You only have 2k to play with...you don't need to add more stocks, you need less. Find 1 or 2 companies that you want to invest in longer term and work on saving more money to invest.

They aren't just reporting earnings they also report guidance. If their guidance is negative going forward the stock will drop. Earnings are not the end all be all.
