Earnings season is underway, and so far results have beaten expectationsBut Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson worries there's weakness lying below the surface. He found 15 high-quality stocks with strong profits to invest in now. Investors are neck-deep in earnings as second quarter reports roll in, and so far the news has been good, but not great. In a note to clients from earlier in the week, Morgan Stanley chief US equity strategist Mike Wilson wrote that he anticipates earnings results will be better than Wall Street predicted. Then, they pared the stocks they found down to those with a bullish overweight rating from Morgan Stanley analysts.

Earnings season will reveal which companies will suffer a top line decline, Morgan Stanley says. At first glance, lower inflation seems like a boon for market watchers worried about a recession. While investors curse higher inflation, companies have come to see it as a blessing. He anticipates that disinflation will dig away at sales this earnings season, and is prepared for disappointment. The results are the 11 stocks below that Wilson believes will have strong FCF yields and healthy operating margins through the earnings season.

Here are 38 stocks that will revise earnings estimates higher, according to Morgan Stanley. Corporate profits are on pace to fall 9% through roughly a fifth of the Q2 earnings season, which is about 6 percentage points better than anticipated, according to Morgan Stanley. Morgan StanleyIn fact, the firm found that earnings revisions decelerated in two thirds of industries in the weeks since early July. That's cause for concern as a seasonally challenging time for revisions nears — earnings revisions breadth traditionally trends downwards in the months of July through November. Morgan Stanley expects nominal earnings and sales growth to suffer as price growth slows faster than expected, even if long-awaited interest rate cuts come.

Despite solid economic data, some Wall Street strategists are sticking with their gloomy outlook for the economy and stocks.

LONDON, July 26 (Reuters) - Even as fears of a 2023 U.S. recession recede and stock market bears concede defeat, there's scant sign of party mode. After wild swings of output, prices, employment, liquidity and interest rates, firm convictions about the precise onset of "technical" recessions - or even previously reliable gauges of bull and bear markets - have all become a bit suspect. Whether on a domestic or global scale, aggregate views of the economy, or stock market, right now are likely misleading. A bull to bear market and back again in little over 18 months - or so it seems. SP 500 2023 YTD THROUGH JULY 21BLUNTEDChief among the puzzles is the variable impact of sharply higher interest rates on both households and firms.

The Federal Reserve hiked rates in July, and it could be the final rate hike of the cycle. But while the latest rate hike was all but certain, there are still plenty of questions about what lies ahead. In a note from Wednesday evening, Goldman Sachs chief economist Jan Hatzius pointed out that Powell made it clear any further hikes will depend on inflation data. But Bank of America analysts led by US economist Michael Gapen remain unconvinced that the rate hike cycle is truly over. As for equities, Wall Street widely expected this week's rate hike, so there are no major changes to their second-half investing recommendations.

Manufacturing data, inflation data, market breadth, and high rates are warning signals, he says. Bullandbearprofits.comShort-term Treasury rates remaining elevated prove the Fed is going to continue raising rates, Wolfenbarger said. The ISM PMI Manufacturing Index is currently at 46, and readings below 50 mean the economy is contracting. Bullandbearprofits.comAll of this amounts to a bearish outlook for stocks, Wolfenbarger believes. Some in the market are growing fatigued of the recession forecasts as the market surges back toward all-time-highs.

Wall Street hasn't been so divided for two decades, according to Bloomberg. Get the inside scoop on today’s biggest stories in business, from Wall Street to Silicon Valley — delivered daily. Similarly, the Federal Reserve's own forecasters say it's a 50-50 call whether the US will manage to escape a severe economic slump. And you can add Wall Street to the list of places where there's limited agreement on if there'll be a recession before the end of this year. The range of views on Wall Street is so wide that when it comes to stocks, analysts haven't been so divided for 20 years, according to Bloomberg.

First-half US corporate bankruptcies surged to the highest level since 2010, data from S&P Global Market Intelligence shows. Almost 3,000 firms folded up in the last six months, a 68% jump from a year earlier, according to Epiq Bankruptcy. American businesses have come under increased stress after the Federal Reserve raised interest rates aggressively. Total company failures for the period surged 68% from a year earlier to almost 3,000, according to data provider Epiq Bankruptcy. Rising corporate bankruptcies are a worrying sign for the wider US economy, which is already under strain from the effects of the Fed's aggressive interest rate hikes.

