Methodology
We analyzed the past three years of MKL's earnings reports to calculate the average change in price of the stock before and after earnings.
Before Earnings

- 28 days prior (4 weeks)
- 21 days prior (3 weeks)
- 14 days prior (2 weeks)

- 1 day prior
This simulates an individual purchasing MKL stock on one of those days and selling on the day of the earnings report.
