Why is this important?

A positive reading of Zacks Earnings ESP has proven to be very powerful in producing both positive surprises and outperforming the market. Our recent 10-year backtest shows that stocks that have a positive ESP on earnings and a Zacks Rank # 3 (Hold) or better show a positive surprise almost 70% of the time, and have generated more than 28% on average of annual returns (see Continuation The Most Profitable ESP Stocks Here).

Since BOOT has a Zacks Rank # 1 (strong buy) and ESP in positive territory, investors might want to consider this stock before earnings. You can see The full list of today’s Zacks # 1 Rank stocks here.
