en https://twitter.com/jakefalconcrpc https://www.linkedin.com/in/jakefalconfalconwealthadvisors
