Eile oli USA börsidel näha mõningast kasumivõtmist koos viimaste nädalate suurima käibega. Enne 1Q tulemuste avalikustamist on turg võimsalt üles ostetud ja ettevõtetele pettumusruumi ilmselt jäetud ei ole. Eelmisel aastal oli konsensus EPSi prognoosimisel liiga tagasihoidlik (üsna tavaline kriisist taastumise korral) ja paljud ootavad, et ka sellel aastal jätkavad ettevõtted oodatust paremate tulemuste raporteerimist. Tulemuste hooaja avab järgmisel esmaspäeval Alcoa. Bespoke'ilt ka üks graafik, millal ülejäänud tulemused tulevad:
-
Makro poole pealt teatatakse täna kl 15.30 USA esmaste töötu abiraha taotlejate number (ootus 435K) ja kestvate töötu abiraha taotlejate number (ootus 4630K). Mõlemad numbrid peaks ootuste järgi võrreldes eelmise nädalaga vähenema ja näitama paranemist USA tööturul.
Euroopas on täna Euroopa Keskpanga kohtumine, kus konsensus baasintressimäära tõstmist praeguse 1% juurest ei oota.

Palmi kehvadest kvartalitulemustest ja hädistest prognoosidest motiveeritud lühikeseks müüjad olid hoolega eile positsioone katmas, kergitades aktsia hinda 20% 4.62 dollarile. Kuigi osad analüüsimajad on väljas koguni 0 dollari suuruse hinnasihiga, tõdetakse et mobiiltelefonitootja võib surmasuust päästa vaid mõni ülevõtja. Eile läksidki liikvele spekulatsioonid, et Hiina arvutitootja Lenovo võiks olla potentsiaalne ostja, kuna tegevjuht rääkis ühes Saksa ajalehes plaanidest võtta mobiilse interneti äri ülesehitamiseks üle ettevõtteid. Kuigi Palmi nimi ei tulnud kordagi jutuks, eeldatakse, et tänu sidemetele operaatoritega võiks Palmi bränd siiski mingit väärtust pakkuda.

Euroopa aktsiaturudel on täna korralik kasumite lukustamine ja eurost jätkatakse väljumist. Kreeka valitsuse võlakirjad on kukkunud juba seitse päeva järjest, kuigi riigi rahandusminister kinnitab, et Kreekal ei ole rohkem abi vaja (loe pikemalt siit). Steve Barrow Standard Bankist ütleb tabavalt: “Greece continues to look like a slow-motion train crash”.

Üks teema, mis peaks tänasel Euroopa Keskpanga pressikonverentsil kindlasti huvi pakkuma, on detailsem ülevaade laenude tagatisnõuetest. Olgugi, et EKP otsustas kriisi ohjamiseks madalamale asetatud nõudeid mitte enne 2011.a muuta, peaks lisanduv riskipreemiasüsteem laenamise Kreeka pankade jaoks siiski kallimaks muutma. Lähemalt saab sellest lugeda Bloombergi artiklist.

marti837, panen siia Citi pos. kommentaari sektori kohta enne 1Q10 tulemusi:
We are adjusting 2010-11EPS estimates for our fertilizer companies generally upwards ahead of the 1Q earnings season. Our updated estimates reflect stronger potash volumes, partially offset by weaker margins in phosphates. We have also raised our long term potash price estimate to $400/mt from $370/mt, and our 2010 DAP price to $400/t (see page 2 for full assumptions). Our favorite name in Ag remains AGU; we are Hold rated on POT & MOS. We are also updating our MON estimate to reflect earnings pushed out into fiscal 2H.

Rev Shark: Bumpy Road Ahead
04/08/2010 7:45 AMThe bumps in the road just make the ride more fun.
-- J.P. WinklerWith the market finally stumbling a bit and earnings season fast approaching, conditions are ripe for some change in the character of the action. I highly doubt that we are going to suddenly collapse, but I do think there is a good chance that the action will become choppier and that volatility will pick up.
Typically, when the market makes a big run into earnings season, there is a tendency for a "sell the news" reaction to report. Obviously when we have a strong run-up in the market, it is due in part because expectations for good news are increasing. An earnings report that may have been celebrated when a stock was 20% lower may not be so warmly greeted at higher prices.
Another thing that suggests that we may see choppier action going forward is that the mood of the market has been so complacent and sanguine for so long. There has been very little strong emotion, and that has led to this steady upward drift with little volatility. We haven't had any big surge in volume or signs of frenzy to indicate that wild speculation is taking place but there certainly there hasn't been any great worry or concern either.
One thing we know for sure about emotions is that they eventually change. Periods of complacency usually lead to periods of greater worry. Typically some fundamental catalyst is needed to hasten the shift, and earnings season is ideal for that.
The bears need to recognize about this market is that it has been so strong that it is very unlikely to just suddenly fall apart. There is strong underlying support, and spikes to the downside are very likely to attract buyers rather than frighten them away.
Dip-buyers can be a very stubborn group, especially when we have been in an environment where they have not had any good opportunities for months. There are a lot of folks who have been sitting on the sidelines, not so patiently, and they are anxious to buy some of their favorites as they pull back. We can't underestimate the power of this group that has provided tremendous support for this market for over a year now.
Just because we have a little weakness, we should not be looking for the market to collapse; on the other hand, we need to watch for an increase in volatility, especially as earnings reports roll out. The good news is that it will likely make for a more interesting trading environment, but it will require more aggressive management of positions.
We have a little softness again this morning. It is very unusual to see downside follow-through last for long, but overseas markets are almost all in the red and concerns over the financial problems in Greece are bubbling up once again.
Buckle up. The ride is going to get bumpier.

Jaemüük on märtsis olnud väga korralik:
Analysts were expecting retailers to report their strongest monthly sales gains in 16 years. So far, many retailers, including Costco, Limited, and Zumiez have outpaced Wall Street's expectations. (täpsemalt saab erinevate jaemüüjate tulemusi vaadata siit)
