TORONTO/OTTAWA : Shares of Rogers Communications Inc and takeover target Shaw Communications fell yesterday as analysts voiced concerns over increased risk to the C$20 billion (RM68 billion) deal following last week''s 19-hour Rogers outage. Rogers suffered an unprecedented outage on Friday that affected nearly every facet of daily life in Canada as access to internet and phone services, both mobile and landline, was cut off. Some callers could not reach emergency services via 911 calls, police across Canada said. Yesterday, Canadian payment gateway Interac said it was adding another network provider to its system after the Rogers outage left millions of Canadians locked out of online payments. “We are adding a supplier (besides Rogers) to strengthen our existing network redundancy so Canadians can continue to rely on Interac daily,” Interac said in a statement. Rogers’ Canadian-listed shares fell 4.6% and Shaw dropped 4.3% to C$34.67, while the benchmark Canadian share index ended down 1.2%.
US equity earnings season starts on Thursday with financials. Many people are looking to economic data, technical levels or markets like bonds to determine if we''re at an inflection point. For me, the tell is always in sentiment. Markets always bottom well before the economic data as investors flee and pessimism reigns. The word ''recession'' is on the tip of everyone''s tongue and sentiment around Europe is brutal. If Russia cuts off European gas we could see a real rout but otherwise, there are signs that the worst is already priced in. For earnings season, no one believes the analyst numbers. Here''s a survey of institutional investors from Scotiabank. This earnings season will be a clear case of the difference between ''analyst expectations'' and ''what''s priced in'', with the latter being much more bearish. I think we got a preview at the start of the month when Micron took down its Q4 revenue guide to $7.2 billion, far short of the $9.15 billion consenus. What happened? Shares initially fell in the pre-market but the buyers quickly waded in and it closed above the openingi levels, then rallied the next day and has continued to climb.
