The first-quarter earnings season has been strong. With 92% of S&amp;P 500 companies reporting, the EPS beat rate is 78%, near the five-year average. More impressive is the updated Q1 year-over-year earnings growth rate, which, according to FactSet, now stands at 5.4%, significantly above the 3.4% figure from the end of March.<sup>1<\/sup>&nbsp;What\u2019s more, YoY EPS growth estimates for Q2 have ticked up, from 9.0% on March 31 to 9.6% as of May 3. Calendar-year S&amp;P 500\u00ae per-share earnings are now seen near $244, actually rising in recent weeks, bucking the normal trend of declining EPS forecasts during a given year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-s-the-slowdown\">Where\u2019s the Slowdown?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Continued decent consumer spending, heavy corporate capex trends (thank you, AI), and beefy profit margins all contribute to an environment conducive to both resilient economic output and record company profits. And though the first-quarter US GDP print came in lower than expected, mainly due to weak net export activity and a decline in business inventory, early signs point to an acceleration in the economic expansion rate this quarter.<sup>2<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rate-cuts-on-the-horizon-in-europe\">Rate Cuts on the Horizon in Europe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So, despite some dire predictions of tepid US real GDP growth in 2024, particularly during the middle of the year, it appears to be a pretty good time if you\u2019re a CEO at a multinational corporation. (Alas, we are merely data analysts and researchers!) But things are fine on that front, too, as the unemployment rate in the US remains not far from multi-decade lows while the inflation trajectory is generally heading in the right direction. There are even better consumer price trends in overseas markets with the potential for rate cuts sooner rather than later in some developed ex-US economies.<sup>3<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-stocks-snap-back-foreign-markets-perk-up\">Stocks Snap Back, Foreign Markets Perk Up<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of the markets, equities seemed to have gotten through a dose of April malaise. The S&amp;P 500 notched a strong start to May while other countries, namely the UK, have seen their home indexes notch fresh highs.<sup>4<\/sup>&nbsp;Even China, a chronic underperformer since early 2021, has enjoyed a quick bullish turnaround, now up by more than 30% from its January nadir. There are clearly some macro tailwinds at play, but investors surely know that volatility can lurk right around the corner. There was a similar feeling of optimism early last summer before a 10% correction reset the playing field before year-end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conference-activity-heats-back-up\">Conference Activity Heats Back Up<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With the bulk of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wallstreethorizon.com\/blog\/CEO-Uncertainty-Remains-High-Even-As-Q1-Earnings-Season-Ends-Better-than-Expected\">Q1 earnings reports in the bag<\/a>, the focus shifts to reading between the lines at corporate conferences. Investment meeting gatherings of top executives, thought leaders, industry experts, and Wall Street analysts often produce key insights into the state of narrow niches of the economy. By piecing together tidbits of intel here and there, investors can gain a better understanding of where risk and opportunity may soon assert themselves.
