Moods on the global stock market are slightly weaker at the beginning of a new week. Majority of indices from Asia moved lower and the beginning of the European session does not look too optimistic either. US index futures are also trading a touch lower.
However, US indices may see some more action starting from this week as earnings season for Q2 2022 begins! As usual, major US banks will be the first ones to report. Reports from JPMorgan (Thursday), Morgan Stanley (Thursday) and Citigroup (Friday) are among top ones this week. Note that performance of the banking sector can help judge performance of the whole economy therefore reports from major Wall Street players may have a big impact on market sentiment.
