I’m looking for a mixed bag of BIG TECH earnings from Alphabet (GOOG), Meta Platforms (FB), and Amazon (AMZN). Unless Meta Platforms and Amazon can deliver big earnings surprises, I don’t think these reports will lift the market appreciably. And the week will end with the January jobs report.

As I noted in my latest YouTube video, selling has been concentrated in the highest PE stocks in the market. The top 10% of the stocks in the Russell 1000 index when ranked by Price to Earnings Ratio were down 7.8% for 2022 as of January 6, according to Goldman Sachs. Not that the rest of the stock market has been sending rose petals our way so far in 2022, but the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index was down just 1.8% for 2022 as of January 7. The NASDAQ 100 is down 4.8% for 2022 as of January 7–which speaks to the same point.So far, the selling is really a blip for most of the market. But it is serious for technology shares and especially high PE technology shares. So now the question is “Will the selling spread?”

This earnings season looks so tricky that I’m going to sit it out rather than attempt to leverage moves in the shares of reporting companies by purchasing either Call (a bet that the stock will go up) or Put (a bet that the stock will go down) options.

It’s BIG TECH earnings week with earnings from Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOG), Facebook (FB) and Amazon (AMZN). Facebook kicks off earnings from this big tech group on Monday, October 25, after the close. Alphabet and Microsoft follow on Tuesday, October 26, after the close of trading with Amazon and Apple on Thursday October er 27 after the close. The stakes are high for these companies and their stocks and for the entire stock market.These five stocks account for almost 23% of the capitalization of the entire Standard & Poor’s 500. And the technology sector makes up 33% of the indexTo an extraordinary degree as goes the technology sector, so goes the market as a whole right now. And as these five stocks go, so does technology.

Shares of Netflix (NFLX) were down today, closing 2.17% lower, even through the company reported after the close yesterday that it had added 4.38 million new subscribers. That was well above the company’s own forecast of 3.5 million new subscribers and Wall Street projections of 3.78 million for the third quarter. But the higher than projected number of new subscribers weren’t enough.

As we contemplate the extraordinarily strong earnings from Wall Street’s big banks last week, it’s important to remember that Wall Street isn’t Main Street.

Big bank earnings begin on Wednesday and Thursday. Unfortunately, won’t tell us anything useful about the margin pressures from rising global supply chain shipping costs or higher prices for raw materials. Those are the factors that could produce a quarter’s worth of warnings and unpleasant surprises once third quarter earnings season starts on October 13. But to learn about the effect of those margin pressures on earnings we’re going to have to wait for reports from the consumer and industrial companies that are on the front lines of these trends.
