The Bottom Line

The strongest period of seasonal strength in the year for North American equity indices from October 27th to January 5th “started with a bang” last week. The S&P 500 Index jumped % and the TSX Composite Index advanced %. Trigger for the advance was news that the Federal Reserve held the Fed Fund Rate unchanged at 5.25%-5.50% and has no plans to increase the Rate any time soon. Added to the news was release of better than consensus quarterly earnings reports: According to www.Factset.com Eighty two percent of reporting S&P 500 companies released higher than consensus quarterly earnings.

 

Consensus for Earnings and Revenues for S&P 500 Companies

Consensus earnings estimates for the third quarter of 2023 increased again last week. Updated consensus for the third quarter on a year-over-year basis is an earnings increase of 3.7% (versus a previous increase of 2.7%). Third quarter revenues are expected to increase 2.3% (versus previous increase of 3.8%).

Estimates beyond the third quarter were lowered again. Fourth quarter earnings are expected to increase 3.9% (versus previous increase of 5.3%). Fourth quarter revenues are expected to increase 3.5% (versus previous increase of 3.8%). For all of 2023, consensus calls for an earnings increase of 0.6% (versus previous increase of 0.9%). Revenues are expected to increase 2.4%.

The recovery continues into 2024, but at a declining rate from last week. Consensus for the first quarter on a year-over-year basis calls for an earnings increase of 7.1 % (versus previous increase of 7.6%) and a revenue increase of 4.4% (versus previous increase of 4.5%). Consensus for the second quarter calls for a 10.8% earnings increase (versus previous increase of 11.2%) and a 5.1% increase in revenues (versus previous 5.3%).

  1. Ron/BC Says:

    $WTIC topped out in the first half of 2022. Price broke below its 200ema in August 2022 and then recleared it in August 2023 after spending one year below. Price bounced back to its Oct 2022 price high in late September and has since sold off to its 200ema once again, falling below its Oct price low. Technicals are weakening and price needs to hold above this level to suggest returning to an uptrend again. Not looking good for Oil. So much for geopolitical events……..
