Fisher Investments Reviews How Stocks Move Ahead of Earnings

Fisher Investments’ founder, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Investment Officer, Ken Fisher, explains how stocks can rise despite flat or falling corporate earnings. While some may find it hard to fathom, markets price in the future—typically looking 3-30 months ahead—and not past earnings or projections. Ken notes the stock market often bottoms before the economy, with an average delay around six months.

According to Ken, following a bear market bottom, the stock market rises, while earnings and earnings projections continue to fall alongside sentiment. Ken says forward-looking markets can shrug off poor earnings and dour expectations because they are always looking past current economic reality. Instead, markets price what the future is likely to be.
