Standard & Poor’s Global believes that the fourth-quarter earnings forecast that companies provide when reporting third-quarter results will be more important to future market direction than the actual third-quarter numbers themselves.

“October is bringing in profits, with third-quarter estimates already down 7%, and the whisper numbers are a bit more than that,” Howard Silverblatt, chief index analyst, wrote over the weekend. “The biggest concern (from the actual numbers for the third quarter, when consumers were still spending) is the guidance for the fourth quarter, where consumers have fallen, inflation has continued, and the Fed’s ‘adjustments’ will have a greater impact.”

Third-quarter earnings for the S&P 500 are expected to grow 6.1% compared to the same quarter last year, and about 18% during the second quarter of 2022, according to S&P Global.

Next year estimates are for 14.3% earnings growth through 2022, and a P/E ratio of 15.0%.

Silverblatt also looked at the typical performance of the S&P 500 in October. “Historically, the index has gained 57.4% of the time, with an average gain of 4.18% for bullish months, average decrease of 4.67% for low months, and an average overall decrease of 0.46%,” he wrote.
