Read MoreHide Full Article

Earnings season isn’t over yet. Another 1000+ companies are reporting earnings this week including restaurants, retailers, technology, recent IPOs and other hot names.

Tracey has gone through the charts so you don’t have to. These are the companies with some of the best earnings charts to start the week.

It’s not easy to beat on the earnings consensus nearly every quarter. These 5 companies, however, have done just that.

But does that mean their stocks are soaring?

A couple of them are in the dreaded retail sector. But not all retail stocks are struggling.

Will these companies continue with their hot earnings surprise streaks this quarter?

The Best Earnings Charts to Start the Week

1.    Ralph Lauren (RL - Free Report) has missed only one time in the last 5 years but shares have still sunk to near 5-year lows. What could turn it around?

2.    Michael Kors has seen a slowdown in women’s handbags. Even though it hasn’t missed in 5 years, shares are near 5-year lows. Will acquisitions right the ship?

3.    Wayfair (W - Free Report) has only missed once since its 2014 IPO. Shares have soared in 2017 even though the company isn’t expected to be profitable this year or next. Do investors care about profits anymore?

4.    Disney (DIS - Free Report) has hit it out of the park with the Star Wars movies and the strong global economy means its theme parks are humming along. Then what’s the problem with the stock? Why is it stuck in this narrow trading range?

5.    Priceline hasn’t missed in 5 years. This online travel company is the gold standard in the travel industry. After several years of treading water, shares have finally broken out to new highs. But can they stay there?
