Compare this to one year ago, when S&P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession. Cyclical Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors are forecast to lead the index in EPS growth.\n\nIn 2Q 2020, Brent crude traded at an average of $33/bbl and Energy stocks posted an aggregate net loss. Oil prices averaged $69/bblin 2Q and Energy firms are expected to return to profitability.\nLike last quarter, Financials are expected to be the primary driver of S&P 500 EPS growth. In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.\nAnother notable point:while consensus expects S&P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.\n\nThe greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.\nIn his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:\n\nHow will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?\nHow will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?\nHow does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook? Rates have plunged and high “quality” themes are outperforming.\n\nDigging a little deeper\n\n1. How will companies preserve margins amid input cost pressures?S&P 500 margins notched a record high of 11.9% in  1Q 2021, though investors remain focused on the forward margin outlook given rising input costs.Global shipping woes, raw material inflation as well as acute shortages in both labor and semiconductors have combined to increase costs for companies across the by raising prices and passing higher input costs to their customers.During Q1 calls, many companies discussed price increases and this trend will likely continue during 2Q earnings. Alternatively, with SG&A as a share of sales elevated versus history, companies can also preserve margins through cost cutting. As an example, General Mills announced last week that it faces some of the highest costs in a decade and will implement a mix of both cost cuts and price increases.\n2. Investors have started to reward companies with attractive margin profiles.According to Goldman, profit margins are the second most important driver of company valuations today, behind only equity duration. The bank's sector-neutral factor of stocks with the highest vs. lowest profit margins has also started to outperform.Other “quality” factors such as strong vs. weak balance sheets and high vs. low returns on capital have also inflected higher since early June.\n\n\n\n3. How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?Both aggregate and median S&P 500 cash / assets ratios have rebounded and now stand at record levels, driven in part by record high corporate bond and follow-on equity issuance during the last 18 months. And while leverage remains elevated versus history, it has been falling as corporate profits have started to improve. Info Tech and Consumer Discretionary hold the highest cash / asset ratios of any sectors and account for 43% of total S&P 500 ex-Financials cash.\n\nFor what it's worth, Goldman expects capex will represent the largest share of S&P 500 cash use in 2021, but forecasts the fastest year/year growth will be in cash M&A and share buybacks. After a 10% decline in cash spending in 2020, the bank forecasts that high cash balances, anemic yields as well as strong economic and earnings growth will combine to drive 19% growth in cash spending in 2021 ($2.8 trillion) and 6% in 2022 ($3 trillion). Investing for growth (capex, R&D, and cash M&A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels\nIn terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.\nThe median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[{"id":142291652,"gmtCreate":1626150727476,"gmtModify":1633929606111,"author":{"id":"3579491276699992","authorId":"3579491276699992","name":"Jlenglui","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dbbf978ba7471629b0f6a72b1497fce4","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"wearingBadges":[],"authorIdStr":"3579491276699992","idStr":"3579491276699992"},"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/142291652","repostId":1129204116,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129204116","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626053358,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1129204116?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-12 09:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Goldman Has Three Questions For Companies During Q2 Earnings Season<blockquote>高盛在第二季度财报季向企业提出三个问题</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129204116","media":"zerohedge","summary":"2Q earnings season kicks off next week when the big banks kick off reporting as usual, and consensus","content":"2Q earnings season kicks off next week when the big banks kick off reporting as usual, and consensus expects 2Q EPS growth of 61% year/year, driven by a combination of base effect, 22% sales growth and 256 bps of net margin expansion to 11.1% even though the median stock is forecast to grow EPS by a more modest 24%.

Investing for growth (capex, R&amp;D, and cash M&amp;A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels<blockquote><ul><li>3.随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？标普500现金/资产比率总额和中位数均已反弹，目前处于创纪录水平，部分原因是过去18个月创纪录的公司债券和后续股票发行。尽管与历史相比，杠杆率仍然很高，但随着企业利润开始改善，杠杆率一直在下降。信息技术和非必需消费品的现金/资产比率是所有行业中最高的，占标普500（不含金融）现金总额的43%。</li></ul>无论如何，高盛预计资本支出将在2021年占标普500现金使用的最大份额，但预测同比增长最快的将是现金并购和股票回购。在2020年现金支出下降10%后，该行预测，高现金余额、低迷的收益率以及强劲的经济和盈利增长将共同推动2021年现金支出增长19%（2.8万亿美元）和6%2022年（3万亿美元）。2021年，增长投资（资本支出、研发和现金并购）应占现金总支出的55%。高现金余额、创纪录的回购授权以及CCAR后金融界的过剩资本也应该会推动2021年回购反弹35%。事实上，该银行回购部门的数据显示，美国年初至今，企业已授权回购6270亿美元，是有记录以来第二快的回购速度（仅落后于2018年税改援助水平），比2020年水平高出155%</blockquote> In terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.<blockquote>在首选交易方面，Kostin重点介绍了净利润率高于平均水平、2020年实现利润率增长50+bp、预计未来两年每年利润率增长50+bp的股票。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fd5a1c4bf80144b4c161f6e0ef5627ff\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"899\">The median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&amp;P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).<blockquote>该股2021年净利润率中位数为26%（标普500中位数为13%），预计到2022年利润率将增长306个基点（中位数为156个基点）。</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Compare this to one year ago, when S&amp;P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession. Cyclical Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors are forecast to lead the index in EPS growth.<blockquote>第二季度财报季将于下周拉开帷幕，届时各大银行将照常发布财报，市场普遍预计第二季度每股收益将同比增长61%，这得益于基数效应、22%的销售增长和256个基点的净利润扩张至11.1%，尽管预计股票中位数每股收益将增长24%。相比之下，一年前，由于疫情引发严重衰退，标普500每股收益下降了32%。周期性工业、非必需消费品和材料行业预计将引领该指数的每股收益增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d96a80eab68f78b39d83abd789745e\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"336\"><blockquote></blockquote> In 2Q 2020, Brent crude traded at an average of $33/bbl and Energy stocks posted an aggregate net loss.

In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.<blockquote>与上季度一样，金融股预计将成为标普500每股收益增长的主要驱动力。第一季度，金融股占每股收益总额9美元中的3美元，超出了市场普遍预期。预计第二季度金融股每股收益将增长116%，占标普500每股收益增长的25%。大多数银行分析师预计，在调整准备金释放后，业绩将基本符合共识。继2020年和2021年第一季度的强劲增长之后，资本市场活动已经正常化。然而，大量准备金释放将连续第三季度提振每股收益，并可能在年底前推动银行每股收益增长高达18%。尽管由于发布是非经常性的，投资者不太可能直接奖励这些业绩，但分析师预计，市场将为盈利顺风和最近的CCAR结果可能带来的资本回报买单。</blockquote> Another notable point:while consensus expects S&amp;P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.<blockquote>另一点值得注意：虽然市场普遍预计标普500每股收益将增长61%，但预计该股的盈利中位数仅增长24%。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06b7ce6f61cb168c376424758fc9c5f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"326\"><blockquote></blockquote> The greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&amp;P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&amp;P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.<blockquote>总收益的更大反弹很大程度上是基数效应的函数，或者说2020年收益的更大幅度下降；2020年第二季度，标普500股票的每股收益中位数仅同比下降12%，而总收益下降了32%。该指数中最大的五只股票（FB、AMZN、AAPL、MSFT、GOOGL）占市值的22%，占标普500 2021年第二季度每股收益的14%。尽管去年第二季度经济严重萎缩，但这些公司的每股收益实际上平均增长了38%，预计2021年第二季度的盈利平均增长52%。</blockquote> In his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&amp;P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:<blockquote>高盛首席股票策略师David Kostin在第二季度财报季的预览中——世卫组织预计标准普尔指数今年收盘价为4,300点，较周五创纪录的收盘价下跌-0.5%-重点关注本财报季向管理层提出的三个问题：</blockquote> <ol> <li>How will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?</li> <li>How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?</li> <li>How does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook?

