Earnings? What are they, Grandad?

Richard Bull  | 27 April 2020  The 9-minute lunch test…  Dear Reader,   “From the point of ordering to being delivered and actually on my plate took nine minutes.”   That was how long it took Tim Price to get his lunch one day last week.   In the midst of a nationwide lockdown and global panedemic.     For Tim it was a lesson in how capitalism should work.   The editor of The Price Report joins Boaz Shoshan for today’s market broadcast which takes a long hard look at earnings.   A lot of companies will be announcing their earnings or lack of them this week.   And Tim firmly believes earnings is the best way to look at stock markets.   He also remembers when companies had to make a profit.   Despite Covid-19 being the perfect stress test of a good business model - he points to Amazon in particular and his Deliveroo experience as companies, quite literally in the last instance, stepping up to the plate…   The unleashing of free money and everyone getting handouts could muddy already uncertain waters.    Tim’s advice: split your stocks into green, amber and red…   You can find out why and how by listening here.   You’ll also discover a good word for gold too.   Best,   Richard Bull Southbank Investment Research
