<\/b><\/p>\n

Third quarter report season is \u201coff to a good start\u201d. Reports released to date generally have recorded higher than consensus results (notably by the U.S. money center banks). Analysts were prompted to raise estimates. Revenue and earnings gains on a year-over-year basis are projected to accelerate in the fourth quarter. The stage is set for a recovery in North American equity markets until at least the beginning of 2024.<\/p>\n
