However, the growth will be measured from a period when much of the economy had been brought to a standstill from the pandemic as consumers retreated and some businesses saw steep declines in revenue. Analysts expect businesses constrained by the pandemic and economic slowdown, like the financial and industrial sectors, to more than double their profits from the same period in 2020.\n\nAlso, forecasts have drifted higher in recent months, helped by an unusually large number of companies advising investors that they expect earnings to come in higher than analysts had been estimating.\n“The reason for that is simple: The speed and robustness of the recovery is greater today than everyone anticipated three months ago,” said Hal Reynolds, chief investment officer at Los Angeles Capital Management.\nIt is more common for companies to try to lower expectations as they head into a reporting season.\nFederal Reserve officials at the central bank’s June policy meeting suggested theymight need to dial back their supportfor the economy earlier than expected because growth has been so strong.\n\nAt the same time, investors in recent days have been considering the threat that labor shortages, supply-chain bottlenecks and thehighly contagious Delta variantof the coronavirus might pose to their rosy economic outlooks.\nA rally in ultrasafe government bonds pushed the yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury notebelow 1.3% last week, settling Thursday at its lowest level since February.