Investing for growth (capex, R&D, and cash M&A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels\nIn terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.\nThe median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SPY":0.9,".DJI":0.9,".SPX":0.9,".IXIC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":5285075,"gmtCreate":1626880714060,"gmtModify":1631889430695,"authorId":3579491276699992,"author":{"id":3579491276699992,"idStr":"3579491276699992","authorId":3579491276699992,"name":"Jlenglui","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dbbf978ba7471629b0f6a72b1497fce4","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":142291652,"type":1,"supId":5214353,"prevId":0,"content":"Ok","text":"Ok","html":"Ok"},{"id":5253397,"gmtCreate":1626589111665,"gmtModify":1631889430683,"authorId":3579491276699992,"author":{"id":3579491276699992,"idStr":"3579491276699992","authorId":3579491276699992,"name":"Jlenglui","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dbbf978ba7471629b0f6a72b1497fce4","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":3579491276699992,"repliedAuthor":{"id":3579491276699992,"idStr":"3579491276699992","authorId":3579491276699992,"name":"Jlenglui","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dbbf978ba7471629b0f6a72b1497fce4","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"objectId":142291652,"type":1,"supId":5214353,"prevId":5253390,"content":"Hi","text":"Hi","html":"Hi"},{"id":5253390,"gmtCreate":1626589061739,"gmtModify":1631889430673,"authorId":3579491276699992,"author":{"id":3579491276699992,"idStr":"3579491276699992","authorId":3579491276699992,"name":"Jlenglui","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dbbf978ba7471629b0f6a72b1497fce4","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":142291652,"type":1,"supId":5214353,"prevId":0,"content":"Hi","text":"Hi","html":"Hi"},{"id":5214353,"gmtCreate":1626236300093,"gmtModify":1631889430661,"authorId":3568112587764186,"author":{"id":3568112587764186,"idStr":"3568112587764186","authorId":3568112587764186,"name":"Pjun","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8cfe0a02203e702b7aae055eaa9823be","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":142291652,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"cool","text":"cool","html":"cool"}],"langContent":"EN"},{"id":146126538,"gmtCreate":1626060550824,"gmtModify":1633930521666,"author":{"id":"4087201413287610","authorId":"4087201413287610","name":"Hodler","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a35446a69bdf87c5bb66fe1e2fdaf182","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"wearingBadges":[],"authorIdStr":"4087201413287610","idStr":"4087201413287610"},"htmlText":"Please like","listText":"Please like","text":"Please like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/146126538","repostId":1129204116,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129204116","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626053358,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1129204116?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-12 09:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Goldman Has Three Questions For Companies During Q2 Earnings Season<blockquote>高盛在第二季度财报季向企业提出三个问题</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129204116","media":"zerohedge","summary":"2Q earnings season kicks off next week when the big banks kick off reporting as usual, and consensus","content":"2Q earnings season kicks off next week when the big banks kick off reporting as usual, and consensus expects 2Q EPS growth of 61% year/year, driven by a combination of base effect, 22% sales growth and 256 bps of net margin expansion to 11.1% even though the median stock is forecast to grow EPS by a more modest 24%. Compare this to one year ago, when S&amp;P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession.

In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.<blockquote>与上季度一样，金融股预计将成为标普500每股收益增长的主要驱动力。第一季度，金融股占每股收益总额9美元中的3美元，超出了市场普遍预期。预计第二季度金融股每股收益将增长116%，占标普500每股收益增长的25%。大多数银行分析师预计，在调整准备金释放后，业绩将基本符合共识。继2020年和2021年第一季度的强劲增长之后，资本市场活动已经正常化。然而，大量准备金释放将连续第三季度提振每股收益，并可能在年底前推动银行每股收益增长高达18%。尽管由于发布是非经常性的，投资者不太可能直接奖励这些业绩，但分析师预计，市场将为盈利顺风和最近的CCAR结果可能带来的资本回报买单。</blockquote> Another notable point:while consensus expects S&amp;P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.<blockquote>另一点值得注意：虽然市场普遍预计标普500每股收益将增长61%，但预计该股的盈利中位数仅增长24%。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06b7ce6f61cb168c376424758fc9c5f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"326\"><blockquote></blockquote> The greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&amp;P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&amp;P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.<blockquote>总收益的更大反弹很大程度上是基数效应的函数，或者说2020年收益的更大幅度下降；2020年第二季度，标普500股票的每股收益中位数仅同比下降12%，而总收益下降了32%。该指数中最大的五只股票（FB、AMZN、AAPL、MSFT、GOOGL）占市值的22%，占标普500 2021年第二季度每股收益的14%。尽管去年第二季度经济严重萎缩，但这些公司的每股收益实际上平均增长了38%，预计2021年第二季度的盈利平均增长52%。</blockquote> In his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&amp;P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:<blockquote>高盛首席股票策略师David Kostin在第二季度财报季的预览中——世卫组织预计标准普尔指数今年收盘价为4,300点，较周五创纪录的收盘价下跌-0.5%-重点关注本财报季向管理层提出的三个问题：</blockquote> <ol> <li>How will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?</li> <li>How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?</li> <li>How does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook? Rates have plunged and high “quality” themes are outperforming.</li> </ol> Digging a little deeper<blockquote><ol><li>在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？</li><li>随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？</li><li>持续的政策不确定性如何影响商业前景？利率暴跌，高“质量”主题表现出色。</li></ol>再深入一点</blockquote> <ul> <li>1. How will companies preserve margins amid input cost pressures?S&amp;P 500 margins notched a record high of 11.9% in&nbsp; 1Q 2021, though investors remain focused on the forward margin outlook given rising input costs.Global shipping woes, raw material inflation as well as acute shortages in both labor and semiconductors have combined to increase costs for companies across the by raising prices and passing higher input costs to their customers.During Q1 calls, many companies discussed price increases and this trend will likely continue during 2Q earnings. Alternatively, with SG&amp;A as a share of sales elevated versus history, companies can also preserve margins through cost cutting. As an example, General Mills announced last week that it faces some of the highest costs in a decade and will implement a mix of both cost cuts and price increases.</li> <li>2. Investors have started to reward companies with attractive margin profiles.According to Goldman, profit margins are the second most important driver of company valuations today, behind only equity duration. The bank's sector-neutral factor of stocks with the highest vs. lowest profit margins has also started to outperform.Other “quality” factors such as strong vs. weak balance sheets and high vs. low returns on capital have also inflected higher since early June.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c48adec9ce9ac7f02c3a669e37e358e4\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"350\"><blockquote><ul><li>1.在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？标普500利润率在2021年第一季度创下11.9%的历史新高，但鉴于投入成本上升，投资者仍然关注远期利润率前景。全球航运困境、原材料通胀以及劳动力和半导体的严重短缺，通过提高价格并将更高的投入成本转嫁给客户，共同增加了全球企业的成本。在第一季度评级期间，许多公司讨论了涨价问题，这种趋势可能会在第二季度财报中持续下去。或者，随着SG&amp;A占销售额的比例较历史有所上升，公司还可以通过削减成本来保持利润。例如，通用磨坊上周宣布，它面临着十年来最高的成本，并将实施成本削减和价格上涨的组合。</li><li>2.投资者已经开始奖励具有有吸引力的保证金状况的公司。高盛表示，利润率是当今公司估值的第二重要驱动因素，仅次于股权久期。该银行利润率最高与最低的股票的行业中性因素也开始跑赢大盘。自6月初以来，其他“质量”因素，如资产负债表强劲与疲软以及资本回报率高与低，也有所走高。</li></ul></blockquote> <ul> <li>3. How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?Both aggregate and median S&amp;P 500 cash / assets ratios have rebounded and now stand at record levels, driven in part by record high corporate bond and follow-on equity issuance during the last 18 months. And while leverage remains elevated versus history, it has been falling as corporate profits have started to improve.

