It’s a week where earning dominate with plenty of stocks on the IG list of all-sessions coverage. Some of the big US companies include Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOG), Tesla (TSLA) Exxon Mobil (XOM), Chevron (CVX), Intel (INTC) and Ford Motor (F) to name just a few. Then in Europe Shell Oil (SHEL), Barclays (BARC), Lloyds Banking Gp (LLOY), NatWest (NWB), Unilever (ULVR), BNP Paribas (BNP) and Nestlé (NESN) as just some of those in Europe to watch. Economic data includes a raft of flash PMI from Japan, US, UK, eurozone, France, Germany etc. There’s also a first look at Q1 GDP in the US, ahead of the US rate decision the following week, and finally the Bank of Japan rate decision. The Japanese central bank has plenty of reasons to less hawkish that was originally thought at the start of the year.  Any opinion, news, research, analysis, or other information does not constitute investment or trading advice. Follow us on Twitter (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FIGcom&data=05%7C01%7CLeanne.Kunz%40ig.com%7C7db35926b5844a05f9e008db35e6f219%7C4b4cca9cedaf42f38e219070c5d9d76b%7C0%7C0%7C638163038236232639%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=KT6Mm0acluwAtu5oAuQwi%2BKL890dyDaSo33wBswQEls%3D&reserved=0), Instagram (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Figcom_official%2F&data=05%7C01%7CLeanne.Kunz%40ig.com%7C7db35926b5844a05f9e008db35e6f219%7C4b4cca9cedaf42f38e219070c5d9d76b%7C0%7C0%7C638163038236232639%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=FVRtONvjiM0Vz5Xxk3niXYqOOJvONz6wDrRJhBJ8Vac%3D&reserved=0), and YouTube (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2FIGcom%2Ffeatured&data=05%7C01%7CLeanne.Kunz%40ig.com%7C7db35926b5844a05f9e008db35e6f219%7C4b4cca9cedaf42f38e219070c5d9d76b%7C0%7C0%7C638163038236232639%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=X4fRGT4lyb48Anw1aEbSrH%2BpSk5AbXTHb3TUX626c4A%3D&reserved=0) 

With almost every US data point from jobs to manufacturing and commodities prices showing upward price pressures remain, should there be an interest rate hike instead of a cut? Tematica CIO Chris Versace says he thinks the Fed can sit and wait on rates for now, without having to cut until the risk of rising inflation has truly eased.Any opinion, news, research, analysis, or other information does not constitute investment or trading advice. Follow us on Twitter (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FIGcom&data=05%7C01%7CLeanne.Kunz%40ig.com%7C7db35926b5844a05f9e008db35e6f219%7C4b4cca9cedaf42f38e219070c5d9d76b%7C0%7C0%7C638163038236232639%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=KT6Mm0acluwAtu5oAuQwi%2BKL890dyDaSo33wBswQEls%3D&reserved=0), Instagram (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Figcom_official%2F&data=05%7C01%7CLeanne.Kunz%40ig.com%7C7db35926b5844a05f9e008db35e6f219%7C4b4cca9cedaf42f38e219070c5d9d76b%7C0%7C0%7C638163038236232639%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=FVRtONvjiM0Vz5Xxk3niXYqOOJvONz6wDrRJhBJ8Vac%3D&reserved=0), and YouTube (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2FIGcom%2Ffeatured&data=05%7C01%7CLeanne.Kunz%40ig.com%7C7db35926b5844a05f9e008db35e6f219%7C4b4cca9cedaf42f38e219070c5d9d76b%7C0%7C0%7C638163038236232639%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=X4fRGT4lyb48Anw1aEbSrH%2BpSk5AbXTHb3TUX626c4A%3D&reserved=0) *Your capital is at risk. 71% of retail CFD accounts lose money*

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? Any opinion, news, research, analysis, or other information does not constitute investment or trading advice. Follow us on Twitter (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FIGcom&data=05%7C01%7CLeanne.Kunz%40ig.com%7C7db35926b5844a05f9e008db35e6f219%7C4b4cca9cedaf42f38e219070c5d9d76b%7C0%7C0%7C638163038236232639%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=KT6Mm0acluwAtu5oAuQwi%2BKL890dyDaSo33wBswQEls%3D&reserved=0), Instagram (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Figcom_official%2F&data=05%7C01%7CLeanne.Kunz%40ig.com%7C7db35926b5844a05f9e008db35e6f219%7C4b4cca9cedaf42f38e219070c5d9d76b%7C0%7C0%7C638163038236232639%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=FVRtONvjiM0Vz5Xxk3niXYqOOJvONz6wDrRJhBJ8Vac%3D&reserved=0), and YouTube (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2FIGcom%2Ffeatured&data=05%7C01%7CLeanne.Kunz%40ig.com%7C7db35926b5844a05f9e008db35e6f219%7C4b4cca9cedaf42f38e219070c5d9d76b%7C0%7C0%7C638163038236232639%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=X4fRGT4lyb48Anw1aEbSrH%2BpSk5AbXTHb3TUX626c4A%3D&reserved=0)