You don't get the best first-half Nasdaq rally in 40 years simply because the Federal Reserve did this, or the yield curve in the bond market did that. It was almost as if it was prosaic to seek profits, like, "How dare you defy the teachings of the yield curve, you foolish soon-to-be- broke apostate." It was the second move, the second week of March, that told the second tale of the first half: the fall of Silicon Valley Bank. Here we had an out-of-nowhere collapse of a well-known seemingly well-run bank that ran afoul, again, of the yield curve. No company could rival Club stocks Apple (AAPL), Alphabet (GOOGL), Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft and Meta Platforms (META) — nice metamorphous there and Tesla , not a Club name.

Morgan Stanley believes a rapid stock market pullback is imminent. "S & P 500 is at risk of a near-term drawdown." Here are the risks Wilson references: Consensus earnings expectations that are much too high given the deteriorating economic environment. Wilson's fourth quarter S & P 500 target is 3,900, or 10% lower from its Friday close. The strategist is more optimistic about next year, seeing the S & P 500 rebounding to 4,200 in the first half of 2024.

It also doesn't offer a fair characterization of the entire S&P 500's performance. Hussman's preferred valuation measure is total market cap of non-financial stocks to total revenue of non-financial stocks. According to Bank of America, 80% of the S&P 500's returns over a 10-year period can be attributed to valuations. The red line in the chart below shows the gauge, while the blue is the S&P 500's price action. Predicted in April 2007 that the S&P 500 could lose 40%, then it lost 55% in the subsequent collapse from 2007 to 2009.

An American flag hangs behind traders working on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on October 11, 2019 in New York City. Morgan Stanley, for example, has adopted a downbeat view for the months ahead. Falling prices, Morgan Stanley explained, can cut into revenue growth and weigh on earnings. "This should begin to hit asset prices by the end of this month and carry into the fall," Morgan Stanley strategists said. To Stockton, the S&P 500 could soon trade as high as 4,510, or about 3% higher than current levels.

The S&P 500 has pushed its way into a new bull market, but experts are torn over whether the rally can last. Though he previously predicted a 15% increase for the S&P 500, he's turned more bearish on the market as recession odds increase. Goldman SachsThe hype for AI is real and could lead the S&P 500 to climb higher this year, Goldman Sachs said. That could take the S&P 500 as much as 14% higher in the coming years, strategists said. The S&P 500 could end the year at 4,500, strategists predicted, implying around a 5% upside from current levels and a gain of about 17% for the full year.

Stocks are once again in a bull market, with the S&P 500 now up more than 20% since October's lows. Nearly all of the recent rally can also be attributed to the index's top 10 stocks, he said. "During the late-90s tech bubble, over one-third of returns came from these mega-cap stocks," Wool said. "In the recent bull run, by contrast, almost the entire market return was accounted for by just ten companies' performance." A 15% decline would put the S&P 500 at 3,800.

Falling inflation is bad for some stocks as it hurts margins, says Morgan Stanley. Analysts at the bank named 30 stocks most immune to falling inflation. This is because businesses have a harder time passing along higher costs, according to a recent note from Morgan Stanley. "As inflation declines, it becomes problematic for margins as pricing power declines while input costs are realized at a lag and come from a period when prices were higher." This in mind, the bank's analysts put together a list of stocks with the strongest pricing power — or the ability continue charging the same price no matter what the macroeconomic circumstances are.

Investors shouldn't be so quick to believe the bear has left the stock market, Morgan Stanley warned. But he said investors shouldn't think the bear market has ended just yet, pointing specifically to the outlook for earnings as a reason to remain cautious. "With the S & P 500 rally now crossing the 20% threshold, more are declaring the bear market officially over," he said in a note to clients Monday. The 20% threshold has emboldened some market participants to "declare the official end to the bear market," Wilson said. He said the current bear market is similar to the market between 1946 and 1948, which also saw a boom-and-bust story.
