The S&P 500 rose more than 2% yesterday to close at a new all-time high, and as shown below, yesterday’s move pushed most areas of the US equity market up into extreme overbought territory.

Similar to the Nasdaq 100, yesterday was also the first time the S&P 500 had a one-day gain of at least 2% to close at a new all-time high since March 21st, 2000!

The green dots below show the 21 prior times the S&P had a 2%+ gain and closed at an all-time high since 1952.  Yep, there have only been 21 prior occurrences over the last 70+ years.

The S&P and Nasdaq are both set to open at all-time highs this morning, but most notable is Japan’s Nikkei 225, which finally made a new all-time high after 34+ years!

After the Great Depression in the US, the S&P went 25 years without making a new all-time high, and Japan’s equity market beat that streak by nearly 10 years.  As shown below, once the S&P finally did make that all-time high in the mid-1950s, it would go on to double in rather short order.

The Triple Play Report — 2/21/24

An earnings triple play is a stock that reports earnings and manages to 1) beat analyst EPS estimates, 2) beat analyst sales estimates, and 3) raise forward guidance.  You can read more about “triple plays” at Investopedia.com where they’ve given Bespoke credit for popularizing the term.  We like triple plays as an indication that a company’s business is firing on all cylinders, with better-than-expected results and an improving outlook.  A triple play is indicative of positive “fundamental momentum” instead of pure fundamentals, and there are always plenty of names with both high and low valuations on our quarterly list.

Bespoke’s Triple Play Report highlights companies that have recently reported earnings triple plays, and it features commentary from management on triple-play conference calls, company descriptions and analysis, and price charts.  Bespoke’s Triple Play Report is available at the Bespoke Institutional level only.  You can sign up for Bespoke Institutional now and receive a 14-day trial to read this week’s Triple Play Report, which features 28 new stocks.  To sign up, choose either the monthly or annual checkout link below:

Nova (NVMI) is an example of a company that reported an earnings triple play recently.

NVMI has an impressive earnings history, as shown in the snapshot below from our Earnings Explorer. The company has topped EPS and revenue estimates in each of its last 25 earnings reports. The streak of EPS beats goes back even further to 39 consecutive reports. Supporting the strong earnings performance is the growing adoption of its metrology solutions across semiconductor manufacturing processes. You can read more about NVMI and the 27 other triple plays in our newest report by starting a Bespoke Institutional trial today.