Investing for growth (capex, R&amp;D, and cash M&amp;A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels<blockquote><ul><li>3.随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？标普500现金/资产比率总额和中位数均已反弹，目前处于创纪录水平，部分原因是过去18个月创纪录的公司债券和后续股票发行。尽管与历史相比，杠杆率仍然很高，但随着企业利润开始改善，杠杆率一直在下降。信息技术和非必需消费品的现金/资产比率是所有行业中最高的，占标普500（不含金融）现金总额的43%。</li></ul>无论如何，高盛预计资本支出将在2021年占标普500现金使用的最大份额，但预测同比增长最快的将是现金并购和股票回购。在2020年现金支出下降10%后，该行预测，高现金余额、低迷的收益率以及强劲的经济和盈利增长将共同推动2021年现金支出增长19%（2.8万亿美元）和6%2022年（3万亿美元）。2021年，增长投资（资本支出、研发和现金并购）应占现金总支出的55%。高现金余额、创纪录的回购授权以及CCAR后金融界的过剩资本也应该会推动2021年回购反弹35%。事实上，该银行回购部门的数据显示，美国年初至今，企业已授权回购6270亿美元，是有记录以来第二快的回购速度（仅落后于2018年税改援助水平），比2020年水平高出155%</blockquote> In terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.<blockquote>在首选交易方面，Kostin重点介绍了净利润率高于平均水平、2020年实现利润率增长50+bp、预计未来两年每年利润率增长50+bp的股票。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fd5a1c4bf80144b4c161f6e0ef5627ff\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"899\">The median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&amp;P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).<blockquote>该股2021年净利润率中位数为26%（标普500中位数为13%），预计到2022年利润率将增长306个基点（中位数为156个基点）。</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Compare this to one year ago, when S&amp;P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession. Cyclical Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors are forecast to lead the index in EPS growth.<blockquote>第二季度财报季将于下周拉开帷幕，届时各大银行将照常发布财报，市场普遍预计第二季度每股收益将同比增长61%，这得益于基数效应、22%的销售增长和256个基点的净利润扩张至11.1%，尽管预计股票中位数每股收益将增长24%。相比之下，一年前，由于疫情引发严重衰退，标普500每股收益下降了32%。周期性工业、非必需消费品和材料行业预计将引领该指数的每股收益增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d96a80eab68f78b39d83abd789745e\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"336\"><blockquote></blockquote> In 2Q 2020, Brent crude traded at an average of $33/bbl and Energy stocks posted an aggregate net loss.

In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.<blockquote>与上季度一样，金融股预计将成为标普500每股收益增长的主要驱动力。第一季度，金融股占每股收益总额9美元中的3美元，超出了市场普遍预期。预计第二季度金融股每股收益将增长116%，占标普500每股收益增长的25%。大多数银行分析师预计，在调整准备金释放后，业绩将基本符合共识。继2020年和2021年第一季度的强劲增长之后，资本市场活动已经正常化。然而，大量准备金释放将连续第三季度提振每股收益，并可能在年底前推动银行每股收益增长高达18%。尽管由于发布是非经常性的，投资者不太可能直接奖励这些业绩，但分析师预计，市场将为盈利顺风和最近的CCAR结果可能带来的资本回报买单。</blockquote> Another notable point:while consensus expects S&amp;P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.<blockquote>另一点值得注意：虽然市场普遍预计标普500每股收益将增长61%，但预计该股的盈利中位数仅增长24%。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06b7ce6f61cb168c376424758fc9c5f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"326\"><blockquote></blockquote> The greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&amp;P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&amp;P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.<blockquote>总收益的更大反弹很大程度上是基数效应的函数，或者说2020年收益的更大幅度下降；2020年第二季度，标普500股票的每股收益中位数仅同比下降12%，而总收益下降了32%。该指数中最大的五只股票（FB、AMZN、AAPL、MSFT、GOOGL）占市值的22%，占标普500 2021年第二季度每股收益的14%。尽管去年第二季度经济严重萎缩，但这些公司的每股收益实际上平均增长了38%，预计2021年第二季度的盈利平均增长52%。</blockquote> In his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&amp;P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:<blockquote>高盛首席股票策略师David Kostin在第二季度财报季的预览中——世卫组织预计标准普尔指数今年收盘价为4,300点，较周五创纪录的收盘价下跌-0.5%-重点关注本财报季向管理层提出的三个问题：</blockquote> <ol> <li>How will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?</li> <li>How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?</li> <li>How does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook?

Investing for growth (capex, R&D, and cash M&A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels\nIn terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.\nThe median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SPY":0.9,".DJI":0.9,".SPX":0.9,".IXIC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":6810633,"gmtCreate":1638419883245,"gmtModify":1638419883276,"authorId":3581999424680567,"author":{"id":3581999424680567,"idStr":"3581999424680567","authorId":3581999424680567,"name":"JoanY","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":146197121,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Can","text":"Can","html":"Can"},{"id":6571822,"gmtCreate":1636870242411,"gmtModify":1636870242448,"authorId":3581999424680567,"author":{"id":3581999424680567,"idStr":"3581999424680567","authorId":3581999424680567,"name":"JoanY","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":146197121,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Ok","text":"Ok","html":"Ok"},{"id":6520217,"gmtCreate":1636509808233,"gmtModify":1636509808263,"authorId":3581999424680567,"author":{"id":3581999424680567,"idStr":"3581999424680567","authorId":3581999424680567,"name":"JoanY","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":146197121,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Yes","text":"Yes","html":"Yes"},{"id":6360920,"gmtCreate":1635433937846,"gmtModify":1635433937950,"authorId":3581999424680567,"author":{"id":3581999424680567,"idStr":"3581999424680567","authorId":3581999424680567,"name":"JoanY","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":146197121,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"是","text":"是","html":"是"},{"id":6300694,"gmtCreate":1634992211020,"gmtModify":1634992211067,"authorId":3581999424680567,"author":{"id":3581999424680567,"idStr":"3581999424680567","authorId":3581999424680567,"name":"JoanY","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[],"wearingBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":146197121,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Oo","text":"Oo","html":"Oo"}],"langContent":"EN"},{"id":146100726,"gmtCreate":1626056526365,"gmtModify":1631893338946,"author":{"id":"4088486546195490","authorId":"4088486546195490","name":"calvinchia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"wearingBadges":[],"authorIdStr":"4088486546195490","idStr":"4088486546195490"},"htmlText":"nice","listText":"nice","text":"nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/146100726","repostId":1129204116,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129204116","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626053358,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1129204116?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-12 09:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Goldman Has Three Questions For Companies During Q2 Earnings Season<blockquote>高盛在第二季度财报季向企业提出三个问题</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129204116","media":"zerohedge","summary":"2Q earnings season kicks off next week when the big banks kick off reporting as usual, and consensus","content":"2Q earnings season kicks off next week when the big banks kick off reporting as usual, and consensus expects 2Q EPS growth of 61% year/year, driven by a combination of base effect, 22% sales growth and 256 bps of net margin expansion to 11.1% even though the median stock is forecast to grow EPS by a more modest 24%. Compare this to one year ago, when S&amp;P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession. Cyclical Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors are forecast to lead the index in EPS growth.<blockquote>第二季度财报季将于下周拉开帷幕，届时各大银行将照常发布财报，市场普遍预计第二季度每股收益将同比增长61%，这得益于基数效应、22%的销售增长和256个基点的净利润扩张至11.1%，尽管预计股票中位数每股收益将增长24%。相比之下，一年前，由于疫情引发严重衰退，标普500每股收益下降了32%。周期性工业、非必需消费品和材料行业预计将引领该指数的每股收益增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d96a80eab68f78b39d83abd789745e\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"336\"><blockquote></blockquote> In 2Q 2020, Brent crude traded at an average of $33/bbl and Energy stocks posted an aggregate net loss.

