☆ The word 'ESG' is vanishing from earnings calls. Here's what companies are pitching instead

But Mahaffy's research found that it is not necessarily because companies have leaned away from socially conscious strategies. Instead, she pointed a growing use of the term "sustainability," as well as other words like "climate" or "decarbonization" that fall under the ESG umbrella. It comes at a time when ESG has become increasingly fraught in the political sphere. Mahaffry noted that areas like the U.S. where ESG has received the most scrutiny have seen the biggest drops in use of the term on earnings calls. On WestRock's earnings call earlier this month, Sewell told listeners: "This is just one example of many of how WestRock's unique capabilities position us for growth."

Thursday after the close brings us to the main events of the week: Earnings from Apple and Amazon.

The biggest week of this earnings season showed us that things aren't as bad as many feared. The week ahead of earnings, including several more Club names, should tell us more. The results are always important, but it's the guidance and management commentary we will really hone in on to better understand the path ahead. In Amazon's case, a solid first quarter for its AWS cloud business was overshadowed by management seeing a material slowdown in April. ET: Nonfarm Payrolls Looking back It was the biggest week of this earnings season for the Club as several of our mega-cap holdings and industry bellwethers reported results.

☆ The Fed, earnings, jobs and China: How we think about this week's deluge of data

It is very premature, in my view, to think about or be talking about pausing our rate hikes. The news sent those stocks reliant on China for growth — Starbucks, Estee Lauder and Wynn Resorts, among many others — higher. Or bad news could just be bad news if weak data signals a recession ahead. And good news could be good news: for example, if China reopens and U.S. companies exposed to the region see a boost in demand.

For us, that's P & G because their products hold a higher priority when it comes to how consumers spend their money. Now, containerboard — P & G products ship in boxes after all — is seeing a large glut. Just last week at the Barclays Global Consumer Staples Conference, P & G management said they see some "good news on commodity input costs, sequentially. Management also noted that as of now, they are still seeing no real signs of trade-down in P & G products to cheaper alternatives. The price in the store will be more sticky than the price P & G pays for logistics or the prices they are able to negotiate with suppliers.
