It's The Economy Stupid: Market Close

IBM disappoints, drags the Dow Jones Industrial Average index down for the day.   That’s how it goes when you only have 30 stocks in an index and one of them tanks.  The Dow is diverging from the S&P 500 by the most in more than two years amid weaker results from companies such as Johnson & Johnson and IBM. The average difference between their performance in the past three days has been 0.5 percentage point, the most since October 2011.

 

However, most U.S. stocks rose as investors assessed earnings from companies.  Sure Coach didn’t sell enough purses, and IBM’s earnings were not so much.  Still, three stocks rose for every two that declined in the S&P 500 Index.  This is earnings season, and at this point earnings are all that matters.  Twenty-five companies in the S&P 500 including Northern Trust Corp., Netflix Inc. and EBay Inc. report earnings today.  Of the 81 index members that have posted results so far this season, 70 percent have beaten estimates for profit and 64 percent have exceeded sales projections, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
