For the full year, our Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $2.65 per share and revenue of $26.12 billion, which would represent changes of +9.5% and +5.65%, respectively, from the prior year.

Based on our research, we believe these estimate revisions are directly related to near-team stock moves. We developed the Zacks Rank to capitalize on this phenomenon. Our system takes these estimate changes into account and delivers a clear, actionable rating model.
