Please note, earnings estimates provided by Macroaxis are the average expectations of expert analysts that we track. If a given stock such as Caterpillar fails to match professional earnings estimates, it usually performs purely. Wall Street refers to that as a 'negative surprise.' If a company 'beats' future estimates, it's usually called an 'upside surprise.'
