Earnings seasons are four times a year. The season stretches from early January to early February, from early April to early May, from early July to early August, and from early October to early November.  This is where the majority of America's corporations report their quarter's sales and earnings.  Investors turn their attention toward the first quarter earnings season.  As a rule, most American corporations report their quarterly results either before the stock market opens, often at 7:00 AM (Eastern Time), or after the market closes 4:00 PM (Eastern Time). This gives the investors time to react to these earning reports and to act before trading starts.
