Insights From Analysts
Market volatility, driven by tariff uncertainties and federal job cuts, has created a buying opportunity, according to Scott Wren, Senior Global Market Strategist. &#8220;The pullback in equities offers an opportunity,&#8221; he said.
Despite recent market pullbacks, Wren advises shifting from bonds to equities. He argues that while tariffs and job cuts introduce costs, their impact on the overall economy, particularly the likelihood of a recession, is minimal.
Tariffs, while causing localized price increases, won&#8217;t uniformly affect U.S. firms, and federal layoffs represent a small portion of the labor market, with historical data suggesting displaced workers find alternative employment. Wren also notes that tariff revenue and federal budget savings tend to be limited.
He added that strong labor market fundamentals and healthy household finances support continued consumer spending, mitigating recession risks. &#8220;We think the economy will grow a little more slowly than in 2024, but the consumer and the labor market look more like their averages of the past 15 years than a prelude to a recession,&#8221; he said.
Mohamed El-Erian, a prominent economist, criticized the Federal Reserve&#8217;s recent communication, citing their past error in labeling inflation as &#8220;transitory.&#8221; He believes the Fed should be more cautious, especially given their previous misjudgment and current economic uncertainties.

Jabil Gears Up For Q2 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Jabil Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBL#NYSE">JBL</a>) will release its second-quarter financial results, before the <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">opening bell, on Thursday, March 20</a>.
Analysts expect the company to report quarterly earnings at $1.83 per share, up from $1.68 per share in the year-ago period. Jabil projects quarterly revenue of $6.4 billion, compared to $6.77 billion a year earlier, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
On Feb. 24, Goldman Sachs analyst Mark Delaney maintained Jabil with a Buy and raised the price target from $160 to $179.
With the recent buzz around Jabil, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company's dividends too. Currently, Jabil offers an annual dividend yield of 0.24%, a quarterly dividend amount of 8 cents per share (32 cents a year). 
So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly?
To earn $500 per month or $6,000 annually from dividends alone, you would need an investment of approximately $2,542,875 or around 18,750 shares. For a more modest $100 per month or $1,200 per year, you would need $508,575 or around 3,750 shares.
To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend (32 cents in this case). So, $6,000 / $0.32 = 18,750 ($500 per month), and $1,200 / $0.32 = 3,750 shares ($100 per month).
Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time.
How that works: The dividend yield is computed by dividing the annual dividend payment by the stock&#8217;s current price.
For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and is currently priced at $50, the dividend yield would be 4% ($2/$50). However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price falls to $40, the dividend yield rises to 5% ($2/$40).
Similarly, changes in the dividend payment can impact the yield. If a company increases its dividend, the yield will also increase, provided the stock price stays the same. Conversely, if the dividend payment decreases, so will the yield.
Price Action: Shares of Jabil fell 2% to close at $135.62 on Tuesday.
