You are right.
They also reported in Jan 2011 maturity. But you are right before that they reported around the 22nd but that didn't have to be before maturity.

closed my goog jan vol. Lost some money on this. 8% of original investment in the straddles a month and a half ago.
This is too tricky for me.

Quote from cdcaveman:
when do you think taking a look at the pre/intra earnings month calenders will come into play? on apple or goog..
AAPL is known (Feb), and GOOG is still a toss-up. GOOG is probably the play in long Jan/Mar, ATM (720). If GOOG announces a date >1/20 then the calendar will lose $8 within seconds.

I am confident we have a Jan report, but it was smart to get out with the uncertainty. I'll be out by the 26th.
For it to be consistent they have to report on the 19th. That's earlier than any other time they have reported q4 earnings. The last two times they reported on the 20th and 21st respectively and we happend to have a long expiration cycle.
I give this 50/50.

They've been the third Thursday each month this year, save for the April which was 2nd Thurs. It would be unusual to go later than the 17th.
