Earnings Margins Expected by Sector, with real estate and tech with the higher margins.

I calculated myself based on Refinitiv numbers, probably not going to be the same as if we calculate it company by company.

Nine sectors have positive earnings growth contribution, led by Information Technology, Health Care, and Communication Services.


The Magnificent Seven group — Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and Tesla has a market cap weight of 31.5% compared to earnings and revenue weights of 19.4% and 10.8%, respectively. The Mag-7 has an aggregate forward four-quarter P/E of 29.6x, a 38% premium to the overall index. When excluding the Mag-7, the forward P/E declines to 19.0x.
