This week’s stock market predictions
Last week the earnings season began in earnest. This week will be even bigger, with over 600 companies reporting their results. One obvious observation from EPS releases so far: the ebullience of the few previous quarters is gone. Big names like Netflix (NFLX), Alcoa (AA) and a number of others saw their prices fall significantly after their earnings hit the tape. If the start of this EPS season is any indication, investors will be reading the upcoming announcements with extra scrutiny and a healthy dose of skepticism.
