US gloom as 予測(する)s are 削除するd

?

OVER-CONFIDENT 利益(をあげる)s 予測(する)s are casting a 影をつくる/尾行する over 塀で囲む Street's autumn 決起大会/結集させる. Since October's lows, US 株式市場s have 決起大会/結集させるd. The 基準 & Poor's 500 索引 is up about 20%, while the tech-激しい Nasdaq has 殺到するd 30%.

But strategists say fourth-4半期/4分の1 収入s 警告s look 始める,決める to 実験(する) the market's mettle. Already 1,254 US companies have 供給するd pre-解放(する) 指導/手引 on their fourth quar ter and 2003 利益(をあげる)s, and nearly twice as many companies have 警告するd that they won't 会合,会う 利益(をあげる) goals as 推定する/予想する to (警官の)巡回区域,受持ち区域 The Street's 的s.

To 避ける looking foolish, 分析家s are 速く downgrading 期待s for many 部門s, 特に the troubled hi-tech 産業. This week, market leader Oracle 報告(する)/憶測s its 会計の second-4半期/4分の1 収入s - the first of the IT heavyweights - -and 長,指導者 (n)役員/(a)執行力のある Larry Ellison should 申し込む/申し出 a typically colourful 報告(する)/憶測 on the 明言する/公表する of the 産業. It won't be pretty, 分析家s said.

'The 予測(する)s have room to come 負かす/撃墜する,' said Joe Kalinowski, 長,指導者 投資 officer for Ehrenkranz King Nussbaum, an institutional 研究 会社/堅い.

The third-4半期/4分の1 収入s season now ending brought 利益(をあげる) growth of 6.9% year-on-year better than the 1% 伸び(る) in the second 4半期/4分の1 'but nothing to get excited about', says First Call 分析家 Joe Cooper. Since then, 分析家s have been trimming their fourth-4半期/4分の1 発射/推定s.

In October, the start of the final 4半期/4分の1, 分析家s 推定する/予想するd 20% 利益(をあげる) growth. That has dropped to 15% and will move lower still between now and the second week of January, when the season of 収入s 報告(する)/憶測s 公式に begins.

This is 特に true in the hi-tech 部門, which underwent a 株-price 復活 during the autumn 決起大会/結集させる even though 分析家s stopped 予報するing a 強健な 回復. 見積(る)s for the fourth 4半期/4分の1 have been 削除するd by more than half. A 回復する of 15% in 利益(をあげる)s in the troubled 部門 is now 推定する/予想するd - much いっそう少なく than the 40% 初めは 予報するd.

Even the good news isn't as good as it looks on the surface. The 推定する/予想するd 15% 伸び(る) in 利益(をあげる)s for the 集団の/共同の S&P 500 companies is ひどく skewed by a sharp turnaround in just three 部門s - energy, transportation and basic 構成要素s - all coming off terrible lows.

For example, America's major 乗客 航空機によるs are 推定する/予想するd to 削減(する) losses in half but not one of them will 生成する actual 利益(をあげる)s. 航空機によるs are only one 推論する/理由 投資家s will b e delighted to see the 支援する of 2002. 法人組織の/企業の 利益(をあげる)s for the year will probably show a rise of a mere 2% from 2001 - いっそう少なく than a 4半期/4分の1 of what was once 推定する/予想するd. Next year may be いっそう少なく disappointing, in part because 利益(をあげる)s will 改善する but also because 分析家s are 削除するing 見積(る)s for 2003, which lowers 期待s.
