The 10 Most Volatile Post-Earnings Stocks In The Midst Of One Helluva Streak

Traders looking for ideas in earnings season might want to consider stocks that move heavily after earnings. A pop — up or down — can lead to short-term profits if the right direction is picked.

Fortunately, Bespoke Investment Group just released a list of the most volatile S&P 500 stocks by average one-day price change after earnings. In other words, these stocks move the most on average following the release of quarterly results.

The full list is below, but let's take it a step further — we'll cherry pick the most volatile names coming off EPS beats (or in-line results) in at least three consecutive quarters. No, Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) didn't make the cut, but these names did:

• Akamai Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: AKAM): 7 consecutive quarters of EPS beats or meets, 11.7 percent average change after results.
• Michael Kors Holdings Ltd (NYSE: KORS): 3 consecutive quarters, 10.3 percent average change.
