Change in earnings estimate directions, especially when estimates start increasing after a long period of decline, are what we call "inflections". These, we believe, are the strongest share price catalysts. 
We identify nine market-sectors across Asia ex Japan exhibiting upward earnings inflections. Four are from financials, two from telecoms and one each from utilities, consumer durables and industrials.
These market-sectors are from HK/China (3), Korea (1), ASEAN (5). Financials' domination indicates that a broader Asian macroeconomic recovery could be under way. Eight companies are primarily driving the upgrades.