In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.<blockquote>与上季度一样，金融股预计将成为标普500每股收益增长的主要驱动力。第一季度，金融股占每股收益总额9美元中的3美元，超出了市场普遍预期。预计第二季度金融股每股收益将增长116%，占标普500每股收益增长的25%。大多数银行分析师预计，在调整准备金释放后，业绩将基本符合共识。继2020年和2021年第一季度的强劲增长之后，资本市场活动已经正常化。然而，大量准备金释放将连续第三季度提振每股收益，并可能在年底前推动银行每股收益增长高达18%。尽管由于发布是非经常性的，投资者不太可能直接奖励这些业绩，但分析师预计，市场将为盈利顺风和最近的CCAR结果可能带来的资本回报买单。</blockquote> Another notable point:while consensus expects S&amp;P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.<blockquote>另一点值得注意：虽然市场普遍预计标普500每股收益将增长61%，但预计该股的盈利中位数仅增长24%。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06b7ce6f61cb168c376424758fc9c5f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"326\"><blockquote></blockquote> The greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&amp;P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&amp;P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.<blockquote>总收益的更大反弹很大程度上是基数效应的函数，或者说2020年收益的更大幅度下降；2020年第二季度，标普500股票的每股收益中位数仅同比下降12%，而总收益下降了32%。该指数中最大的五只股票（FB、AMZN、AAPL、MSFT、GOOGL）占市值的22%，占标普500 2021年第二季度每股收益的14%。尽管去年第二季度经济严重萎缩，但这些公司的每股收益实际上平均增长了38%，预计2021年第二季度的盈利平均增长52%。</blockquote> In his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&amp;P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:<blockquote>高盛首席股票策略师David Kostin在第二季度财报季的预览中——世卫组织预计标准普尔指数今年收盘价为4,300点，较周五创纪录的收盘价下跌-0.5%-重点关注本财报季向管理层提出的三个问题：</blockquote> <ol> <li>How will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?</li> <li>How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?</li> <li>How does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook? Rates have plunged and high “quality” themes are outperforming.</li> </ol> Digging a little deeper<blockquote><ol><li>在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？</li><li>随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？</li><li>持续的政策不确定性如何影响商业前景？利率暴跌，高“质量”主题表现出色。</li></ol>再深入一点</blockquote> <ul> <li>1. How will companies preserve margins amid input cost pressures?S&amp;P 500 margins notched a record high of 11.9% in&nbsp; 1Q 2021, though investors remain focused on the forward margin outlook given rising input costs.Global shipping woes, raw material inflation as well as acute shortages in both labor and semiconductors have combined to increase costs for companies across the by raising prices and passing higher input costs to their customers.During Q1 calls, many companies discussed price increases and this trend will likely continue during 2Q earnings. Alternatively, with SG&amp;A as a share of sales elevated versus history, companies can also preserve margins through cost cutting. As an example, General Mills announced last week that it faces some of the highest costs in a decade and will implement a mix of both cost cuts and price increases.</li> <li>2. Investors have started to reward companies with attractive margin profiles.According to Goldman, profit margins are the second most important driver of company valuations today, behind only equity duration. The bank's sector-neutral factor of stocks with the highest vs. lowest profit margins has also started to outperform.Other “quality” factors such as strong vs. weak balance sheets and high vs. low returns on capital have also inflected higher since early June.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c48adec9ce9ac7f02c3a669e37e358e4\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"350\"><blockquote><ul><li>1.在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？标普500利润率在2021年第一季度创下11.9%的历史新高，但鉴于投入成本上升，投资者仍然关注远期利润率前景。全球航运困境、原材料通胀以及劳动力和半导体的严重短缺，通过提高价格并将更高的投入成本转嫁给客户，共同增加了全球企业的成本。在第一季度评级期间，许多公司讨论了涨价问题，这种趋势可能会在第二季度财报中持续下去。或者，随着SG&amp;A占销售额的比例较历史有所上升，公司还可以通过削减成本来保持利润。例如，通用磨坊上周宣布，它面临着十年来最高的成本，并将实施成本削减和价格上涨的组合。</li><li>2.投资者已经开始奖励具有有吸引力的保证金状况的公司。高盛表示，利润率是当今公司估值的第二重要驱动因素，仅次于股权久期。该银行利润率最高与最低的股票的行业中性因素也开始跑赢大盘。自6月初以来，其他“质量”因素，如资产负债表强劲与疲软以及资本回报率高与低，也有所走高。</li></ul></blockquote> <ul> <li>3. How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?Both aggregate and median S&amp;P 500 cash / assets ratios have rebounded and now stand at record levels, driven in part by record high corporate bond and follow-on equity issuance during the last 18 months. And while leverage remains elevated versus history, it has been falling as corporate profits have started to improve.

Investing for growth (capex, R&amp;D, and cash M&amp;A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels<blockquote><ul><li>3.随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？标普500现金/资产比率总额和中位数均已反弹，目前处于创纪录水平，部分原因是过去18个月创纪录的公司债券和后续股票发行。尽管与历史相比，杠杆率仍然很高，但随着企业利润开始改善，杠杆率一直在下降。信息技术和非必需消费品的现金/资产比率是所有行业中最高的，占标普500（不含金融）现金总额的43%。</li></ul>无论如何，高盛预计资本支出将在2021年占标普500现金使用的最大份额，但预测同比增长最快的将是现金并购和股票回购。在2020年现金支出下降10%后，该行预测，高现金余额、低迷的收益率以及强劲的经济和盈利增长将共同推动2021年现金支出增长19%（2.8万亿美元）和6%2022年（3万亿美元）。2021年，增长投资（资本支出、研发和现金并购）应占现金总支出的55%。高现金余额、创纪录的回购授权以及CCAR后金融界的过剩资本也应该会推动2021年回购反弹35%。事实上，该银行回购部门的数据显示，美国年初至今，企业已授权回购6270亿美元，是有记录以来第二快的回购速度（仅落后于2018年税改援助水平），比2020年水平高出155%</blockquote> In terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.<blockquote>在首选交易方面，Kostin重点介绍了净利润率高于平均水平、2020年实现利润率增长50+bp、预计未来两年每年利润率增长50+bp的股票。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fd5a1c4bf80144b4c161f6e0ef5627ff\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"899\">The median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&amp;P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).<blockquote>该股2021年净利润率中位数为26%（标普500中位数为13%），预计到2022年利润率将增长306个基点（中位数为156个基点）。</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Compare this to one year ago, when S&amp;P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession. Cyclical Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors are forecast to lead the index in EPS growth.<blockquote>第二季度财报季将于下周拉开帷幕，届时各大银行将照常发布财报，市场普遍预计第二季度每股收益将同比增长61%，这得益于基数效应、22%的销售增长和256个基点的净利润扩张至11.1%，尽管预计股票中位数每股收益将增长24%。相比之下，一年前，由于疫情引发严重衰退，标普500每股收益下降了32%。周期性工业、非必需消费品和材料行业预计将引领该指数的每股收益增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d96a80eab68f78b39d83abd789745e\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"336\"><blockquote></blockquote> In 2Q 2020, Brent crude traded at an average of $33/bbl and Energy stocks posted an aggregate net loss.

In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.<blockquote>与上季度一样，金融股预计将成为标普500每股收益增长的主要驱动力。第一季度，金融股占每股收益总额9美元中的3美元，超出了市场普遍预期。预计第二季度金融股每股收益将增长116%，占标普500每股收益增长的25%。大多数银行分析师预计，在调整准备金释放后，业绩将基本符合共识。继2020年和2021年第一季度的强劲增长之后，资本市场活动已经正常化。然而，大量准备金释放将连续第三季度提振每股收益，并可能在年底前推动银行每股收益增长高达18%。尽管由于发布是非经常性的，投资者不太可能直接奖励这些业绩，但分析师预计，市场将为盈利顺风和最近的CCAR结果可能带来的资本回报买单。</blockquote> Another notable point:while consensus expects S&amp;P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.<blockquote>另一点值得注意：虽然市场普遍预计标普500每股收益将增长61%，但预计该股的盈利中位数仅增长24%。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06b7ce6f61cb168c376424758fc9c5f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"326\"><blockquote></blockquote> The greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&amp;P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&amp;P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.<blockquote>总收益的更大反弹很大程度上是基数效应的函数，或者说2020年收益的更大幅度下降；2020年第二季度，标普500股票的每股收益中位数仅同比下降12%，而总收益下降了32%。该指数中最大的五只股票（FB、AMZN、AAPL、MSFT、GOOGL）占市值的22%，占标普500 2021年第二季度每股收益的14%。尽管去年第二季度经济严重萎缩，但这些公司的每股收益实际上平均增长了38%，预计2021年第二季度的盈利平均增长52%。</blockquote> In his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&amp;P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:<blockquote>高盛首席股票策略师David Kostin在第二季度财报季的预览中——世卫组织预计标准普尔指数今年收盘价为4,300点，较周五创纪录的收盘价下跌-0.5%-重点关注本财报季向管理层提出的三个问题：</blockquote> <ol> <li>How will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?</li> <li>How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?</li> <li>How does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook?

Compare this to one year ago, when S&amp;P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession. Cyclical Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors are forecast to lead the index in EPS growth.<blockquote>第二季度财报季将于下周拉开帷幕，届时各大银行将照常发布财报，市场普遍预计第二季度每股收益将同比增长61%，这得益于基数效应、22%的销售增长和256个基点的净利润扩张至11.1%，尽管预计股票中位数每股收益将增长24%。相比之下，一年前，由于疫情引发严重衰退，标普500每股收益下降了32%。周期性工业、非必需消费品和材料行业预计将引领该指数的每股收益增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d96a80eab68f78b39d83abd789745e\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"336\"><blockquote></blockquote> In 2Q 2020, Brent crude traded at an average of $33/bbl and Energy stocks posted an aggregate net loss.

