Earnings Continue to Drive Markets

Earnings Continue to Drive Markets

Story by Carter Smith

 

Well, the news flow out of the Middle East is constant, and this morning Axios reported that a deal with Iran may be imminent. But the headlines can change every hour, and if you are investing based on the news, you’re missing what really matters: earnings. 

Earnings reports are flying in each day, and 85% of companies are beating estimates. But two trends are evident this season. High-valuation companies not only have to beat expectations, but they also must raise guidance. If not, the stock stumbles, as noted by Arista Networks yesterday. However, low P/E companies that beat estimates are being rewarded, and UBER will be an example of that today. 

The point is that earnings drive stocks over the long run, not Middle East headlines. Invest wisely and investigate what really matters.
