STOCKS TO WATCH
Results
Anthem Inc: The company beat Wall Street estimates for second-quarter profit and marginally raised its 2021 earnings target, as the health insurer reported lower-than-expected medical costs despite a rebound in demand for non-COVID healthcare services. The company said it expected to earn over $25.50 adjusted earnings per share this year, compared to its previous estimate of over $25.10. Anthem said its benefit expense ratio worsened to 86.8% in the second quarter, from 77.9% a year earlier. Analysts on average expected 87.78%, according Refinitiv IBES data. Excluding items, Anthem earned $7.03 per share in the quarter ended June 30, ahead of the average analyst estimate of $6.33 per share.

ASML Holding NV: ASML hiked its 2021 sales outlook and announced a new share buyback, as orders for its equipment soared amid a global computer chip shortage. "Everybody is working extremely hard, us and our suppliers, to actually produce ... more machines," Chief Executive Officer Peter Wennink said. "It's all driven by basically what we are seeing today which is the digital revolution." ASML, which reported second quarter net profit up 38% at 1.02 billion euros, lifted its 2021 sales growth outlook to 35%. It said it would buy back 9 billion euros worth of its own shares by the end of 2022, replacing its almost finished 6 billion euro buyback launched last year.

Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc: The company beat estimates for earnings and comparable quarterly sales on Tuesday but warned that higher beef and freight costs will offset the benefit of menu prices hikes in the near term. In the current quarter, commodity costs and staffing shortages at suppliers will mostly cancel out the 3.5% to 4% menu price increase originally implemented to pay for higher wages, Chief Financial Officer Jack Hartung said in a call with analysts. "It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that Q3 is going to be challenged by several industry-wide issues," Hartung said. Excluding one-time items, the company posted earnings per share of $7.46 for the second quarter ended June 30, crushing estimates of $6.52. Chipotle said it expects third-quarter sales growth in the low to mid double-digits range, compared with estimates of 9.7%. Net income was about $188 million, or $6.60 per share, for the quarter, compared with $8.2 million, or 29 cents per share, a year earlier.

Harley-Davidson Inc: The U.S. motorcycle maker reported a better-than-expected quarterly profit, as it benefited from its focus on selling high-margin touring and cruiser bikes under a new turnaround plan. The company said its shipments doubled to 56,700 units in the second quarter. "We are starting to see the initial proof points as we execute our Hardwire Strategy," Chief Executive Officer Jochen Zeitz said.Net profit was $206.3 million, or $1.33 per share, in the quarter ended June 27, compared with a loss of $92.2 million, or 60 cents, a year earlier. On an adjusted basis, Harley earned $1.41 per share in the quarter, beating analysts' average estimate of $1.17 per share, according to IBES data from Refinitiv. Revenue from motorcycles and related products nearly doubled to $1.33 billion.

Johnson & Johnson: The company forecast just $2.5 billion in 2021 sales of its COVID-19 vaccine, which has fallen way behind rival shots from Pfizer and Moderna as the company deals with vaccine production issues and safety concerns. J&J said it expects full-year sales of $91.3 billion-$92.1 billion this year from the rest of the business, and $93.8 billion to $94.6 billion including contribution from the single-dose vaccine. Pfizer has forecast $26 billion in sales of its vaccine, while has forecast $19.2 billion in vaccine sales this year. Both were approved in the United States last year, while the J&J shot was approved this year. Both companies have said they expect to profit from their vaccines, while Johnson & Johnson has said it will make the vaccine available on a not-for-profit basis during the pandemic.

Lithia Motors Inc: The auto retailer followed larger rival AutoNation in reporting a record quarterly profit, boosted by strong demand for personal transportation amid low availability of vehicles. The company's sales and average gross profit for new vehicles surged 130% and 58%, respectively. Sales from used vehicles nearly doubled, with average gross profit jumping 47%. "With 40% of our targeted $20 billion revenue acquired in the first year of our 5-year plan, we are well ahead of schedule and are only getting started," CEO Bryan DeBoer said. For the quarter, its net income rose nearly four-fold to $304.9 million. On an adjusted basis, it earned $11.12 per share, beating analysts' estimate of $6.17, according to Refinitiv data, while its record revenue of $6.01 billion also surpassed estimates.

