Morgan Stanley Maintains Equal-Weight on Archer-Daniels Midland, Lowers Price Target to $52

An &#8220;everything rally&#8221; powered Wall Street on Wednesday after the 2024 election results, with Donald Trump emerging as the clear presidential winner. The Republican Party reclaimed control of the Senate, while the House of Representatives leans Republican <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41778433/s-p-500-dow-hit-record-highs-after-trump-win-fear-index-drops-20">but remains undecided.</a>
The major U.S. equity indices – the S&amp;P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and Nasdaq 100 – surged to record highs in early trading, as investor optimism grew on expectations of more favorable tax policies. 
The S&amp;P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow posted gains of 2.3%, 2.4%, and 3.3%, respectively.
However, the real standouts were small caps and bank stocks, with investors turning to domestic businesses and U.S. banks in anticipation of potential tariff protections and further financial deregulation. 
The Russell 2000 jumped 5.5%, marking its largest single-day increase in two years. 
Large-cap bank stocks climbed 6%, while regional banks tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>) soared 13%—both seeing their biggest one-day gains since November 2020, when the first COVID-19 vaccine was announced.
Clean energy stocks were among the day's worst performers, with the Invesco Solar ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>) plunging 11% for its steepest drop since March 2020, as investors braced for potential rollbacks on green initiatives under the Trump administration.
In the foreign exchange market, the U.S. dollar initially rallied nearly 2% before paring gains to 1.4% as traders awaited a Federal Reserve interest rate cut on Thursday.
Treasury yields spiked as expectations rose for larger budget deficits under Republican fiscal policies and higher inflation due to potential tariffs. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed 14 basis points to 4.41%, reaching a four-month high.
Gold prices fell 2.8%, silver dropped over 4%, while natural gas rose 3.8%. Oil prices remained steady.
In the cryptocurrency market, risk appetite thrived, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rising over 8% to reach a record high of $75,000. Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) gained 10%, and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) surged 14%, the strongest performance among the top 10 cryptocurrencies.

Trump's Win Sends Indices To Record Highs; Financials, Small Caps Surge, Bitcoin Tops $75,000: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADM#NYSE">ADM</a>) shares are <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket" rel="noreferrer noopener">trading lower on Tuesday.</a>
Yesterday, the company reported third-quarter preliminary adjusted earnings per share of $1.09, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/b41733821/adm-reports-preliminary-third-quarter-2024-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">compared with street view of $1.25.</a>
The company will restate previously filed fiscal year 2023 Form 10-K and subsequent Forms 10-Q. The company said it has decided to postpone the webcast originally scheduled for November 5 at 9 a.m. Central Time.
The restated filings will include corrections for newly identified errors related to intersegment sales, will reflect the previously-corrected errors, and will provide disclosures applicable to restated segment information.
&#8220;Our third quarter operating results were mixed in a challenging quarter for the business,&#8221; said Chair of the Board and CEO Juan Luciano.
Archer-Daniels-Midland said net earnings are expected to be $18 million, with adjusted net earnings forecasted at $530 million. The company also anticipates a $461 million non-cash charge against GAAP earnings for the third quarter related to its Wilmar equity investment.
&#8220;We are taking the necessary actions to improve performance and drive continued value creation,&#8221; Luciano added.

Ag Services and Oilseeds (AS&amp;O) segment operating profit was $480 million during the third quarter of 2024, down 43% compared to the prior-year quarter. Carbohydrate Solutions segment operating profit was $452 million for the third quarter of 2024, down 3% compared to the prior year period. Nutrition segment operating profit was $105 million for the third quarter of 2024, down 19% compared to the prior year period.
&#8220;While Carbohydrate Solutions achieved strong results, our Ag Services and Oilseeds and Nutrition businesses delivered results below expectations, impacted by softer than expected market conditions and the pace of our planned improvement efforts,&#8221; added Luciano.
Outlook: The company has lowered its 2024 adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $4.50 &#8211; $5.00, down from the previous range of $5.25 &#8211; $6.25, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance">below the $5.23 analyst estimate.</a>
The company&#8217;s revised outlook reflects trends in ADM&#8217;s performance to date, legislative and regulatory policy uncertainties, and ongoing headwinds from slower market demand and internal operational challenges.
Price Action: ADM shares are trading lower by 9.3% to $50.16 at last check Tuesday.

