Goldman Sachs has 22 stocks that it believes will beat earnings expectations:
The story comes from Business Insider (click here) which reports:
Last night, Alcoa kicked off second quarter earnings season with a beat.
Over the next several weeks, earnings reports will roll in with 72% of the S&P 500 set to announce quarterly results over a three-week period beginning July 14.
In a note to clients ahead of earnings, Goldman Sachs’ Amanda Sneider highlights 22 companies the firm expects to beat expectations.
Many of the expected beats are just by a penny or three, but there are a few companies Sneider expects to soundly beat street estimates.
Goldman sees healthcare giant McKesson reporting a profit of $2.65 per share against Wall Street’s current expectations for $2.36.
In the energy sector, Goldman also sees a number of companies beating expectations, notably CONSOL Energy, which the firm expects to report earnings per share of $0.37 against Street estimates for $0.26.
By sector, Goldman sees the most earnings beats coming from the Information Technology, Consumer Discretionary, Financial, and Energy sectors.

My friend lost 7lbs in a month. He had to because he’s a sailor and needed to participate in a race. He did four things:
+ He gave up bread.
+ He gave up cheese.
+ He ate healthy, like sushi for lunch.
+ He bought an activity monitor and made sure he walked 10,000 steps a day. For a full guide to activity trackers, which include:

CHECK. CHECK. CHECK. When IBM had THINK, we had CHECK.
+ Check that at Fidelity can get my warrants exercised. (They can’t. But they wasted three days screwing around.)
+ Check the payments we sent to the IRS went to the right address. They didn’t. Two months later, the envelope came back “address unknown.” We’ll be hit with a penalty. Yuch.
+ Check that you never drive on a shoulder or stop too close to the curb. It’s full of broken glass and nails. $560 later, my tires are now repaired. (That mess happened Sunday.)
+ Check that the implant you give Harry will stick. Walking around toothless does not a good impression make. Bad for business. Harry’s Susan has not threatened divorce, yet. Another few months of toothless and she might. Justifiably.

Yogi said you can’t think and hit the ball at the same time. Boy, is he right.

If you own an apartment in New York City, now is a good time to sell it. Everywhere you turn, they’ll building. Soon there’ll be too many apartments flooding the market and prices will fall. But for now, it’s a sellers’ market. People are selling their apartments for more than they asked. It’s a frenzy.
