To say investors what is coming is a normal part of doing business. But with the price chaos sown throughout the economy, many large companies “suspend completely”.
American companies wade in uncertain waters, stuck in an uncomfortable method of waiting until it becomes clear if Trump large reciprocal prices – that he suspended for 90 days from April – will actually occur.
This uncertainty results in many companies suspended the advice, which means that they have temporarily delayed or interrupted the publication of their profits. This is not an excellent sign for the general state of the world – back in COVVI -19 locking, many companies suspended their advice because they did not want to disclose inaccurate information as the crisis was taking place.
The suspension of the advice poses challenges for analysts, who are based strongly on the issue of forecast companies. And advice is a good bell tower for the way companies expect the economy.
The same goes for Trump’s Trump’s trade war, which leaves companies that do not know if they will have to revise their whole commercial models with its constantly evolving titles.
Other companies have reduced or updated their adviceThe first suspicion of Trump’s effects of the trade war on the prospects of the economy.
The automaker Stellantis, the parent company of brands like Jeep and Dodge, suspended its profitable growth forecasts this year, affirming on Wednesday that it was too difficult to define the impacts of “evolving” tariff policies. This announcement followed the comments of General Motors, who said on Tuesday that he was no longer held behind his advice for higher profits in 2025, because he did not take into account potential pricing impacts. And even the faithful German Mercedes-Benz said that she would suspend her advice.
In Tech, the actions of the Snap social media platform plunged up to 14% on Tuesday when she announced that she was retaining advice in the second quarter. The company has blamed uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment which has an impact on advertising demand.
And it is over time of post-paidmal revenge trips. American Airlines, Delta, Southwest and Alaska Air have all drawn their financial advice for the year due to swirling uncertainty.
CEO of Delta Air Lines Ed Bastian warned The American economy could fall into a recession, as the airline Legacy has announced that “growth has been widely blocked”.
“We believe that it is above all our customers most sensitive to prices, for whom travel is the most discretionary,” he said.
Last week, the vice-president of American Airlines Steve Johnson too Low -income Americans told analysts fly less.
And although not all companies suspend their advice, uncertainty does not warn that it could do so in the near future. UPS, for example, said he would not let his advice abandon his advice at the moment, but warned that he could do it soon.
“There is so much uncertainty in the back half (of the year), because all these (prices) will finally have an impact on the American consumer,” said Carol Tome, CEO of the UPS. “The current feeling of consumers is down from the place where it was at the start of the year. (But) the consumer is still quite healthy. ”
It is a “huge affair” when companies take advice, said Paul Beland, CFRA World Manager in CNN.
“This considerably increases uncertainty and that is something that we see a lot,” he said, referring to indicators as the feeling of consumers.
And although the assessments are still high for S&P 500 companies, expectations of their profits have dropped in the past 6 months, he said.
There are parallels between the retracted advice at the height of the COVVI -19 pandemic and now – like the pandemic, the prices create a tensioning chain impact difficult to predict.
But while the federal reserve printed more money and the government issued recovery checks during the pandemic era, “we simply do not have this Fed safety cover to come to the rescue” This time, according to Beland.
Now, “we have a government that tries to do it is better to lower the deficit and we have a federal reserve that still fights against inflation,” said Beland.
