The expectations of investors for S&P 500 earnings continued to fall in the three months since our last snapshot of them.

Forecasts for S&P 500 Trailing Twelve Month Earnings per Share, 2010-2014, as of 14 November 2013

Since peaking ahead of Summer 2013 at $108.18, the collective amount of earnings per share now expected to be earned by S&P 500 companies through the end of 2013 has fallen to $97.82 per share.

This is the lowest level that investors have projected for trailing twelve month earnings per share for 2013 since S&P's forecast for 2013 was first projected in January 2012.