In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.<blockquote>与上季度一样，金融股预计将成为标普500每股收益增长的主要驱动力。第一季度，金融股占每股收益总额9美元中的3美元，超出了市场普遍预期。预计第二季度金融股每股收益将增长116%，占标普500每股收益增长的25%。大多数银行分析师预计，在调整准备金释放后，业绩将基本符合共识。继2020年和2021年第一季度的强劲增长之后，资本市场活动已经正常化。然而，大量准备金释放将连续第三季度提振每股收益，并可能在年底前推动银行每股收益增长高达18%。尽管由于发布是非经常性的，投资者不太可能直接奖励这些业绩，但分析师预计，市场将为盈利顺风和最近的CCAR结果可能带来的资本回报买单。</blockquote> Another notable point:while consensus expects S&amp;P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.<blockquote>另一点值得注意：虽然市场普遍预计标普500每股收益将增长61%，但预计该股的盈利中位数仅增长24%。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06b7ce6f61cb168c376424758fc9c5f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"326\"><blockquote></blockquote> The greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&amp;P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&amp;P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.<blockquote>总收益的更大反弹很大程度上是基数效应的函数，或者说2020年收益的更大幅度下降；2020年第二季度，标普500股票的每股收益中位数仅同比下降12%，而总收益下降了32%。该指数中最大的五只股票（FB、AMZN、AAPL、MSFT、GOOGL）占市值的22%，占标普500 2021年第二季度每股收益的14%。尽管去年第二季度经济严重萎缩，但这些公司的每股收益实际上平均增长了38%，预计2021年第二季度的盈利平均增长52%。</blockquote> In his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&amp;P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:<blockquote>高盛首席股票策略师David Kostin在第二季度财报季的预览中——世卫组织预计标准普尔指数今年收盘价为4,300点，较周五创纪录的收盘价下跌-0.5%-重点关注本财报季向管理层提出的三个问题：</blockquote> <ol> <li>How will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?</li> <li>How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?</li> <li>How does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook? Rates have plunged and high “quality” themes are outperforming.</li> </ol> Digging a little deeper<blockquote><ol><li>在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？</li><li>随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？</li><li>持续的政策不确定性如何影响商业前景？利率暴跌，高“质量”主题表现出色。</li></ol>再深入一点</blockquote> <ul> <li>1. How will companies preserve margins amid input cost pressures?S&amp;P 500 margins notched a record high of 11.9% in&nbsp; 1Q 2021, though investors remain focused on the forward margin outlook given rising input costs.Global shipping woes, raw material inflation as well as acute shortages in both labor and semiconductors have combined to increase costs for companies across the by raising prices and passing higher input costs to their customers.During Q1 calls, many companies discussed price increases and this trend will likely continue during 2Q earnings. Alternatively, with SG&amp;A as a share of sales elevated versus history, companies can also preserve margins through cost cutting. As an example, General Mills announced last week that it faces some of the highest costs in a decade and will implement a mix of both cost cuts and price increases.</li> <li>2. Investors have started to reward companies with attractive margin profiles.According to Goldman, profit margins are the second most important driver of company valuations today, behind only equity duration. The bank's sector-neutral factor of stocks with the highest vs. lowest profit margins has also started to outperform.Other “quality” factors such as strong vs. weak balance sheets and high vs. low returns on capital have also inflected higher since early June.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c48adec9ce9ac7f02c3a669e37e358e4\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"350\"><blockquote><ul><li>1.在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？标普500利润率在2021年第一季度创下11.9%的历史新高，但鉴于投入成本上升，投资者仍然关注远期利润率前景。全球航运困境、原材料通胀以及劳动力和半导体的严重短缺，通过提高价格并将更高的投入成本转嫁给客户，共同增加了全球企业的成本。在第一季度评级期间，许多公司讨论了涨价问题，这种趋势可能会在第二季度财报中持续下去。或者，随着SG&amp;A占销售额的比例较历史有所上升，公司还可以通过削减成本来保持利润。例如，通用磨坊上周宣布，它面临着十年来最高的成本，并将实施成本削减和价格上涨的组合。</li><li>2.投资者已经开始奖励具有有吸引力的保证金状况的公司。高盛表示，利润率是当今公司估值的第二重要驱动因素，仅次于股权久期。该银行利润率最高与最低的股票的行业中性因素也开始跑赢大盘。自6月初以来，其他“质量”因素，如资产负债表强劲与疲软以及资本回报率高与低，也有所走高。</li></ul></blockquote> <ul> <li>3. How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?Both aggregate and median S&amp;P 500 cash / assets ratios have rebounded and now stand at record levels, driven in part by record high corporate bond and follow-on equity issuance during the last 18 months. And while leverage remains elevated versus history, it has been falling as corporate profits have started to improve.

Compare this to one year ago, when S&P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession. Cyclical Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors are forecast to lead the index in EPS growth.\n\nIn 2Q 2020, Brent crude traded at an average of $33/bbl and Energy stocks posted an aggregate net loss. Oil prices averaged $69/bblin 2Q and Energy firms are expected to return to profitability.\nLike last quarter, Financials are expected to be the primary driver of S&P 500 EPS growth. In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.\nAnother notable point:while consensus expects S&P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.\n\nThe greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.\nIn his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:\n\nHow will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?\nHow will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?\nHow does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook? Rates have plunged and high “quality” themes are outperforming.\n\nDigging a little deeper\n\n1. How will companies preserve margins amid input cost pressures?S&P 500 margins notched a record high of 11.9% in  1Q 2021, though investors remain focused on the forward margin outlook given rising input costs.Global shipping woes, raw material inflation as well as acute shortages in both labor and semiconductors have combined to increase costs for companies across the by raising prices and passing higher input costs to their customers.During Q1 calls, many companies discussed price increases and this trend will likely continue during 2Q earnings. Alternatively, with SG&A as a share of sales elevated versus history, companies can also preserve margins through cost cutting. As an example, General Mills announced last week that it faces some of the highest costs in a decade and will implement a mix of both cost cuts and price increases.\n2. Investors have started to reward companies with attractive margin profiles.According to Goldman, profit margins are the second most important driver of company valuations today, behind only equity duration. The bank's sector-neutral factor of stocks with the highest vs. lowest profit margins has also started to outperform.Other “quality” factors such as strong vs. weak balance sheets and high vs. low returns on capital have also inflected higher since early June.\n\n\n\n3. How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?Both aggregate and median S&P 500 cash / assets ratios have rebounded and now stand at record levels, driven in part by record high corporate bond and follow-on equity issuance during the last 18 months.

