  • Early Morning Vibes: 4 Stocks We Like for Friday

    Early Morning Vibes: 4 Stocks We Like for Friday

    On January 14, the American stock indices closed in the red. The S&P 500 index dropped 0.38% to 3796 points, the NASDAQ dropped 0.12%, the Dow Jones lost 0.22%. The weakening of optimism was due to macrostats. The number of initial applications for unemployment benefits for the week unexpectedly rose to the highest in five months. However, the flow of capital to small-cap stocks continued, with the Russel 2000 up 2.05%. The energy sector was again the leader of growth (+ 3.01%), while the IT sector was down 0.95% under the influence of weak performance in FAANG shares.

    Corporate news

    Delta Air Lines (DAL: + 2.5%) quarterly report was stronger than investors expected as revenue outperformed forecast.

    BlackRock (BLK: -4.7%) posted better-than-expected revenue and bottom line, but capital inflows to funds were weak.

    Semiconductor manufacturer Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM: + 6.1%) raised its forecast for average revenue growth over the next five years to 10-15% from 5-10%. TSM’s quarterly report was overall better than forecast.

    Global stock markets are showing mixed dynamics. President-elect Joe Biden has unveiled a $ 1.9 trillion bailout package that will be funded by increasing government debt. The bulk of this amount will go to help households, including through direct payments to Americans in the amount of $ 1400. About $ 400 billion is expected to be allocated to fight the virus and a vaccination campaign. In February, Biden will unveil an addendum to the announced plan that will include infrastructure costs. However, investors were not too encouraged by this: S&P 500 futures are showing a slight decline. This is partly due to the fact that the presented program almost coincided with the expectations of market participants, who, at the same time, would like to hear more details about infrastructure costs.

    The scale of monetary stimulus, most likely, will not start to decrease soon. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell reiterated yesterday that rates will not be raised for a long time. The first hike is still expected in 2023. Powell noted that the Fed will start signaling plans to scale back its asset purchase program in advance.

    December retail sales data will be released today. A decrease of 0.2% m / m is expected after falling by 1.1% in November, which is associated with the preservation of a number of quarantine measures in the United States, restricting, in particular, the work of the catering sector. The data for January should reflect the effect of direct payments to the population at the end of December.

    JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM) will report for the past quarter today. Earnings per share, according to general market expectations, should increase by 3.89% YoY to $ 2.67, and the bank’s non-interest segment revenue will increase by about 20% yoy. This rapid growth will be driven by increased operational activity in investment banking and trading. The bank’s net interest margin is forecast to plateau in the third quarter, so a trend reversal is likely in the fourth quarter report on the back of rising 10-year US government bond yields.

    Sentiment Index

    Sentiment Index from Freedom Finance unchanged at around 58 out of 100. The indicator reflects the hope of market participants for a recovery in the global economy in 2021. Concerns about the negative impact of the coronavirus pandemic are diminishing thanks to the prospect of mass vaccinations.

    Technical picture

    Technically, the S&P 500 is still prone to short-term consolidation. During yesterday’s session, the broad market index tested its maximum and corrected. There is a risk of formation of a “double top” pattern, which will be conducive to correction. The RSI indicator remains close to the overbought zone, which limits the growth prospects.
