Market Update: Q1 Earnings Season, AEX Indication, and News Highlights

It is just as chilly and drizzly at the fairs as it is outside.

The AEX indication is -0.4% after a meaningless session on Wall Street Friday and no breaking news this weekend. We are going to peak Q1 earnings season this week and after this week we are really only left with Apple and Nvidia as leading names that have yet to come through with their results.

You can read our preview of this week and especially all those figures here and now first the opening. It remains to be seen whether, how and when the broad market will choose a direction. For example, the AEX has been moving up and around 760 for weeks and it does not yet know whether it should price in a recession, look beyond it, or whether it will not happen.

  • European futures 0.2% to 0.5% lager
  • The US also costs 0.4% less
  • In Asia you will mainly find lower prices and indices with Hong Kong as the outlier: Hang Seng -1.4% and Hang Seng Tech Index but -1,1%

Alibaba -1.8%
Tencent -2,9%
TSMC -0,8%

  • The volatility (CBOE VIX Index) is -2.3% at 16.8 and the BofA MOVE Index (bonds) is +0.2% at 120.8
  • The dollar is up 0.1% to 1.0978
  • Gold is now doing -0.1%, oil is down more than one percent and crypto is up more than one percent after a bad week

Interest rates tend to be slightly lower:

Grow! Philips’ Q1 figures are much better than expected. However, there is a huge loss because the group is taking accelerated provisions in connection with.

Basic-Fit reports much more turnover in its Q1 update, 68 new clubs, more members, less outflow, especially higher turnover per premium member and maintains the outlook.

TKH also performed much better than expected in Q1, but as reported, the company is struggling with Smart Manufacturing. The company is cautious about its outlook, which will be updated next quarter.

In the macro agenda, the German Ifo Gescháftsklima stands out and don’t ask why in a few days the market will pay attention to the purchasing managers index Chicago Purchasing Managers Index (MPJ), but not today to the Chicago Fed Index. The track record may not be of interest to the market.

Finally, after some fives and sixes, the illustrious Bed Bath & Beyond files for Chapter 11, or bankruptcy. End of a legendary share with a huge price spectacle at the end. The chart speaks for itself… Turnover and profit have completely imploded in recent years.

Don’t confuse Bed Bath & Beyond’s ticker BBBY with BYND, which is again from Beyond Meat. Looks a bit like… Gee, how hip and hot was this fund when it debuted.
