HSBC has high hopes for the third quarter earnings season and is sure that some stocks will do better than others. In the three months ended June 30, nearly 79% of companies in the S & P 500 beat analysts' earnings expectations, while 60% of companies in the index posted an upside surprise to Wall Street revenue forecasts. Ahead of the third-quarter earnings season, HSBC recently listed its favorite stocks to buy, where it believes market expectations are low and there are opportunities. More than half the analysts covering Target give the stock a buy rating, and the average price target implies 16% upside. The average price target corresponds to upside of just 3% or so, based on the same FactSet survey.

This time of year typically tests nerves, more so when — as now — an election is onrushing and the S & P 500 was already up 20% for the year. Since June 30, the equal-weighted S & P 500 has gained 9.5%, more than triple the Nasdaq 100's rise. A buyer at the mid-July S & P 500 peak of 5667 sustained a quick 8% tumble in three weeks. Goldman Sachs calculated VIX being this elevated with the S & P 500 calmly clicking to record highs is essentially unheard-of. Cash that's still yielding well more than inflation and bonds holding their value allow investors to shoulder higher equity exposures rather than rotating out.

After the latest blast of consumer inflation data, traders are facing a conundrum around how they should interpret the monthly numbers. September's consumer price index report topped the Street's expectations, rising 0.1% from the month prior and increasing at a pace of 2.4% over the past 12 months. Still, the annual inflation rate was the lowest since February 2021. Relative to expectations, September's CPI number does not imply a reacceleration of inflation. Rather, the rate of consumer inflation continues to slow, albeit at a more modest pace than some had hoped for.
