CNBC market analyst Jim Cramer outlined the critical financial events and earnings disclosures anticipated in the upcoming week, spotlighting oil and gas companies such as Coterra Energy Inc. CTRA and Diamondback Energy, Inc. FANG, which are expected to share their financial performance.
While reflecting on the recent market trends, Cramer predicted the incoming week might not mirror the robust performance witnessed in the past days. However, it presents an opening for continued optimism among investors if interest rates remain stable — a “bullish herd to continue to thunder.”
Earnings Spotlight
The beginning of the week will see Cramer closely examining earnings from Coterra and Diamondback Energy. He expressed a particular fondness for these entities within the oil and gas industry.
The scrutiny will then shift to Emerson Electric EMR and beverage company Celsius CELH on Tuesday. Devon Energy Corporation DVN and Occidental Petroleum Corporation OXY are also expected to release earnings on Tuesday. Cramer highlighted a more positive outlook for Occidental, noting that as long as the legendary investor Warren Buffett continues to build his stake in the company, it could spell profits for its shareholders.
The midweek attention will turn to Warner Bros Discovery WBD, with Cramer noting the necessity for the company to demonstrate sustained debt reduction and fresh content offerings, while highlighting his confidence in CEO David Zaslov.
Additionally, Cramer said he anticipates insights from Kellanova K, while monitoring the snack sector‘s pulse in the face of rising anti-obesity drug popularity.
A post-market report from Walt Disney Company DIS is also on the radar, with Cramer underscoring the importance of Disney revealing solid strategic partnerships.
As the week progresses, Trade Desk TTD is expected to announce its quarterly results on Thursday, which Cramer said could be satisfactory.
However, Cramer’s outlook is less hopeful for Illumina ILMN — he anticipated that lackluster figures could adversely affect related stocks such as Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc TMO and Danaher Corporation DHR.
Consumer Sentiment and Inflation: Concluding the week, the Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index will be in focus, which Cramer believes will shed light on the effectiveness of the Federal Reserve’s anti-inflationary measures.
