The first quarter earnings season has gotten underway, though it will take a few more weeks for the reporting cycle to get into high gear. The initial reports from the likes of Oracle (ORCL) and FedEx (FDX) have been disappointing, but it's perhaps premature to extrapolate that to the rest of the reporting season. We have 43 companies reporting quarterly results this week, including 8 S&P 500 members.
As has been the case at the start of recent quarterly earnings cycles, expectations for the first quarter earnings season remain quite low. [url=http://www.ktbruce.co.uk/barbourjackets.php]barbour[/url] Total earnings for companies in the S&P 500 are expected to [url=http://www.osterblade.com]moncler sito ufficiale[/url] be down 2.8% from the same period last year. This would compare to actual earnings growth of 2% in the fourth quarter.
Tough comparisons account for the bulk of the weak growth outlook for the first quarter - the first quarter of 2012 still remains the highest point for quarterly earnings since the start of this earnings cycle in 2009.
Compared to the preceding quarter, the key variance is in the expectations for the Finance and Tech sectors. Total Finance sector earnings are expected to drop 3.2%, after the 10.3% gain the quarter before and many quarters of double-digit earnings growth.
The primary reason for Finance's weakness in Q1 is the unfavorable [url=http://www.ktbruce.co.uk/mulberrysale.php]mulberry outlet[/url] comparison - the first quarter of 2012 was the strongest quarter for the sector since 2009. In absolute dollar terms, the Finance sector's profitability level in the first quarter of 2013 is the second best after the first quarter of 2012. The unfavorable comparison aspect is particularly pronounced for AIG (AIG) and Bank of America (BAC). Excluding these two companies, total Finance sector earnings would be down 0.4% in the quarter.
The 5.1% decline in Tech sector earnings is [url=http://www.ktbruce.co.uk/mulberrysale.php]mulberry sale[/url] relatively broader based, but is still heavily concentrated in Apple (AAPL), Intel (INTC) and Seagate Technology (STX), partly offset by strength at Microsoft (MSFT). But even if we exclude these four companies from the Tech sector's first quarter tally, earnings growth would still be negative at [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]nike air jordan pas cher[/url] -2.3%.
Investors don't seem to be overly concerned [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]jordan pas cher[/url] about lack of earnings growth in the first quarter as they are looking ahead to the resumption of growth later this year. The consensus view is that earnings growth in the first half of 2013 will be roughly equivalent to the growth pace in the second half of 2012 - of about 1%. But they are looking for double-digit earnings growth in the back half of 2013 [url=http://etmy.net/viewthread.php?tid=28231&extra=]woolrich outlet How To Hire A Great House Painter - written by Helen Mc Williams[/url] and full-year 2014. And as long as that outlook remains intact, they will remain content with a weak growth pace in the first quarter.
But it will likely get harder to stick to that outlook if companies can't provide reassuring guidance for [url=http://www.fibmilano.it]woolrich[/url] the rest of this year. We haven't seen much positive guidance over the last two quarters, but will companies to do a bit better this time around if current expectations for the remainder of the year have to hold up.

There is nothing major on the economic calendar.
The Apollo Group (APOL) and JA Solar (JASO) are the only notable earnings releases this morning, both before the open.
Zacks ESP, our proprietary leading indicator of earnings surprises, is showing JASO coming out with an earnings beat.
Tuesday - 3/26
We have a busy day on the economic calendar, with February's Durable Goods Orders, January's Case-Shiller Home Price Index, and February's New Home Sales reports coming out in the morning. Also coming out today is the Conference Board's March Consumer Confidence, which is expected to decline from February's 69.6 level.
The 'headline' Durable Goods Orders [url=http://www.ktbruce.co.uk/barbourjackets.php]barbour jackets[/url] are expected to be up +4.6% after the 4.9% decline in January. New Home Sales are expected to pullback from January's 437K seasonally adjusted annualized rate.
The Children's Place (PLCE) is the only notable earnings report in the morning, while SAIC (SAI), the defense/intelligence contractor, reports after the close.

In addition to weekly Jobless Claims, we will get the March Chicago PMI and the third read on Q4 GDP.
The Jobless Claims data has been moving the favorable direction lately, with the 4-week average now at its lowest level since the recovery got underway. It will be interesting to see if this positive trend gets [url=http://www.thehygienerevolution.com/hollister.php]hollister france[/url] further confirmation from the claims data this morning.
The Q4 GDP is expected to be revised higher from 0.1% to 0.6%, while the Chicago PMI is expected to remain comparable to February's 56.5 level.
