In the current US reporting season for 4Q 2023, 75% of the companies in the S&P 500 have published positive earnings surprises. The energy, technology and industrial sectors had the highest proportion of positive earnings surprises. US earnings growth should total +2.9% (y/y) in the 4Q. Earnings growth rates of +4% (y/y) and +9.1% (y/y) are forecast for 1Q and 2Q respectively. The S&P 500 recently reached a new all-time high of over 5,000 points on the back of the companies' good results and prospects. The 4Q reporting season is going worse in Europe than in the USA. Only 53% of companies were able to report profits that exceeded expectations. Profits of European companies should fall by a total of -5.5% year-on-year in the 4Q. For 1Q 2024, a decline in profits of -8.4% is expected. Profits will only grow slightly again from 2Q onwards (2Q 2024e: +2.2%).