Compare this to one year ago, when S&amp;P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession. Cyclical Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors are forecast to lead the index in EPS growth.<blockquote>第二季度财报季将于下周拉开帷幕，届时各大银行将照常发布财报，市场普遍预计第二季度每股收益将同比增长61%，这得益于基数效应、22%的销售增长和256个基点的净利润扩张至11.1%，尽管预计股票中位数每股收益将增长24%。相比之下，一年前，由于疫情引发严重衰退，标普500每股收益下降了32%。周期性工业、非必需消费品和材料行业预计将引领该指数的每股收益增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d96a80eab68f78b39d83abd789745e\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"336\"><blockquote></blockquote> In 2Q 2020, Brent crude traded at an average of $33/bbl and Energy stocks posted an aggregate net loss. Oil prices averaged $69/bblin 2Q and Energy firms are expected to return to profitability.<blockquote>2020年第二季度，布伦特原油平均交易价格为33美元/桶，能源股出现总净亏损。第二季度油价平均为69美元/桶，能源公司预计将恢复盈利。</blockquote> Like last quarter, Financials are expected to be the primary driver of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth. In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.<blockquote>与上季度一样，金融股预计将成为标普500每股收益增长的主要驱动力。第一季度，金融股占每股收益总额9美元中的3美元，超出了市场普遍预期。预计第二季度金融股每股收益将增长116%，占标普500每股收益增长的25%。大多数银行分析师预计，在调整准备金释放后，业绩将基本符合共识。继2020年和2021年第一季度的强劲增长之后，资本市场活动已经正常化。然而，大量准备金释放将连续第三季度提振每股收益，并可能在年底前推动银行每股收益增长高达18%。尽管由于发布是非经常性的，投资者不太可能直接奖励这些业绩，但分析师预计，市场将为盈利顺风和最近的CCAR结果可能带来的资本回报买单。</blockquote> Another notable point:while consensus expects S&amp;P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.<blockquote>另一点值得注意：虽然市场普遍预计标普500每股收益将增长61%，但预计该股的盈利中位数仅增长24%。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06b7ce6f61cb168c376424758fc9c5f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"326\"><blockquote></blockquote> The greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&amp;P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&amp;P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.<blockquote>总收益的更大反弹很大程度上是基数效应的函数，或者说2020年收益的更大幅度下降；2020年第二季度，标普500股票的每股收益中位数仅同比下降12%，而总收益下降了32%。该指数中最大的五只股票（FB、AMZN、AAPL、MSFT、GOOGL）占市值的22%，占标普500 2021年第二季度每股收益的14%。尽管去年第二季度经济严重萎缩，但这些公司的每股收益实际上平均增长了38%，预计2021年第二季度的盈利平均增长52%。</blockquote> In his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&amp;P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:<blockquote>高盛首席股票策略师David Kostin在第二季度财报季的预览中——世卫组织预计标准普尔指数今年收盘价为4,300点，较周五创纪录的收盘价下跌-0.5%-重点关注本财报季向管理层提出的三个问题：</blockquote> <ol> <li>How will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?</li> <li>How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?</li> <li>How does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook? Rates have plunged and high “quality” themes are outperforming.</li> </ol> Digging a little deeper<blockquote><ol><li>在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？</li><li>随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？</li><li>持续的政策不确定性如何影响商业前景？利率暴跌，高“质量”主题表现出色。</li></ol>再深入一点</blockquote> <ul> <li>1. How will companies preserve margins amid input cost pressures?S&amp;P 500 margins notched a record high of 11.9% in&nbsp; 1Q 2021, though investors remain focused on the forward margin outlook given rising input costs.Global shipping woes, raw material inflation as well as acute shortages in both labor and semiconductors have combined to increase costs for companies across the by raising prices and passing higher input costs to their customers.During Q1 calls, many companies discussed price increases and this trend will likely continue during 2Q earnings. Alternatively, with SG&amp;A as a share of sales elevated versus history, companies can also preserve margins through cost cutting. As an example, General Mills announced last week that it faces some of the highest costs in a decade and will implement a mix of both cost cuts and price increases.</li> <li>2. Investors have started to reward companies with attractive margin profiles.According to Goldman, profit margins are the second most important driver of company valuations today, behind only equity duration. The bank's sector-neutral factor of stocks with the highest vs. lowest profit margins has also started to outperform.Other “quality” factors such as strong vs. weak balance sheets and high vs. low returns on capital have also inflected higher since early June.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c48adec9ce9ac7f02c3a669e37e358e4\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"350\"><blockquote><ul><li>1.在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？标普500利润率在2021年第一季度创下11.9%的历史新高，但鉴于投入成本上升，投资者仍然关注远期利润率前景。全球航运困境、原材料通胀以及劳动力和半导体的严重短缺，通过提高价格并将更高的投入成本转嫁给客户，共同增加了全球企业的成本。在第一季度评级期间，许多公司讨论了涨价问题，这种趋势可能会在第二季度财报中持续下去。或者，随着SG&amp;A占销售额的比例较历史有所上升，公司还可以通过削减成本来保持利润。例如，通用磨坊上周宣布，它面临着十年来最高的成本，并将实施成本削减和价格上涨的组合。</li><li>2.投资者已经开始奖励具有有吸引力的保证金状况的公司。高盛表示，利润率是当今公司估值的第二重要驱动因素，仅次于股权久期。该银行利润率最高与最低的股票的行业中性因素也开始跑赢大盘。自6月初以来，其他“质量”因素，如资产负债表强劲与疲软以及资本回报率高与低，也有所走高。</li></ul></blockquote> <ul> <li>3. How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?Both aggregate and median S&amp;P 500 cash / assets ratios have rebounded and now stand at record levels, driven in part by record high corporate bond and follow-on equity issuance during the last 18 months. And while leverage remains elevated versus history, it has been falling as corporate profits have started to improve. Info Tech and Consumer Discretionary hold the highest cash / asset ratios of any sectors and account for 43% of total S&amp;P 500 ex-Financials cash.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a7c869205feb07f0e0dae0023005dbd0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"350\">For what it's worth, Goldman expects capex will represent the largest share of S&amp;P 500 cash use in 2021, but forecasts the fastest year/year growth will be in cash M&amp;A and share buybacks. After a 10% decline in cash spending in 2020, the bank forecasts that high cash balances, anemic yields as well as strong economic and earnings growth will combine to drive 19% growth in cash spending in 2021 ($2.8 trillion) and 6% in 2022 ($3 trillion). Investing for growth (capex, R&amp;D, and cash M&amp;A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels<blockquote><ul><li>3.随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？标普500现金/资产比率总额和中位数均已反弹，目前处于创纪录水平，部分原因是过去18个月创纪录的公司债券和后续股票发行。尽管与历史相比，杠杆率仍然很高，但随着企业利润开始改善，杠杆率一直在下降。信息技术和非必需消费品的现金/资产比率是所有行业中最高的，占标普500（不含金融）现金总额的43%。</li></ul>无论如何，高盛预计资本支出将在2021年占标普500现金使用的最大份额，但预测同比增长最快的将是现金并购和股票回购。在2020年现金支出下降10%后，该行预测，高现金余额、低迷的收益率以及强劲的经济和盈利增长将共同推动2021年现金支出增长19%（2.8万亿美元）和6%2022年（3万亿美元）。2021年，增长投资（资本支出、研发和现金并购）应占现金总支出的55%。高现金余额、创纪录的回购授权以及CCAR后金融界的过剩资本也应该会推动2021年回购反弹35%。事实上，该银行回购部门的数据显示，美国年初至今，企业已授权回购6270亿美元，是有记录以来第二快的回购速度（仅落后于2018年税改援助水平），比2020年水平高出155%</blockquote> In terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.<blockquote>在首选交易方面，Kostin重点介绍了净利润率高于平均水平、2020年实现利润率增长50+bp、预计未来两年每年利润率增长50+bp的股票。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fd5a1c4bf80144b4c161f6e0ef5627ff\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"899\">The median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&amp;P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).<blockquote>该股2021年净利润率中位数为26%（标普500中位数为13%），预计到2022年利润率将增长306个基点（中位数为156个基点）。</blockquote>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n 来源：<a href=\"https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/goldman-has-three-questions-companies-during-q2-earnings-season\">zerohedge</a>\n为提升您的阅读体验，我们对本页面进行了排版优化\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".DJI":"道琼斯",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index","SPY":"标普500ETF"},"source_url":"https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/goldman-has-three-questions-companies-during-q2-earnings-season","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1129204116","content_text":"2Q earnings season kicks off next week when the big banks kick off reporting as usual, and consensus expects 2Q EPS growth of 61% year/year, driven by a combination of base effect, 22% sales growth and 256 bps of net margin expansion to 11.1% even though the median stock is forecast to grow EPS by a more modest 24%.

