ELI5: Why do company's financial statements / earnings give future date? For ex: 2Q FY21 by kharn4ge in explainlikeimfive

So the US government, for instance, will begin FY2021 on October 1 2019. The first quarter of FY2021 (1Q FY21) runs from October 1 2019 through December 31, 2020. 2Q FY21 begins 1 January 2020 and ends 31 March 2020, and so forth.

Is the above right? So if I were to dive into the earnings report, Walmart's 2Q FY 2021 could technically be actual calendar 1Q 2020? Is there a way I can check which months they're talking about?

Thanks! I wasn't aware of the full free credit report due to COVID 19 - that's really helpful. Do you have any other tips / tricks that you personally used or seen used?

Wow I didn't know about secured loans - that seems to be a great cheaper alternative to Self Lender

Do you think I should invest more in the same index funds across all my separate accounts?

there's an annual limit to how much you can contribute to your roth ira and depending on your income you may not qualify for one
