Williams Companies Stock Near Buy Zone Before Next Earnings Report

Williams Companies

With its next earnings report set for around Aug. 1, Williams Companies is currently about 11% below a 38.07 buy point. The entry is based on a second-stage consolidation.

Keep in mind that buying a stock just before it reports is risky, since an EPS or sales miss could send it sharply lower. You can minimize your risk by waiting to see how the company reports and how the market reacts. You can also use an options strategy to limit your potential downside.
