Freeport-McMoRan is anticipated to report a quarterly EPS of $0.23. Investors are focused on earnings beat and positive future guidance. Historical data shows stock price declines following earnings beats.
Given the historical trend of stock price declines after earnings beats and the current bearish sentiment indicated by the 18.03% drop over the last 52 weeks, it is likely that FCX's stock price may experience a short-term decline post-earnings announcement, especially if the company fails to provide strong future guidance.
