This is the fun week for earnings season as over 100 S&P 500 companies are expected to report earnings, many of which are investor favorites on the Street.

But these 5 stand out. Two of them have perfect 5-year earnings surprise track records and a third has only missed once.

1. Qualcomm (QCOM - Free Report)

Will an earnings beat continue to turn around Spotify’s shares?
3. Honeywell (HON - Free Report)
Honeywell is another earnings all-star, as it hasn’t missed in 5 years. That’s impressive during a pandemic which is entering into its third year.
Honeywell shares have weakened over the past 6 months, falling 12.2% during that time, but are down only 1.5% in 2022.

Ralph Lauren trades with a forward P/E of just 14.8, which would make it a value stock.
