Global corporate profits tanked 33% through 2nd quarter and won't rebound 'anytime soon,' JPMorgan says

For one, researchers Joseph Lupton and Olya Borichevska expected a bigger plunge. Global earnings sank 33% in the year through the second quarter, according to the firm. The slump is on par with the trend seen during the financial crisis and hit certain sectors, such as travel and hospitality firms, far harder than others.

"The picture remains grim and we still anticipate an incomplete recovery that will prevent the return of profits to pre-pandemic levels anytime soon," the researchers wrote in a note to clients.

Certain companies and countries will return to pre-pandemic profitability before others, the bank added. Tech sector earnings fared the best through the first half of 2020, only falling 0.1% on a non-annualized basis, according to the researchers. Health care and consumer staples firms followed with earnings declines of 4.7% and 5.5%, respectively.
