Read MoreHide Full Article

This is a big week for earnings as over 1,000 companies are set to report across every sector and industry.

While most of FAANG has reported, Apple remains the final holdout. It has the best earnings surprise record of the group, though, with just 1 miss in the last 5 years.

But there are plenty of other companies with great earnings track records reporting this week too.

It’s not easy to beat every quarter, or nearly every quarter, for 5 years but these companies have been doing it.

It takes a combination of good management, communication with analysts, and some luck.

Will they keep their track records?
