Good MorningInvestors breathed a sigh of relief on Tuesday after the first big reports of the earnings season were released. Reports from the likes of JP Morgan, Wells Fargo, and Citigroup were a mixed bag but suggest two things are true about the economy. The first is that the economic downturn did not have as big an impact on earnings as expected. The second is that current consensus figures for full-year 2020 are too low.
Equities markets advanced on the news although the action on Tuesday saw some volatility. The S&P 500 was up 1.35% by the end of the day although gains were capped by big tech. The S&P 500 Technology Select Sector ETF advanced a smaller 0.50% due to weakness in the FAANG names. The upshot is that both the ETF and FAANG stocks made solid bounces from key support levels so higher prices are still in the forecast.
