(4/26/23) Microsoft and Google exceeded expectations in their latest earnings reports, providng some lift to markets after hours. Microsoft and Apple are now talking about expanding stock buy-backs, a big contributor to the goss advance of the markets. Since 2011, 40% of market advances have come from stock buy-backs. This also enhances companies' earnings per share look. Markets broke through the 20-DMA yesterday, and now are on sell signals across the board, suggesting lower prices over the next few weeks. Important to remember: With earnings coming in better-than-expected, those beats are are on significantly reduced levels of estimates from last years'. Slower earnings and slower economic environments will continue to weigh on stocks as we move in to summer.
