Companies are beating estimates but warning of weak demand ahead

Most US companies are beating earnings estimates, but investors aren’t happy., but just 34 per cent are beating sales estimates – the lowest level since early 2014 and way below long-term norms.

In contrast, FactSet data shows 78 per cent of S&P 500 companies have beaten earnings estimates and 62 per cent have topped sales estimates. Nevertheless, only 38 per cent of companies reporting are enjoying a positive share price reaction, says Crossmark Global Investments. Concurring, FactSet notes companies that beat expectations are still seeing their share price fall, while companies that miss estimates are seeing especially heavy declines. Why?

The takeaway: companies are doing pretty well right now, but they’re increasingly concerned regarding coming quarters.