Netflix Inc: The company said it would make a deeper dive into video games as the movie and TV streaming service projected weak subscriber growth amid growing competition and the lifting of pandemic restrictions that had kept people at home. In the United States and Canada, Netflix reported losing about 430,000 subscribers in the second quarter, only its third quarterly decline in 10 years. "Netflix delivered another underwhelming quarter as competition in the streaming space heats up," said Investing.com senior analyst Jesse Cohen. "The absence of any new looming growth catalysts has been one of the main reasons for Netflix’s relatively mild performance this year." Earnings for April through June came in at $2.97 per share, below the average forecast of $3.16. If its subscriber forecast pans out, Netflix will have added more than 54 million subscribers over the past two years, a pace consistent with its annual additions before the COVID-19 pandemic, the company said.

Novartis AG: The Swiss drugmaker beat second-quarter sales and profit expectations, while keeping its 2021 guidance unchanged, as disruption from the coronavirus pandemic waned. Finance chief Harry Kirsch told reporters that the pandemic was still weighing, for instance, on cancer patients' diagnostic rates, which crimped sales of products sold via hospitals. He estimated business was probably averaging 80-90% of pre-COVID levels, with strong divergences by category and country. Novartis boosted core net profit by a fifth to $3.72 billion. Core operating income rose 18% to $4.35 billion. Sales in the three months through June rose 14% to $12.96 billion, a gain of 9% when stripping out currency fluctuations.

Qualtrics International Inc: The company’s shares rose on Tuesday after it forecast full-year 2021 sales and losses that beat analyst expectations as more companies rely on its software to gather and use feedback from their customers. Qualtrics forecast a full-year sales range with a midpoint of $1 billion and adjusted losses with a midpoint of 1 cent per share, compared with analyst estimates of $983.8 million in shares and an adjusted loss of 11 cents per share, according to data from Refinitiv. Qualtrics said it expects third-quarter revenue and adjusted losses to have midpoints of $258 million and 2 cents per share, compared with analyst estimates of $246.6 million and 5 cent per share adjusted loss, according to Refinitiv data. For the just-ended second quarter, sales and adjusted profits were $249.3 million and 4 cents per share, compared with Refinitiv estimates of $241.63 and a 2 cent per share adjusted loss.

SAP SE: Shares in the company fell, with investors disappointed that the German business software group's revenue and profit outlook had not been lifted further. SAP said it expected cloud revenue to grow by 15%-18% in the year, helping overall cloud and software revenue gain by 2%-3%. Operating profit was forecast in a range from unchanged to 4% lower for 2021. Adjusted revenue, up 3% at constant currency to 6.67 billion euros in the quarter, was in line with median estimates of analysts compiled by Refinitiv. Operating profit, up 3% at 1.92 billion euros, was ahead of the median view. Adjusted earnings per share rose 50% to 1.75 euros, with Chief Financial Officer Luka Mucic highlighting SAP's profitable venture capital investments. SAP lifted its forecast for cloud and software revenue for the full year by 200 million euros to 23.6 billion-24 billion euros, while it now sees operating profit at 7.95 billion-8.25 billion euros - up 150 million euros at the lower boundary.

United Airlines Holdings Inc: The company reported its sixth consecutive quarterly loss on Tuesday due to the coronavirus pandemic, though revenue quadrupled from a year ago and topped estimates with a strong domestic travel rebound. United said it will continue ramping up flying in the third quarter and forecast its total unit revenue for the period will be higher than the same quarter in 2019, a turning point for the airline. The company said business and long-haul international travel, to which it is more exposed than rivals, accelerated faster than anticipated, and it expects a full recovery in demand by 2023. United's adjusted net loss narrowed to $1.26 billion, or $3.91 per share, in the quarter, from $2.6 billion, or $9.31 per share, a year ago. Analysts had estimated a loss of $3.94, according to IBES data from Refinitiv.

