1 Oct
Summary
- European blue-chip earnings expected to rise 19.4% year-on-year.
- Energy sector is the primary driver of Q3 profit growth.

Analysts project a robust 19.4% year-on-year increase in third-quarter earnings for Europe's blue-chip companies. This substantial growth is primarily attributed to strong performance within the energy sector.
Despite this overall positive outlook, the rate of growth is anticipated to decelerate compared to the second quarter. For companies outside the energy industry, the STOXX 600 is expected to see earnings grow by 9.9%.
Within the non-energy sectors, cyclical consumer product manufacturers are forecast to experience the highest growth. The technology sector has seen a significant upward revision, with analysts now predicting a 23.8% increase in earnings, a considerable jump from the previously forecasted 13.1%.
