Analyst Update: Stocks Hitting New High on Quarterly Earnings

Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA®  

Snapping two-day long winning streak, the U.S. benchmark indices ended lower on Wednesday as the European Central Bank (ECB) tightened restrictions on Greece's bailout and as oil prices retreated after four consecutive sessions. While the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended almost flat for the day, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite indexes finished lower by 0.42% and 0.23%, respectively. The ECB on Wednesday said that it would no longer accept junk-rated Greece government debt as collateral for loans. The move came as a huge blow to the Greece's new government which has been seeking to renegotiate the terms of bailout with its lenders. Meanwhile, European stocks rose for the third straight session on Wednesday, helped by rise in the health care stocks and the Greece market which also overshadowed the decline in energy stocks. Asian stocks mostly ended higher on Wednesday, tracking gains in the European and the US markets.

Shares of the IT services provider Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp. (Cognizant) jumped to a new 52-week high on Wednesday after the Company reported better-than-expected fourth quarter 2014 results. Helped by strong growth in Healthcare segment, Cognizant's total revenues for the quarter jumped 16.4% YoY to $2.74 billion, beating the $2.66 billion average of analysts' estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Continue reading about Cognizant's fourth quarter results and its current year outlook in our exclusive research report.

The Walt Disney Company (Walt Disney) reported first quarter fiscal 2015 net income that beat the market expectations, helped by the Company's blockbuster animated film "Frozen" which boosted results in its home entertainment segment, and also as guest volumes at its U.S theme parks increased.
