Ericsson Stock Looks Unlikely To Sustain Its Earnings Driven Outperformance
Ericsson stock (NASDAQ: ERIC) is up 12% in the past month, outperforming the S&P 500 which was up 7.9% over this period. If you look at the change over the last ten days, too, the stock has returned 10%, performing much better than the broader markets. Ericsson’s most recent Q3 ’22 earnings, saw revenue rising from $5.29 billion in Q3 ’21 to $6.39 billion in Q3 ’22. However, with rising operating costs, the company reported lower operating margins of 10.5%, down from 15.7% for Q3 ’21. Due to this, the company’s net earnings dropped, and EPS came in lower at $0.15, compared to $0.16 in Q3 ’21.
Now, is Ericsson stock set to continue its outperformance or could we expect a pullback? We believe that there is a weak 43% chance of a rise in ERIC stock over the next month (21 trading days) based on our machine learning analysis of trends in the stock price over the last ten years.
