Can they keep their momentum?

5 Hottest Earnings Charts This Week

1.    Whirlpool Corp. (WHR - Free Report) has beat 11 quarters in a row as appliances remain red hot during the pandemic. Shares are up 18% year-to-date but are off their highs as some worry that the housing boom may be cooling. Shares are still dirt cheap, with a forward P/E of just 9.2.

2.    Abbott Laboratories (ABT - Free Report) is coming off its first miss in 5 years. But it still has an amazing earnings track record, even with the rare miss. Shares are up 8.6% year-to-date. It’s not cheap, though, with a forward P/E of 27. Is it priced for perfection?

3.    Domino’s Pizza, Inc. (DPZ - Free Report) has beat 2 out of the last 4 quarters, including last quarter. Shares are up 24% year-to-date to new all-time highs. It has been a big pandemic winner as consumers have eaten at home. But at 37x forward earnings, is it too hot to handle?

4.    Danaher Corp. (DHR - Free Report) hasn’t missed in 5 years. That’s an impressive record with an ongoing pandemic. Shares are up 27% year-to-date and are at a 5-year high. It’s trading at 32x. Is valuation an issue?

5.    Pool Corp. (POOL - Free Report) has beat 8 quarters in a row including 3 huge beats the last 3 quarters as it cashed in on pandemic demand for pools and other outdoor merchandise. Shares have gained 21% year-to-date but are off the recent highs. Can it continue to post this red-hot growth?
