The vast majority of American companies will continue to release quarterly earnings reports.

CryptoWorld News reports that analysts expect the vast majority of U.S. companies will continue to release quarterly earnings reports. Last year, Trump restarted the plan for companies to shift from quarterly to semi-annual reporting, and it is expected that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission will soon formally seek public comment on the proposal to eliminate quarterly reporting requirements. However, investors and market participants say that most companies are unlikely to accept this change because it could harm company valuations. WisdomTree asset management’s macro strategist Sam Reins stated that any company making this change would appear on active fund managers’ screening lists and could be sold off or removed from portfolios, or its valuation might be reconsidered. While JPMorgan supports the proposal, it said it will continue to provide quarterly guidance to the market through calls with analysts and investors. Mike Reynolds, Vice President of Investment Strategy at asset and wealth management firm Glenmede, said that most companies are expected to continue reporting quarterly.