Archer-Daniels-Midland Stock Dips After Q3 Preliminary Results: Earnings Miss, Guidance Cut Amid Restatements

WIIM

Archer Daniels Midland shares are trading lower after the company released preliminary Q3 results below estimates and lowered its FY24 adjusted EPS guidance.

U.S. stocks could open on a tentative note on Tuesday after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41696201/market-volatility-soars-ahead-of-elections-tech-earnings-mixed-strikes-and-hurricanes-knock-employm">averages registered a mixed October</a>. Futures of all three major indices were slightly up on Tuesday, pointing to a cautious sentiment on Wall Street.
While the S&amp;P 500 and Dow Jones snapped their six-week winning streak, the Nasdaq Composite chalked its seventh straight week of gains to round off a volatile October.
America goes to polls on Tuesday to elect its 47th president, and data so far suggests that it will be a neck-to-neck race between Democratic candidate&nbsp;Kamala Harris&nbsp;and Republican nominee&nbsp;Donald Trump.
Another factor playing on investors' minds will be the Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC) rate decision – the prevailing sentiment is that the Fed will deliver a 25-basis point cut.

In premarket trading on Tuesday,&nbsp;the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) rose 0.16% to $570.71 and the&nbsp;Invesco QQQ ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) edged up by 0.25% to $487.24, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Cues From Last Session:
The Dow Jones tumbled over 250 points on Monday, closing the day down by 0.61%. The other two averages also declined amid declining investor sentiment and rising fear in the market.
Oil prices continued to rebound after tanking the week before, amid delays in production output increase by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC.
Treasury yields continued to rise, signaling concerns that regardless of who wins the elections, the next administration might struggle with fiscal discipline. This sentiment was further exacerbated by the International Monetary Fund's warnings on the long-term trajectory <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41495286/deficit-strain-in-washington-will-get-worse-imf-warns-national-debt-projections-rev" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">of the U.S. national debt</a>.
On the economic data front, U.S. factory orders declined by 0.5% from the previous month to $584.2 billion in September compared to a revised 0.8% fall in August.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a negative note, with utilities, communication services, and financials stocks recording the biggest losses on Monday.
However, energy and real estate stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session higher.

Echoing Detrick's sentiment, WisdomTree and Wharton School economist&nbsp;Jeremy Siegel said the equity bull run could continue.
"In the near term, stock markets seem poised for further gains, bolstered by resilient earnings and steady economic fundamentals, while bond markets will likely grapple with higher yields and volatility ahead," he said.
"The bull market in stocks looks set to continue, while bonds face a rougher road."

Archer Daniels Midland (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/adm#NYSE">ADM</a>) came out with quarterly earnings of $1.03 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.23 per share. This compares to earnings of $1.89 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -16.26%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this agribusiness giant would post earnings of $1.35 per share when it actually produced earnings of $1.46, delivering a surprise of 8.15%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.
ADM, which belongs to the Zacks Agriculture - Operations industry, posted revenues of $22.25 billion for the quarter ended June 2024, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.08%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $25.19 billion. The company has not been able to beat consensus revenue estimates over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock&#39;s immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management&#39;s commentary on the earnings call.
ADM shares have lost about 12.4% since the beginning of the year versus the S&amp;P 500&#39;s gain of 14.5%.
What&#39;s Next for ADM?
While ADM has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors&#39; minds is: what&#39;s next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company&#39;s earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for ADM: mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company&#39;s just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $1.40 on $21.12 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $5.54 on $88.71 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Agriculture - Operations is currently in the top 35% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
One other stock from the same industry, Cadiz (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cdzi#NASDAQ">CDZI</a>), is yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2024.
This renewable resource company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.10 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +23.1%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.
Cadiz&#39;s revenues are expected to be $4 million, up 393.8% from the year-ago quarter.
