It’s back, front and centre, US quarterly earnings. Following the release on Friday of Q1 numbers from JP Morgan (JPM), Citigroup (C) and Wells Fargo (WFC), it’s the turn this week of Goldman Sachs (GS), Bank of America (BAC), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ, Procter & Gamble (PG) and Netflix (NFLX) amongst others. Watchout out for all these as they all trade all session on the IG platform to enable clients to take advantage. Meanwhile in Europe LVMH (MC) and ASML (ASML) lead the charge. Economic data may also provide opportunities for FX traders with US retail sales, UK jobs data and inflation while in China a raft of data including Q1 GDP, retail sales and industrial production. The big question there is will it provide the authorities with enough evidence of the need for state support?
