Analysts predict S&P 500 companies will see another quarter of over 20% earnings growth, primarily driven by the technology sector, particularly semiconductors and memory chip manufacturers. Despite concerns about trade issues, rising oil prices, and potential Federal Reserve interest rate hikes, corporate earnings continue to surprise investors.
“We're going to get another 20% plus earnings growth quarter. It's almost a certainty.”
“It will be driven primarily by tech, particularly the semiconductors and memory names that have been such strong performers.”
“Non-tech earnings growth could be in the high teens this quarter.”
