Reading earning call transcripts?

Hey guys,


Just started as an analyst at a start up hedge fund and it turns out that none of the senior analyst or the PM read or listen to earning calls? I've never came across this in my short stint in the HF industry. Is it weird to think these people are absolute amateurs and I should run fast?

 

Read the topics on the 14 or 14/A. Then burrow into the Q or K related to it. Meanwhile, watch some BBG news data. FOCUS on what really matters. Knowing the two will teach you how to read between the lines and get the real truth.
