The Bottom Line: Watching for responses to bad news!

Investors are confronted with a series of bad news events this week:

· News from the FOMC meeting on Wednesday. Members of the Committee hinted that they will “stand pat” with the current Fed Fund Rate at 5.00%-5.25% in anticipation of more “data points” (including the May Consumer Price Index on Tuesday and the May Producer Price index Wednesday). Consensus calls for a 0.25% increase in the Fed Fund Rate to 5.25%-5.50% at the next meeting on July 25th/July 26th. Responses to the report by individual FOMC members and by analysts on Wednesday will provide short term guidance for traders

· A difficult second quarter earnings report season. Quarterly earnings declines on a year-over-year basis by major companies on both sides of the border are expected to accelerate. On the other hand, analysts are projecting a bottoming of quarterly earnings in the third quarter followed by a strong recovery in the fourth quarter of 2023 followed by robust gains in 2024. Responses to a relatively small number of quarterly reports released this week will be watched closely.

· A changing intermediate term technical picture. Momentum leadership last week by the technology sector faded while the technical picture in other economic sensitive sectors improved. Most notable was strength in the Consumer Discretion and Industrial sectors.

· Negative seasonal influences for U.S. and Canadian broadly based equity indices and related ETFs. They have a history of moving lower during the second and third weeks in June followed by an important recovery starting late in the month that lasts through July (and occasionally can last to early September). Expiry of the June listed options cycle late this week and early next week tends to raise volatility. See Tom Bowley’s link below. Note his favourable comments on the Industrial sector.

Consensus for Earnings and Revenues for S&P 500 Companies

Source: www.Factset.com

Earnings and revenue estimates for remainder of the year eased slightly again. Consensus for the second quarter calls for a drop of 6.4% in earnings and a drop of 0.4% in revenues (versus a drop of 0.3% last week). Consensus for the third quarter calls for an increase of 0.8% in earnings (versus an increase of 0.9% last week) and a 1.2% increase in revenues. Consensus for the fourth quarter calls for an 8.2% increase in earnings (versus an increase of 8.3% last week) and a 3.2% increase in revenues (versus an increase of 3.5% last week). For all of 2023, consensus calls for an increase of 1.2% in earnings and a 2.4% increase in revenues.

Earnings and revenue growth continues beyond the fourth quarter. Consensus for 2024 calls for a 12.3% increase in earnings and a 4.9% increase in revenues.
