Fundamentals Financial markets have been extraordinarily challenging lately. Most investors were equally surprised by the market crash as well as the subsequent rebound. Both, the crash and the sharp rebound, did not surprise those who followed us here on Seeking Alpha. They were on top of b...
Using Refinitiv's Earnings Aggregates published this morning, Friday, May 22nd, 2020, and updating our spreadsheet, readers can see the continued decline in the rate of erosion in forward estimates, which - all other things being equal - should be very much a positive for the S&P 500 and t...