However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.<blockquote>与上季度一样，金融股预计将成为标普500每股收益增长的主要驱动力。第一季度，金融股占每股收益总额9美元中的3美元，超出了市场普遍预期。预计第二季度金融股每股收益将增长116%，占标普500每股收益增长的25%。大多数银行分析师预计，在调整准备金释放后，业绩将基本符合共识。继2020年和2021年第一季度的强劲增长之后，资本市场活动已经正常化。然而，大量准备金释放将连续第三季度提振每股收益，并可能在年底前推动银行每股收益增长高达18%。尽管由于发布是非经常性的，投资者不太可能直接奖励这些业绩，但分析师预计，市场将为盈利顺风和最近的CCAR结果可能带来的资本回报买单。</blockquote> Another notable point:while consensus expects S&amp;P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.<blockquote>另一点值得注意：虽然市场普遍预计标普500每股收益将增长61%，但预计该股的盈利中位数仅增长24%。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06b7ce6f61cb168c376424758fc9c5f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"326\"><blockquote></blockquote> The greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&amp;P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&amp;P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.<blockquote>总收益的更大反弹很大程度上是基数效应的函数，或者说2020年收益的更大幅度下降；2020年第二季度，标普500股票的每股收益中位数仅同比下降12%，而总收益下降了32%。该指数中最大的五只股票（FB、AMZN、AAPL、MSFT、GOOGL）占市值的22%，占标普500 2021年第二季度每股收益的14%。尽管去年第二季度经济严重萎缩，但这些公司的每股收益实际上平均增长了38%，预计2021年第二季度的盈利平均增长52%。</blockquote> In his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&amp;P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:<blockquote>高盛首席股票策略师David Kostin在第二季度财报季的预览中——世卫组织预计标准普尔指数今年收盘价为4,300点，较周五创纪录的收盘价下跌-0.5%-重点关注本财报季向管理层提出的三个问题：</blockquote> <ol> <li>How will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?</li> <li>How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?</li> <li>How does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook? Rates have plunged and high “quality” themes are outperforming.</li> </ol> Digging a little deeper<blockquote><ol><li>在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？</li><li>随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？</li><li>持续的政策不确定性如何影响商业前景？利率暴跌，高“质量”主题表现出色。</li></ol>再深入一点</blockquote> <ul> <li>1. How will companies preserve margins amid input cost pressures?S&amp;P 500 margins notched a record high of 11.9% in&nbsp; 1Q 2021, though investors remain focused on the forward margin outlook given rising input costs.Global shipping woes, raw material inflation as well as acute shortages in both labor and semiconductors have combined to increase costs for companies across the by raising prices and passing higher input costs to their customers.During Q1 calls, many companies discussed price increases and this trend will likely continue during 2Q earnings. Alternatively, with SG&amp;A as a share of sales elevated versus history, companies can also preserve margins through cost cutting. As an example, General Mills announced last week that it faces some of the highest costs in a decade and will implement a mix of both cost cuts and price increases.</li> <li>2. Investors have started to reward companies with attractive margin profiles.According to Goldman, profit margins are the second most important driver of company valuations today, behind only equity duration. The bank's sector-neutral factor of stocks with the highest vs. lowest profit margins has also started to outperform.Other “quality” factors such as strong vs. weak balance sheets and high vs. low returns on capital have also inflected higher since early June.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c48adec9ce9ac7f02c3a669e37e358e4\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"350\"><blockquote><ul><li>1.在投入成本压力下，企业将如何保持利润率？标普500利润率在2021年第一季度创下11.9%的历史新高，但鉴于投入成本上升，投资者仍然关注远期利润率前景。全球航运困境、原材料通胀以及劳动力和半导体的严重短缺，通过提高价格并将更高的投入成本转嫁给客户，共同增加了全球企业的成本。在第一季度评级期间，许多公司讨论了涨价问题，这种趋势可能会在第二季度财报中持续下去。或者，随着SG&amp;A占销售额的比例较历史有所上升，公司还可以通过削减成本来保持利润。例如，通用磨坊上周宣布，它面临着十年来最高的成本，并将实施成本削减和价格上涨的组合。</li><li>2.投资者已经开始奖励具有有吸引力的保证金状况的公司。高盛表示，利润率是当今公司估值的第二重要驱动因素，仅次于股权久期。该银行利润率最高与最低的股票的行业中性因素也开始跑赢大盘。自6月初以来，其他“质量”因素，如资产负债表强劲与疲软以及资本回报率高与低，也有所走高。</li></ul></blockquote> <ul> <li>3. How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?Both aggregate and median S&amp;P 500 cash / assets ratios have rebounded and now stand at record levels, driven in part by record high corporate bond and follow-on equity issuance during the last 18 months. And while leverage remains elevated versus history, it has been falling as corporate profits have started to improve. Info Tech and Consumer Discretionary hold the highest cash / asset ratios of any sectors and account for 43% of total S&amp;P 500 ex-Financials cash.</li> </ul> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a7c869205feb07f0e0dae0023005dbd0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"350\">For what it's worth, Goldman expects capex will represent the largest share of S&amp;P 500 cash use in 2021, but forecasts the fastest year/year growth will be in cash M&amp;A and share buybacks. After a 10% decline in cash spending in 2020, the bank forecasts that high cash balances, anemic yields as well as strong economic and earnings growth will combine to drive 19% growth in cash spending in 2021 ($2.8 trillion) and 6% in 2022 ($3 trillion). Investing for growth (capex, R&amp;D, and cash M&amp;A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels<blockquote><ul><li>3.随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？标普500现金/资产比率总额和中位数均已反弹，目前处于创纪录水平，部分原因是过去18个月创纪录的公司债券和后续股票发行。尽管与历史相比，杠杆率仍然很高，但随着企业利润开始改善，杠杆率一直在下降。信息技术和非必需消费品的现金/资产比率是所有行业中最高的，占标普500（不含金融）现金总额的43%。</li></ul>无论如何，高盛预计资本支出将在2021年占标普500现金使用的最大份额，但预测同比增长最快的将是现金并购和股票回购。在2020年现金支出下降10%后，该行预测，高现金余额、低迷的收益率以及强劲的经济和盈利增长将共同推动2021年现金支出增长19%（2.8万亿美元）和6%2022年（3万亿美元）。2021年，增长投资（资本支出、研发和现金并购）应占现金总支出的55%。高现金余额、创纪录的回购授权以及CCAR后金融界的过剩资本也应该会推动2021年回购反弹35%。事实上，该银行回购部门的数据显示，美国年初至今，企业已授权回购6270亿美元，是有记录以来第二快的回购速度（仅落后于2018年税改援助水平），比2020年水平高出155%</blockquote> In terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.<blockquote>在首选交易方面，Kostin重点介绍了净利润率高于平均水平、2020年实现利润率增长50+bp、预计未来两年每年利润率增长50+bp的股票。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fd5a1c4bf80144b4c161f6e0ef5627ff\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"899\">The median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&amp;P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).<blockquote>该股2021年净利润率中位数为26%（标普500中位数为13%），预计到2022年利润率将增长306个基点（中位数为156个基点）。</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.\nAnother notable point:while consensus expects S&P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.\n\nThe greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.\nIn his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:\n\nHow will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?\nHow will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?\nHow does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook? Rates have plunged and high “quality” themes are outperforming.\n\nDigging a little deeper\n\n1. How will companies preserve margins amid input cost pressures?S&P 500 margins notched a record high of 11.9% in  1Q 2021, though investors remain focused on the forward margin outlook given rising input costs.Global shipping woes, raw material inflation as well as acute shortages in both labor and semiconductors have combined to increase costs for companies across the by raising prices and passing higher input costs to their customers.During Q1 calls, many companies discussed price increases and this trend will likely continue during 2Q earnings. Alternatively, with SG&A as a share of sales elevated versus history, companies can also preserve margins through cost cutting. As an example, General Mills announced last week that it faces some of the highest costs in a decade and will implement a mix of both cost cuts and price increases.\n2. Investors have started to reward companies with attractive margin profiles.According to Goldman, profit margins are the second most important driver of company valuations today, behind only equity duration. The bank's sector-neutral factor of stocks with the highest vs. lowest profit margins has also started to outperform.Other “quality” factors such as strong vs. weak balance sheets and high vs. low returns on capital have also inflected higher since early June.\n\n\n\n3. How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?Both aggregate and median S&P 500 cash / assets ratios have rebounded and now stand at record levels, driven in part by record high corporate bond and follow-on equity issuance during the last 18 months. And while leverage remains elevated versus history, it has been falling as corporate profits have started to improve. Info Tech and Consumer Discretionary hold the highest cash / asset ratios of any sectors and account for 43% of total S&P 500 ex-Financials cash.\n\nFor what it's worth, Goldman expects capex will represent the largest share of S&P 500 cash use in 2021, but forecasts the fastest year/year growth will be in cash M&A and share buybacks. After a 10% decline in cash spending in 2020, the bank forecasts that high cash balances, anemic yields as well as strong economic and earnings growth will combine to drive 19% growth in cash spending in 2021 ($2.8 trillion) and 6% in 2022 ($3 trillion). Investing for growth (capex, R&D, and cash M&A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels\nIn terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.\nThe median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SPY":0.9,".DJI":0.9,".SPX":0.9,".IXIC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":146387430,"gmtCreate":1626054173720,"gmtModify":1633930614591,"author":{"id":"3555043402922696","authorId":"3555043402922696","name":"Never ever f","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/52501d43721648c944a019db9c767c5d","vip":1,"crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"wearingBadges":[],"authorIdStr":"3555043402922696","idStr":"3555043402922696"},"htmlText":"Win or loss","listText":"Win or loss","text":"Win or loss","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/146387430","repostId":1129204116,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129204116","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626053358,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1129204116?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-12 09:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Goldman Has Three Questions For Companies During Q2 Earnings Season<blockquote>高盛在第二季度财报季向企业提出三个问题</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129204116","media":"zerohedge","summary":"2Q earnings season kicks off next week when the big banks kick off reporting as usual, and consensus","content":"2Q earnings season kicks off next week when the big banks kick off reporting as usual, and consensus expects 2Q EPS growth of 61% year/year, driven by a combination of base effect, 22% sales growth and 256 bps of net margin expansion to 11.1% even though the median stock is forecast to grow EPS by a more modest 24%.

