#SP500 | Earnings Lookahead (Feb 9 – Feb 13)
While the Dow just crossed 50k, software has been through the meat grinder, with the sector seeing double-digit weekly losses on AI "disruption" fears. This week's prints wll be i"prove it" moment for the group.
Highlighted in orange are the Top 3 Expected Volatility events (avg. historical move):
$APP (Feb 11): 19.1% — Ad-tech & AI scaling
$EXPE (Feb 12): 12.5% — Travel demand & margin expansion
$MRNA (Feb 13): 10.6% — Pipeline execution post-vaccine era
My view is that its difficult to play earnings for companies that are driven by sentiment and not fundamentals so I am staying away software stocks.
