The EPS Shock
GDP growth in the Euro-area (roughly 2%) is likely to have been stronger than GDP in the US in Q1 (roughly 1 -1.5%) for the first time since 1Q14. And weak US growth coincided with fresh declines in global EPS growth.
Forward global EPS down 11.3% since Jul’14 peak; energy -53%, but broader notable deterioration in staples -11%, industrials -8%, financials -7%, also.
And as EPS slows, the question of how such an unprecedented era of monetary policy easing has led to such a timid recovery in global growth is again rekindled.
