Better than Expected Earnings, Stocks Lower! How?
Information is not investment advice
Since the beginning of the earnings season, companies are posting record earnings, most sectors have so far beaten the estimates by a large margin. However, stocks reacted differently. Look at Apple, for example. EPS came in at $1.30 vs. $1.01 estimated and Q3 revenue posted $81.4B vs. $73.82 expected. Everything came in much better than expected, including iPhone, wearables, home & accessories, Ipad, Mac, and services. Apple has $194 billion in cash and marketable securities. Net cash was $72 billion, after deducting debt.
Despite all this, Apple stock declined to 142.60 after hours. Here there might be two main reasons for such declines (not only for Apple but most of the companies since the beginning of the earnings season):
- Apple decided not to publish earnings guidance.
- The market is looking for something new to be excited about.
However, the current decline is considered as another round of profit-taking after the board declared a cash dividend of $0.22/share. Therefore, I would consider the current decline as a price discount and would consider buying Apple shares in the medium term starting at $140 all the way down to $135.

Hold onto your hats, folks! The Japanese yen took a nosedive after the Bank of Japan (BOJ) left its ultra-loose policy settings unchanged, including its closely watched yield curve control (YCC) policy. But wait, there's more! The BOJ also removed its forward guidance, which had previously pledged to keep interest rates at current or lower levels. So, what's the scoop? Market expectations had been subdued going into the meeting, but some were still hoping for tweaks to the forward guidance to prepare for an eventual exit from the bank's massive stimulus