Apple Inc: The company will release from next year only 5G-enabled iPhones and will revamp its budget handset after for the first time in two years, Nikkei reported, citing sources familiar with the matter. It will start selling a 5G version of iPhone SE in the first half of 2022, the report said, adding that the budget iPhone will be powered by its A15 processor and its 5G connectivity will be enabled by Qualcomm’s X60 modem chip. Apple will not introduce an updated version of its iPhone Mini next year, after it failed to become popular among consumers, the report said.

AmerisourceBergen Corp, Cardinal Health Inc, Johnson & Johnson and McKesson Corp: With a $26 billion nationwide settlement in sight over claims that the three largest U.S. drug distributors and Johnson & Johnson helped fuel a nationwide opioid epidemic, state and local governments will soon turn their attention to pharmacies and a handful of drugmakers. U.S. state attorneys general are expected to unveil a settlement proposal this week with distributors McKesson, Cardinal Health and AmerisourceBergen contributing a combined $21 billion, while Johnson & Johnson would pay $5 billion. The ultimate settlement price-tag could fluctuate depending on how many state and local governments agree to the deal or reject it to pursue litigation on their own.

The board considered what it called "the importance of Mr. Dimon's continuing, long-term stewardship" when approving the reward, which is structured in a way intended to encourage continued good performance.

Nvidia blijft vliegen, Nasdaq zet nieuwe high neer

Nvidia mag een en ander lev­eren aan Chi­na, eerder voerde de regering Trump in april een ver­bod in op de verkoop van de Nvidia H2O AI-chips aan Chi­na. Dat voelde als een ver­rass­ing die de aan­de­lenko­ersen meteen fors onder druk zette. Deze maa­tregel kostte het bedri­jf al zo’n 2,5 mil­jard dol­lar aan…

De dreiging met nieuwe tarieven doet de markt voorlopig nog niks

Beste beleggers,

Vanaf vandaag komen er bedrijven met kwartaalcijfers, vooral naar de banken JPMorgan, Citigroup, Blackrock en Wells Fargo zal men uitkijken. Morgen voor de start zal ook ASML met cijfers komen en dat kan zwaar wegen op de AEX index. We krijgen vanmiddag ook inflatiecijfers uit de VS, men zal benieuwd zijn naar het CPI cijfer waar men uitgaat van 0,3% op maandbasis en van 2,6% op jaarbasis. Wall Street wist de dreiging met nieuwe tarieven richting Europa en Mexico totaal te negeren en sloot zelfs positief. Europa werd meegetrokken omhoog met de hoop dat het wel mee zal vallen met de tarieven later deze maand. Het is ook een manier van Trump om de markten kunstmatig hoog te houden zou je denken. Aan de andere kant lijkt het me vrijwel onmogelijk om de waarderingen nog hoger te krijgen, op een gegeven moment zal men beseffen dat er iets niet goed zit. Daarom blijf ik ervoor waarschuwen dat er in no-time tot 10% van de indices af kan, ook dat zal dan zeer snel gaan helaas ...

Aanbieding signaaldiensten:
We hebben in de loop van vorige week 2 posities op limiet kunnen opnemen, dat waren Nvidia en de AEX. Nvidia blijft wel met risico maar door die 4 biljoen dollar grens denk ik dat het wel een goed momentum is.

Dinsdag 15 juli 2025:
De futures op Wall Street geven een hogere opening aan vanmorgen, de S&P 500 future staan zo'n 0,35% in de plus, terwijl Nasdaq 100 future zo'n 0,5% hoger uitkomt. De Dow Jones future geeft een 0,1% hogere opening aan.

De AEX future laat een winst van 0,7% zien voorbeurs, de DAX future staat ongeveer 0,4% hoger.

