Third-quarter earnings season off to a 'mixed start', Barclays says

Investing.com -- The third-quarter earnings season is off to a mixed start, with better-than-anticipated results being rewarded in the US and misses being"severely punished in Europe", according to analysts at Barclays.

"While it is too early to draw conclusions, results have so far confirmed our expectations," they said. By contrast, US numbers have looked relatively"good so far", the Barclays analysts argued. Banks in particular have mostly surprised to the upside, fueling positive investor sentiment, they said.However, the Barclays analysts flagged the bulk of the reporting period lies ahead and"more dispersion should be expected in the coming weeks, and likely more downgrades, too, given the still high consensus estimates for 2025.

Even still, the analysts said the mixed earnings should not be a big surprise to markets,"nor alter the overall direction of travel for equities."
