Small and Midcap earnings growth falls

Forward earnings estimates for Small and Midcap stocks have decreased from a 60% to a 45% growth rate for 2027, while the S&P 500 has remained relatively stable. Lance Roberts reported these changes as part of ongoing tracking of index earnings estimates since the beginning of the year.

Roberts recently noted that 44% of S&P 500 companies were set to report earnings during a single week, highlighting a key period for corporate disclosures in the index (link). In a separate update, he compared the current state of the markets to the tone of Stealer's Wheel's 1970s hit in his Before the Bell Report (link). These prior observations provide context to his ongoing coverage of earnings trends.