Voor beleggers moet het kwartaalcijferseizoen een antwoord geven op de vraag over hoe de tarieven de winsten beïnvloeden. Economen van Goldman Sachs schatten dat consumenten 70% van de directe kosten van de tarieven zullen absorberen.

Verder verwachten analisten volgens FactSet dat de winsten van de bedrijven binnen de S&P 500 in het tweede kwartaal met 4,8% zijn gestegen. Dat zou meteen de laagste groei zijn sinds 2023. In het eerste kwartaal kwam de gemiddelde winstgroei nog uit op 13%.

Het meest vreemde van alles is dat de S&P 500 op recordniveau staat. Ook de Nasdaq en de Nasdaq 100 tikken vandaag via de futures opnieuw een record aan.

Nvidia en cijfers deze week:
Het gesprek van vorige week was natuurlijk dat Nvidia de week boven de 4 biljoen dollar grens afsloot als eerste bedrijf ooit. In de nacht kwam er een bericht dat het bedrijf weer garanties heeft gekregen van de Amerikaanse regering dat de H20 kunstmatige intelligentie chip weer mag worden verkocht in China. Dat komt nadat CEO Jensen Huang een ontmoeting had met president Donald Trump.

Verder krijgen we deze week een reeks kwartaalcijfers, vandaag komen er al enkele grote banken met hun cijfers. Wat betreft de AEX komt zwaargewicht ASML morgen (woensdag) voorbeurs met cijfers.

Hieronder ziet u via het overzicht de belangrijke kwartaalcijfers die er deze week komen, verder ziet u ook dat er enkele belangrijke economische cijfers komen zoals de CPI (vandaag) en de PPI (morgen).

Marktoverzicht:
Europa sluit vrijdag lager, de AEX verloor 0,1% en sluit op 920,5 punten terwijl de CAC 40 de sessie met 0,27% verlies afsloot. De DAX sluit met 0,4% verlies.

Op Wall Street zien we een positieve sessie, de Dow Jones won 0,2% terwijl de S&P 500 met 0,15% winst de sessie afsloot. De Nasdaq won 0,27% terwijl de Nasdaq 100 met 0,33% winst sluit. De SOX index daarentegen sluit met 0,87% verlies.

De indicatie van de markt voorbeurs:

  • Europa zal volgens de futures hoger openen
  • De futures op Wall Street staan hoger
  • De beurzen in Azië sluiten wat verdeeld
  • De Hang Seng staat 1% hoger
  • China zien we vanmorgen zo'n 0,4% lager
  • De Nikkei index staat zo'n 0,45% hoger
  • De VIX-index staat vanmorgen rond de 19,1
  • De euro/dollar komt uit rond de 1,168 dollar
  • De 10 jaar rente in de VS komt uit rond de 4,43%
  • De goudprijs komt vanmorgen uit rond de 3.370 dollar
  • Voor een vat Brent olie betaalt men nu 70,5 dollar
  • Bitcoin komt vanmorgen uit op 116.900 dollar

DAX analyse:

Wat betreft de DAX zien we nog steeds wat winstnemingen, de index moet terug tot onder de steunlijn onder de bodems. Het slot komt nu uit op 24.160 punten.

Weerstand nu de 24.250 en 24.400 punten, later de 24.600, 24.750 en 25.000 punten. Steun nu eerst rond de 24.050 en de 23.900 punten als steun voor de DAX. Verder letten we op de 23.825 punten als steun, daar komt het 50-daags gemiddelde uit.

Nasdaq 100 analyse:

Bij de Nasdaq 100 blijft nog altijd hangen rond de topzone, we zien daar al meerdere keren een test, de top komt uit rond de 22.915 punten.

Steun eerst rond de 22.750 punten, later steun rond de 22.650, 22.500 en rond de 22.250 punten. De index blijft nog altijd ruim boven zowel het 50-daags en 200-daags gemiddelde.

Weerstand nu de topzone rond de topzone die uitkomt rond de 22.915 punten, later weerstand rond de 23.000 en 23.150 punten. Dan hebben we het al over nieuwe records.
