If you aren’t reading Bespoke’s research work (http:\/\/www.bespokepremium.com\/), you are missing out on some excellent and thorough research at a very reasonable price.<\/p>\n

In their weekly Bespoke Report, the Bespoke research team takes readers through market, economic, sentiment and technical data from the last week.<\/p>\n

Last night, while reviewing Thomson Reuter’s quarterly earnings data for Q1 ’15 and through Q1 ’16, here is how expected Energy earnings growth rates<\/strong> <\/em>have tracked according to the This Week in Earnings<\/strong><\/em> Report:<\/p>\n

(The first column (percentage) is the expected growth rate as of May 22, 2015, while the 2nd column in the expected growth rate as of April 1′, ’15):<\/p>\n

Q1 ’16: +20.2%, +46.3%<\/p>\n

q4 ’15: -39.4%, -36.9%<\/p>\n

Q3 ’15: -58.7%, -58.6%<\/p>\n

Q2 ’15: -63.6%, -64.6%<\/p>\n

Q1 ’15: -57.9%, -63.7%<\/p>\n

Per the weekly Thomson Reuters data, with 41 of 41 Energy companies having reported their Q1 ’15 earnings, you can how the Energy expected earnings growth rates have stabilized over the last 7 weeks.<\/p>\n

That may not seem like much for readers, for the first stretch since last September, the forward quarter’s Energy earnings rates are getting “less negative”.<\/p>\n

Here are some fundamental points noted in Bespoke’s weekly Bespoke Report dated May 22 (regarding oil and Energy)<\/p>\n
