The global economy remains unpredictable, despite the recovery waves so, arising from the lingering trade and currency wars now threatening to erode international investors confidence, growth and capital flow.
Back home, there is the political risk and unfriendly international policies emanating from some developed countries, which are hampering growth, even as crude oil price soars nearer the projected $100 per barrel mark.
We expect investors and analysts to interpret the recent scorecards from first-tier banking stocks and other sectors, while repositioning their portfolios ahead of the Q3 earnings season this month.
Traders and investors who understand the dynamics of the stock market and the importance of combining fundamental and technical analysis in making investment decisions should utilize the opportunity of the current pullback to position in some sectors for short, medium and long-term gains.
Sectors that should attract attention for juicy returns this last quarter include: Insurance, conglomerates, Aviation services providers, banking, agribusiness, building material, construction, oil and gas after a careful study of the recent price pattern and fundamental data available in the market ahead of Q3 earnings season in October. This is a very important season in the stock market cycle for taking final investment decisions as numbers expected would give insight into what the full-year figures could look like.
While risk factors remain on the horizon, we are optimistic of an impending bullish streak in the market as equities near trough points. We advise investors to be on standby as we perceive that a turning point is imminent, whilst echoing our long term focus on fundamentally sound stocks with attractive entry prices and prospects of, at least, double digit upside potentials
What To Expect In October and beyond
• The earnings reports expected in October will make impact on the share prices if the numbers beat investors expectations, as quarterly account has a 30-day time frame for submission of their unaudited Q3 results (in October and beyond as interim dividend paying companies).
• Volatility of equity prices will continue owing to repositioning of portfolios along the line of positive numbers and profit taking, ahead of October earnings season, party primaries and Santa Claus rally
• Market outlook for the new month and quarter remains mixed as many quarterly and few full year financials are expected. But expect mixed sentiment and weak momentum as the market expects the economy to recover, amidst electoral spending, just as the low interest rate to manufacturers and farmers will strengthens the market. This will however depend also on how well the government implements the 2018 budget faithfully.
