Q4 Earnings – Week 2017-02-19
Markets are still heavily skewed to watching Trump headlines and professional investors are more and more often adding the so called “Trump factor” to their expected return calculations. Some valuations are overstretched, especially financials while the energy is on negative toowith the heavy debt load and current outlook for oil.
On the other hand, the cost of protectionc and hedging is pretty low with VIX trading around 11.50. Such a low level provides us with an interesting opportunity to hedge stock portfolios in case Trump doesn’t deliver on Feb 28 when the joint committee session before US Congress takes place. Then we have Mar 15 with FOMC and G10 FinMin and central bankers meeting right after on Mar 17-18.
But what are we up to this week apart from FOMC Minutes that can provide some clues about potential Mar 15 rate hike that is priced at 40%?
Wall-Mart Stores – investors are curious about effects of pushing strongly e-commerce and consolidation of store sales with e-sales
Home Depot – expected to report better numbers as the real estate market and related sales are strong in US. As the chain is relying on imports from Mexico, any comments on Trump border tax initiative will be watched as it is the case of Wall-Mart Store as well.
First Solar – to report loss due to write-offs and restructuring
HP – market is expecting a rise in profit from increased stability in PC market, effects of job and cost cutting and strong sales of hardware
Tesla – investors are looking at increase in revenue on growing sales. What definitely, will not pass by unnoticed are the comments from Elon Musk on company plans for 2017 including update on its Gigafactory, Model 3and SolarCity developments.
Baidu – markets are expecting smaller revenue growth due to new regulation in advertising and will listen closely to upcoming projects and artificial intelligence efforts
