Earnings Preview

Pulls Yahoo Finance data to build a pre-earnings briefing: consensus EPS and revenue estimates, analyst ranges, the last four quarters of beat/miss history, price targets, and recommendation distribution. It's designed to give you everything in one shot before an earnings call without opening six tabs. The structure is solid, tables for estimates and historical surprises, a section on what metrics to watch based on recent financials. One thing to know is it relies on yfinance, which can lag real-time consensus by a few hours and sometimes returns incomplete data for smaller caps. Best for major tickers where coverage is dense.

If your host has not already executed the shell probes below (for example, in Codex), run the commands inside the ! wrappers with its shell tool before choosing a setup path. Use the actual output; if shell access is unavailable, report that limitation.

Generates a pre-earnings briefing using Yahoo Finance data via yfinance. Pulls together upcoming earnings date, consensus estimates, historical accuracy, analyst sentiment, and key financial context — everything you need before an earnings call.

Important: Data is for research and educational purposes only. Not financial advice. yfinance is not affiliated with Yahoo, Inc.

Step 1: Ensure yfinance Is Available

Current environment status:

!`python3 -c "exec('try:\n import yfinance\n print(\'yfinance \' + yfinance.__version__ + \' installed\')\nexcept Exception:\n print(\'YFINANCE_NOT_INSTALLED\')')"`

If YFINANCE_NOT_INSTALLED, install it:

import subprocess, sys
subprocess.check_call([sys.executable, "-m", "pip", "install", "-q", "yfinance"])

If already installed, skip to the next step.
