Summary · why it matters

The Q2 earnings season is driving a broad wave of positive estimate revisions across 8 of 16 Zacks sectors, extending a nearly year-long trend beyond Technology and Energy into Transportation, Finance, Aerospace, Industrials, Utilities, and Construction. With 444 S&P 500 members reporting, total earnings are up 42.2% on 14.8% revenue gains, though excluding Micron and Alphabet the growth rate moderates. The Magnificent 7 group is on track for 85.5% earnings growth on 27.5% higher revenues, but stripping out Alphabet's $77.4 billion unrealized gain on its SpaceX stake reduces that to 30.3%. The Tech sector alone accounts for 41.6% of S&P 500 earnings, and excluding Alphabet, Micron, and Nvidia, its Q2 earnings growth drops from 94.6% to 32.7%.
