What We Learned:
1. A stock is a type of investment that gives you a share of ownership in a company.
2. A company's profitability can be measured through earnings per share (EPS) and profit margin.
3. A company reports its earnings quarterly, it provides information about its past quarter performance and future quarter expectations, which can impact the value of its stock.
4. It is good to see increasing EPS and revenue, expanding profit margins, and optimistic forward looking guidance
