Low Quality, Muddled Macro Messages, 2023 EPS Softening vs. 2024 Recovery
About this episode
This week in the podcast, we reflect on the most interesting question we received last week, and our latest thoughts on earnings. Three big things you need to know today: First, low quality leadership has returned, something that’s normal after recession lows have been put in. Second, macro themes were muddled in last week’s S&P 500 earnings calls helping explain why the rally has stumbled a bit. Third, earnings related data points continue to highlight near-term softening at the same time that a case for an earnings recovery in 2024 is emerging, highlighting the conflicting cross currents equities are grappling with.
