Nomination's length, date of creation, QPQ all check out. However, the absence of close paraphrasing issues is hard to verify, since the cited source is not available online. Waiting to hear from the nominator. Regards, Cinosaur (talk) 15:45, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
- Hey Cinosaur, thanks for the heads-up. The article in question is actually available on a university's website: I've included a link to it. --Well-rested ^Talk 03:59, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the link, the paper was helpful. No copyvio issues found. The hook reads somewhat bland, but I guess earnings surprises is as exciting a topic as it gets with financial analysis. Good to go. Regards, Cinosaur (talk) 10:21, 5 February 2014 (UTC)
