Secondly, once you know a company is reporting soon, what kind of research can you do to get an advance idea of how that earnings report will go?
Thanks!

Welcome to the community! Glad you joined and happy to help you out.
1st question - Yahoo Finance is the best place to find all earnings dates,
US Earnings: Company Earnings Calendar - Yahoo! Finance
2nd question - This is more opinionated, but the way I get an idea of how earnings are "supposed" to go by talking to other investors. Forums, blogs, or general chats with the neighbor can actually all be beneficial if they have valid points. The truth is no one actually knows what will happen, but I like to think the more sources I have to talk to the better decision I can make personally.
