The earnings numbers are ordsprog

The earnings numbers are still respectable, but they are softening. The psychology is that you can't make projections about future earnings without having some sense about where the price of oil is going and what the consumer will do.

The impression is that corporations are being increasingly cautious in their projections for the first quarter, which is a trend that you've seen for the last few quarters. I think the companies are taking current economic and business conditions and projecting them onto the future earnings, rather than incorporating the impact the improving economy might have on earnings.

I think there will certainly be some concern about earnings, but there are also parts of the market that will probably be grossly overvalued. I may not be an expert in all of them, but I do know that the earnings that would be produced by the businesses over their lifetime could never justify their market capitalizations; people bought them because they thought they have to go up, so in that sense, they're thinking about psychology rather than economics.

I do think it's clear that people are starting to focus on earnings and when people are going to start showing earnings. Although Yahoo! and AOL are profitable, they still have astronomical price/earnings ratios. It's going to be a while before earnings catch up to valuations.

The price-earnings multiple, based on future earnings forecasts, is still fairly low, in the 5 to 6 range. These P/E multiples can go as high as 10. There's still some upside for most of them, except maybe Delta.

Earnings are moving right on up, and I don't see any serious diminishment of the earnings projections. It looks like we are going to do 10% to 15% profit growth in 2006. That is what is pushing stock prices higher.

It will eventually slow the growth rate of earnings. Therefore you should own companies with low price-earnings ratios, not high price-earnings ratios.

They make all sorts of devices for reconstructing your skeletal framework and they have a number of different businesses. This is a company that's expected to grow somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 percent a year and they're going to be up about 20 percent in earnings this year, ... Its got a price-to-earnings multiple a little bit better than market but it's got a better earnings growth rate, which justifies it.

This morning it was really a story of positive earnings on the tape and no major hiccups on the economic front. All in all, it's going to play out as a respectable but not blow-out earnings season.

We've now changed the valuation of the stock market quite a bit, ... If anything, the earnings estimates have been going up and stocks have been going down. The price-to-earnings ratio on forward earnings is now down to about 15 times, which is very low relative to interest rates and inflation at the present time.

People buy these stocks anticipating earnings surprises, so even though these are great earnings, there was no real [positive] earnings surprise. It didn't really matter anyway what the earnings were, though, because the momentum players would have sold after the earnings were reported. They buy on the rumor, sell on the news.

There's skepticism about earnings -- companies may report good earnings but they might have some negative comments to make about future revenue growth.

The earnings picture has come in much better than expected. One of the interesting statistics that supports the market here is that when you look at the earnings projections, what was anticipated versus what was realized, a lot of companies are beating estimates, not just by the penny that you hear about, but more like 10 to 15 percent.

As long as we continue to see good earnings and the reaction to good earnings positive, then you will see Nasdaq as the sector of choice. The Dow is being weighted by this conflicting (economic) story -- stronger consumer spending and OK-looking inflation numbers. But the tech (sector) is merrily rolling along.
