Wall Street analysts are revising their outlook for Q3 2024 earnings, expecting a notable cooling for the S&P 500. Earnings per share (EPS)* for the index are forecasted to drop by 3.9%, marking a sharper-than-usual reduction.
A cooling outlook comes despite hopes that the Federal Reserve’s rate hikes may be stabilizing and that inflation* will soften, allowing growth sectors to regain momentum.
Key Sectors and Trends:
Information Technology:
- Positive Outlook: Amidst the cooling earnings environment, the information technology (IT) sector remains a bright spot. Analysts have actually revised EPS estimates upward by 0.3% during the quarter, signaling continued strength in tech.
- Key Players: Giants like Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia have been pivotal in driving tech performance, buoyed by demand for AI and cloud computing.
Financials:
- Mixed Results: The financial sector has a varied outlook. While banks are expected to post a slight decline in earnings, other areas within the financial industry are forecasted to perform better.
- Big Banks on Deck: Major financial institutions such as JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and Citigroup will kick off the earnings season, providing crucial insight into the sector’s overall health.
Consumer Discretionary and Energy Sectors:
- These sectors are expected to underperform, reflecting weaker consumer demand and fluctuating energy prices. Higher interest rates may be affecting consumer behavior, leading to slower spending in discretionary areas, while energy prices remain volatile amid global uncertainties.
Economic Backdrop:
- Federal Reserve Policy: With rate hikes potentially pausing, there’s anticipation that inflation will stabilize, though challenges remain. The Fed’s actions continue to be a pivotal influence on market expectations.
- Market Sentiment: Despite slower growth projections, there’s still optimism about tech’s dominance and its potential to lift overall S&P 500 performance. A cautious approach prevails, especially with continued geopolitical uncertainties.
Upcoming Catalysts:
Earnings Season Start:
- Financials are the first to report, with JPMorgan and Wells Fargo expected to set the tone. Investors will closely monitor these results for guidance on future market direction.
Broader Market Impact:
- The Q3 earnings season will provide further insight into how well sectors have weathered the dual pressures of inflation and higher interest rates.
While the overall outlook is cautious, with many sectors cooling, tech remains a beacon of growth. The broader economic landscape, including interest rates and inflation, continues to shape expectations for both individual sectors and the market as a whole.
