    I'm looking for a financial website that shows EPS percent change for the current quarter, the previous quarter, and 2 quarters ago for any stock symbol entered. I'm looking for the percent change (%) not the actual EPS numbers.

    (someone might notice I already asked this question in another forum-stocks. Since I didn't receive any answers, I looked around and this seems to be a more appropriate forum for my question, so I'm trying again)

    Thanks for the suggestion. Zacks only shows this year's quarters information for earnings (I'm assuming it's EPS although they don't say so) and what I need is the comparison with the quarter one year previous. So I need the current (ie: 12-31-16) and the same quarter one year ago (12-31-15)...then the calculation enumerating the % change from one to the other.

    This is one of the basic concepts in the CANSLIM system and it's surprising how difficult it is to find this EPS % Chg information. Except, of course, on the investors.com(IBD) website...where you have to pay monthly for what is said to be a pretty inept website.

    I also have this information in my TC2000 program, but it seems to be very inaccurate and erratic...which is why I have to keep looking.

    Yes, barata, if you want that info{%} for TGT or any stock, google TGT chart, IBD or research.investors.com. That is the IBD free web service, you dont have to sign up- you clicked the wrong IBD link if you get a sign up requirement. Wisdom is profitable to direct.
