Saturday April 3, 12:02 pm Eastern Time It's Time To Think Earnings Again Leading the list of first-quarter earnings winners will be technology companies, expected to rise 37 percent, said analyst Joseph Abbott of I/B/E/S Inc., a provider of corporate earnings information based in New York. ''They were hurt first by the Asian crisis and now they're recovering first,'' he said. Earnings at big Internet companies like America Online and Yahoo will also be higher, Abbott said. Telecommunications profits are expected to be up 25 percent as companies benefit from Internet business and deregulation of the long-distance industry, said Chuck Hill, an analyst at First Call Inc. Earnings at consumer durable goods manufacturers should rise about 15 percent from last year, Abbott said. Most of that gain will come from auto companies. biz.yahoo.com
