PBRMarketTools reviews summaries from the most recently released The PBR1000 Snapshots and those from one and two calendar years earlier to produce some analytics to help understand what is happening in this unique set of companies. This is the October 2021 edition.

*Note: All companies on The PBR1000 with a fiscal year ending August 2021 filed their annual 10-K reports with the US Securities and Exchange Commission by October 29, 2021, from which most of this financial data is derived.

Some observations:

Revenues: Retailers, hospitality, and travel related industries have been significantly adversely affected during the pandemic. On the other hand e-commerce, communications technologies, and healthcare industries were beneficiaries. The bottom line is that revenues fell only 2.69% from 2019 to 2020, but for the last 12 months through July 2021 indications are that a recovery is in progress. But profits, earnings per share, and to some extent dividends were significantly impacted. While there were negative and positive shifts in revenues, the bottom line is that it was almost a wash. Of course, these numbers and analytics reflect The PBR1000, the largest publicly held corporations in the US. Smaller businesses certainly were much more affected.

Stock Market: The stock market, which was in a long term bull market, took some big hits at the beginning of the pandemic. But as the analytics show, the recovery was also very dramatic, one of the best years for equities investors. The Average Weighted Analyst Estimates shows an uptick and there was a nice growth in the number of Buy stocks.

Some Conclusions:

There was a shift and rebalancing of revenues in The PBR1000, with the total effect much less dramatic than for most smaller and midsize businesses.

The initial panic over the pandemic had a big effect on the stock market, but it recovered quite nicely. As industries that were the most negatively affected recover there should continue to be significant growth opportunities as the “new normal” sets in, the economy should have robust growth, the usual profits and earnings per share levels will return, and The Stock Market Bull should continue to dominate. The new caveats are recent supply logistics challenges, plentiful jobs available but not being filled, possible impacts of future COVID-19 variants, unpredictability of climate change, other unforeseen natural disasters, the takeover of the White House by a small well-trained group of Maori warriors, an accidental start of a nuclear war, Tom Brady and LeBron James retiring from professional sports, a large undetected rogue asteroid striking earth, an attack by extraterrestrial forces, an unexpected explosion of the sun, and the second coming of Jesus Christ, to name just a few.
