From Ticker Snnse

Yesterday, we highlighted how the S&P 500 as a whole is performing this earnings season.  Below we break it down by the ten major sectors.  As shown, health care and technology (which from the consensus has a lot to live up to) are beating estimates the most, while financials, consumer staples and industrials are beating the least.  Telecom shows that 100% have beaten estimates but that was based on just one company. 

We also look at how the stocks within the sectors are reacting to earnings beats and misses.  Materials and technology stocks have had the largest one-day gains on earnings beats, while health care, materials and energy stocks that miss are getting pummeled.

Be sure to check back weekly for updates.
