Earnings Week (08/02-08/06): Move Predictions, IV Crush

Below I've posted a compiled spreadsheet (Google Drive spreadsheet), outlining a large portion of upcoming earning releases for the week of August 2 through August 6, 2021. Options market overestimation percentages, predicted/actual earnings release moves, and average implied volatility (IV) numbers have all been sourced from Market Chameleon (https://marketchameleon.com/Overview/CGC/Earnings/Earnings-Charts/).

If and where I've posted quarterly analyst revision numbers, that data has been sourced from Seeking Alpha (https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/NXPI/earnings/revisions#figure_type=quarterly). PLEASE take any analyst "recommendations" with a literal kilogram of salt, as any/all critical thinkers have noted a tendency toward foul play with "analyst" target numbers and recommendations (hint, they do not have YOUR best interests in mind).

Current prices are obviously as of market close, Friday, 07/30/2021. The most important data provided lie in the first five columns immediately proceeding "Current Price."

This spreadsheet provides a readily accessible, macro view of potential earnings plays for the week. I often use this overview to aid with decisions to either buy or write put/call spreads, credit/debit iron condors, or more standard long plays with protective puts, dependent upon overall market volatility (VIX), and equity-specific IV.

Please post any comments/questions/concerns, and best of luck this busy week traders.
