Focus turns to earnings as growth fears deepen

PHILIPPINE STOCKS’ struggle may continue in the week ahead as investors look to corporate earnings to offset negative sentiment emanating from overseas markets.

The benchmark Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) ended a two-week rally, retreating by 1.64% week on week to end at 6,654.45 last Friday amid mounting fears on the health of the global economy.

“It will be the same old story. It seems there are no bright lights ahead and we’re seeing the same old problems,” Astro C. del Castillo, managing director at First Grade Finance, Inc., said in a telephone interview.

After a week-long holiday, China reopens this week with the release of its January balance of trade data, with jittery investors seeking validation on how long a slowdown would last during its transition from a manufacturing to a service-based economy. Likewise, focus will be on Japan when it releases its gross domestic product data, with the consensus at a contraction of 0.7% for the fourth quarter. The Bank of Japan has adopted a negative interest-rate policy to spur demand, but this has resulted in the sharp appreciation of the yen.

In the United States, the January inflation report is scheduled to come out by the end of the week, the result of which can play a role in the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy decision.

“Various narratives in the global scene are now fraught with cliffhangers and there is a growing sense in the markets a watershed event is on the verge of occurring, thus clearing some if not most of these imbalances,” 2TradeAsia.com said in a research note.

“Until then, there may be little reason to think the boom days are still here,” the brokerage added.

Global stocks have been battered by the triple punch of faltering growth in China, low oil prices and the impact of central bank stimulus efforts to economies. The PSEi is down 4.28% for the year.

Amid a gloomy external environment, investors are pinning their hopes on favorable domestic corporate earnings to provide some positive spin to trades.

“We hope earnings can cushion the market’s decline,” First Grade Finance’s Mr. del Castillo said.

On the technical front, Luis A. Limlingan, business development head at Regina Capital Development Corp., said in a mobile phone message a break below the critical 6,600 mark will pull down the benchmark index to 6,487 — its 20-day moving average — and further to 6,390.

On the other hand, a rally beyond 6,769 would push the local barometer towards resistance points at the 6,900 to 6,950 levels though sustaining it would be hard due to low momentum, Mr. Limlingan said.

“Like in the previous weeks, we are still yet to see a clear higher low base, making our reversal scenario unlikely at this point,” he said.
