Analyst Update: Proposals, Consumer Confidence Results, Financial results, and Upcoming Events

Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA®  

The US benchmark equity indices closed lower on Tuesday as weaker-than-expected growth in February US vehicle sales and a criticized speech by the Israeli Prime minister, dampened traders mood. The S&P 500 fell 9.61 points, or 0.45%, to end at 2,107.78, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 85.26 points or 0.47% to 18,203.37. The tech-heavy NASDAQ was down 28.2 points or 0.56% to close at 4,979.90. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized the White House's attempts to reach a nuclear deal with Iran, saying it was a "bad deal." Meanwhile, most of Europe's benchmark stock indices closed lower on Tuesday, as investors took to profit booking. The fall comes in the face of better than expected German retail sales report, which showed unexpected accelerated growth in January. Germany's DAX 30 fell 130.0 points or 1.14% to 11,280.36, and Eurostoxx 50 was lower 41.98 points or 1.17% to 3,549.11. France's CAC 40 declined 48.07 points or 0.98% to 4,869.25.

MSCI Inc announced that the leading provider of investment decision support tools worldwide will consult with the investment community on potential enhancements to the MSCI Islamic Index Series Methodology. Enhancement proposals for consideration include: clarification of prohibited activities in the business activity screening to include interest income; and clarification of total earnings in the computation of the dividend adjustment factor.

Nielsen Holding N.V. (Nielsen) reported that Global Consumer Confidence of 96 in Q4 2014 was down two points over the previous quarter. While confidence fell slightly in every region in the fourth quarter from the previous quarter, year-over-year, the index is still above a pre-recession level of 94 from third-quarter 2007, according to a new study by Nielsen.

PowerSecure International, Inc. (PowerSecure International) will release its fourth quarter and full-year 2014 earnings after the market closes on Wednesday, March 4, 2015. The earnings release will be followed by a conference call, which will be webcast at 5:30 p.m. ET.
