☆ Buckle up. These stocks could see big moves in reaction to earnings this week
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-22 | by ( Lisa Kailai Han | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

As the busiest week for first quarter earnings results kicks off, several stocks on the docket to report this week may be poised for big swings. As of last Friday, 74% of companies in the S & P 500 reported a positive earnings surprise while 58% beat revenue expectations, according to FactSet. This week is scheduled to be the busiest one of the season, with 29% of companies in the S & P 500 — or 146 companies — due to post results. With so many corporate results to be released this week, investors may want to pay special attention to some earnings more than others in advance. CNBC Pro screened for the stocks that could see significant post-earnings moves either up or down, based on investors' expectations in the options market.

☆ How the stars aligned for Wingstop stock to gain 380% in 5 years
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-23 | by ( Lloyd Lee | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

In the past five years, Wingstop, which is listed on the Nasdaq, saw its stock grow 380%, from $72.36 in March 2019 to $348 as of Thursday. Not the wildest 5-year rally by any means, but those are some eye-catching gains for a chicken wing-slinging, fast-food chain. Fast food chains were no exception. It's also difficult to look at other more storied fast food restaurants, such as McDonald's, which is trading at $282.63 as of Friday, and compare that to Wingstop, Gargiulo said. But overall, there are very few fast food restaurants that look and operate like Wingstop.

Video of former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden is played during a hearing by the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol on June 13, 2022 in Washington. WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Investors' emotions may run high in 2024, especially in the realm of politics as President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are poised for a rematch in this year's presidential election. "Politics have become increasingly more emotional," Moira McLachlan, senior investment strategist in AllianceBernstein's wealth strategies group, said Wednesday at Financial Advisor Magazine's Invest in Women conference in West Palm Beach, Florida. However, investors should avoid knee-jerk reactions by setting and sticking to an investment plan, strategists said. "It's so important to stay invested, and you have to try to take the emotion out of investing" to keep from doing something "detrimental" to your goals, said Kristina Hooper, chief global market strategist at Invesco.

☆ Here's when the Fed is likely to start cutting interest rates, according to investment strategists
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-14 | by ( Greg Iacurci | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Kent Nishimura | Getty Images News | Getty ImagesWest Palm Beach, Fla. — The U.S. Federal Reserve is likely to start cutting interest rates by the end of second quarter despite recent "hotter than expected" inflation data, according to Kristina Hooper, chief global market strategist at Invesco. The question has become, at what point — and how quickly — does the central bank start to cut rates in order to avoid plunging the economy into a downturn? Fed chair Jerome Powell said last week that the Fed may not be far off from throttling back. The Fed last raised interest rates in summer 2023; in prior interest-rate-hiking cycles, the Fed began cutting rates about 8½ months later, Hooper said. Jenny Johnson, president and CEO of Franklin Templeton, also expects the central bank to begin cutting rates this year, though in the second half of 2024 at Fed policy meetings in July or September.

☆ Activist Petrus Advisers has a plan to help lift Criteo’s share price. Here’s how it might unfold

Criteo operates across three segments – marketing solutions, retail media, and Iponweb – but generated 83% of its $1.95 billion of revenue in 2023 from the marketing solutions segment. To many in the investor community, this was the death knell for cookies leading to uncertainty for Criteo's largest segment. Additionally, the company's retail media segment is a very appealing and growing business using software as a service for e-commerce companies. Petrus will likely nominate outside directors to the board as they rarely propose Petrus insiders for board seats. If it does not settle, Petrus has shown that they are willing to take a proxy fight to a vote.

The inflows this year come at a time when, historically, money funds see seasonal outflows. Ho calculates about $5.5 trillion of the assets sitting in money market funds are core liquidity for companies and cash savings for retail investors. In fact, the most recent push into money market funds is coming from institutional investors, according to the ICI. Assets of institutional money market funds increased by $33.06 billion to $3.65 trillion, while retail money market funds rose by $8.62 billion to $2.35 trillion, the organization found. That's because yields on money market funds lag behind Fed moves.