Investing for growth (capex, R&amp;D, and cash M&amp;A) should account for 55% of total cash spending in 2021.High cash balances, record buyback authorizations, and excess capital for Financials post-CCAR should also drive a 35% rebound in buybacks in 2021.Indeed, data from the bank's buybacks desk show that UScorporates have authorized $627 billion in buybacks YTD, the second-fastest pace on record(only behind the tax reform aided level in 2018) and 155% above 2020 levels<blockquote><ul><li>3.随着资产负债表的恢复，公司将如何优先考虑现金支出？标普500现金/资产比率总额和中位数均已反弹，目前处于创纪录水平，部分原因是过去18个月创纪录的公司债券和后续股票发行。尽管与历史相比，杠杆率仍然很高，但随着企业利润开始改善，杠杆率一直在下降。信息技术和非必需消费品的现金/资产比率是所有行业中最高的，占标普500（不含金融）现金总额的43%。</li></ul>无论如何，高盛预计资本支出将在2021年占标普500现金使用的最大份额，但预测同比增长最快的将是现金并购和股票回购。在2020年现金支出下降10%后，该行预测，高现金余额、低迷的收益率以及强劲的经济和盈利增长将共同推动2021年现金支出增长19%（2.8万亿美元）和6%2022年（3万亿美元）。2021年，增长投资（资本支出、研发和现金并购）应占现金总支出的55%。高现金余额、创纪录的回购授权以及CCAR后金融界的过剩资本也应该会推动2021年回购反弹35%。事实上，该银行回购部门的数据显示，美国年初至今，企业已授权回购6270亿美元，是有记录以来第二快的回购速度（仅落后于2018年税改援助水平），比2020年水平高出155%</blockquote> In terms of preferred trades, Kostin highlights a screen of stocks with above-average net margins, realized margin growth of 50+ bp in 2020, and expected margin growth of 50+ bp in each of the next two years.<blockquote>在首选交易方面，Kostin重点介绍了净利润率高于平均水平、2020年实现利润率增长50+bp、预计未来两年每年利润率增长50+bp的股票。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fd5a1c4bf80144b4c161f6e0ef5627ff\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"899\">The median stock has a 2021E net margin of 26% (vs. 13% for S&amp;P 500 median) and is forecast to grow margins by 306 bp through 2022 and (vs. 156 bp for median stock).<blockquote>该股2021年净利润率中位数为26%（标普500中位数为13%），预计到2022年利润率将增长306个基点（中位数为156个基点）。</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Compare this to one year ago, when S&amp;P 500 EPS fell by 32% as the pandemic sparked a sharp recession. Cyclical Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors are forecast to lead the index in EPS growth.<blockquote>第二季度财报季将于下周拉开帷幕，届时各大银行将照常发布财报，市场普遍预计第二季度每股收益将同比增长61%，这得益于基数效应、22%的销售增长和256个基点的净利润扩张至11.1%，尽管预计股票中位数每股收益将增长24%。相比之下，一年前，由于疫情引发严重衰退，标普500每股收益下降了32%。周期性工业、非必需消费品和材料行业预计将引领该指数的每股收益增长。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d96a80eab68f78b39d83abd789745e\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"336\"><blockquote></blockquote> In 2Q 2020, Brent crude traded at an average of $33/bbl and Energy stocks posted an aggregate net loss. Oil prices averaged $69/bblin 2Q and Energy firms are expected to return to profitability.<blockquote>2020年第二季度，布伦特原油平均交易价格为33美元/桶，能源股出现总净亏损。第二季度油价平均为69美元/桶，能源公司预计将恢复盈利。</blockquote> Like last quarter, Financials are expected to be the primary driver of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth. In 1Q, Financials represented $3 of the total $9 EPS beat versus consensus expectations.Financials EPS are forecast to grow by 116% in 2Q and account for 25% of S&amp;P 500 EPS growth.Most banks analysts expect results to come in largely in line with consensus after adjusting for reserve releases. Capital markets activity has normalized following the strong pace in 2020 and 1Q 2021. However,large reserve releases will boost EPS for the third quarter in a row and could drive up to 18% EPS uplift for Banks by year-end.Though investors are not likely to reward these beats outright since releases are non-recurring, analysts expect that the market will pay for the capital return that could result from the earnings tailwind and the recent CCAR results.<blockquote>与上季度一样，金融股预计将成为标普500每股收益增长的主要驱动力。第一季度，金融股占每股收益总额9美元中的3美元，超出了市场普遍预期。预计第二季度金融股每股收益将增长116%，占标普500每股收益增长的25%。大多数银行分析师预计，在调整准备金释放后，业绩将基本符合共识。继2020年和2021年第一季度的强劲增长之后，资本市场活动已经正常化。然而，大量准备金释放将连续第三季度提振每股收益，并可能在年底前推动银行每股收益增长高达18%。尽管由于发布是非经常性的，投资者不太可能直接奖励这些业绩，但分析师预计，市场将为盈利顺风和最近的CCAR结果可能带来的资本回报买单。</blockquote> Another notable point:while consensus expects S&amp;P 500 EPS to grow by 61%, the median stock is only forecast to grow earnings by 24%.<blockquote>另一点值得注意：虽然市场普遍预计标普500每股收益将增长61%，但预计该股的盈利中位数仅增长24%。</blockquote> <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06b7ce6f61cb168c376424758fc9c5f0\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"326\"><blockquote></blockquote> The greater rebound in aggregate earnings is largely a function of the base effect, or the sharper decline in earnings in 2020; the median S&amp;P 500 stock saw its EPS fall by just 12% year/year in 2Q 2020 compared with the 32% decline in aggregate earnings.The five largest stocks in the index (FB, AMZN, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) account for 22% of market cap and 14% of S&amp;P 500 2Q 2021 EPS.Despite last year’s acute 2Q economic contraction, these firms actually posted average EPS growth of 38% and are still expected to grow earnings by an average of 52% in 2Q 2021.<blockquote>总收益的更大反弹很大程度上是基数效应的函数，或者说2020年收益的更大幅度下降；2020年第二季度，标普500股票的每股收益中位数仅同比下降12%，而总收益下降了32%。该指数中最大的五只股票（FB、AMZN、AAPL、MSFT、GOOGL）占市值的22%，占标普500 2021年第二季度每股收益的14%。尽管去年第二季度经济严重萎缩，但这些公司的每股收益实际上平均增长了38%，预计2021年第二季度的盈利平均增长52%。</blockquote> In his preview of Q2 earnings season, Goldman's chief equity strategist David Kostin -who expects the S&amp;P to close the year at 4,300 or -0.5% lower from Friday's record close- focuses on three questions for managements this earnings season:<blockquote>高盛首席股票策略师David Kostin在第二季度财报季的预览中——世卫组织预计标准普尔指数今年收盘价为4,300点，较周五创纪录的收盘价下跌-0.5%-重点关注本财报季向管理层提出的三个问题：</blockquote> <ol> <li>How will firms preserve profit margins amid input cost pressures?</li> <li>How will companies prioritize their cash spending as balance sheets recover?</li> <li>How does ongoing policy uncertainty affect the business outlook?
