| News: What you need to know about the markets | | | | | | | Deutsche Bank's retreat; ECB meeting; Facebook soars | By Ivana Kottasová
Thursday, April 26th, 4:56am | | | | 1. Deutsche Bank overhaul: Germany's biggest lender is retreating from Wall Street. | | | | Christian Sewing, who has been CEO for less than a month, announced a major overhaul on Thursday that will see the bank scale back its operations in the United States and Asia and review its global equities business. | | | | Germany's largest bank also announced "painful" jobs cuts in its investment bank after its net profit fell by 79% to €120 million ($146 million) in the first quarter. | | | | "Even a quick look at the figures makes one thing clear: we have to take action -- fast," Sewing said. "There is no time to lose as the current returns for our shareholders are not acceptable." | | | | Sewing replaced John Cryan as CEO earlier this month after the bank posted three consecutive annual losses. | | | | 2. ECB meeting: The European Central Bank will announce an interest rate decision at 7:45 a.m. ET, followed by a press conference at 8:30 a.m. | | | | Analysts expect the rate policy to remain unchanged. | | | | But the bank may give more insight on whether weak economic data could delay the gradual end of its stimulus program. The ECB has purchased bonds worth over €2 trillion ($2.5 trillion) as part of the effort. | | | | 3. What scandal?: Facebook's shares jumped as much as 7% in extended trading after the company reported it has 1.45 billion daily active users and 2.2 billion monthly users, both of which were up 13% over the previous year. | | | | Facebook posted nearly $12 billion in revenue for the first three months of 2018, up nearly 50% from the same period a year earlier. | | | | The audience gains were revealed as part of Facebook's first earnings report since the Cambridge Analytica data scandal surfaced last month and shaved tens of billions off its market value. | | | | On a conference call with analysts, Zuckerberg stressed that he remains committed to the advertising business model that has powered Facebook. | | | | 4. Global market overview: US stock futures were mixed, reflecting a broader trend across global markets. | | | | European and Asian markets struggled to find direction -- stocks in the United Kingdom and China were lower, while the rest of Europe, Japan and Korea posted gains. | | | | The Dow Jones industrial average gained 0.3% on Wednesday, snapping the longest losing streak in a year. The S&P 500 jumped 0.2%. | | | | The Nasdaq shed 0.1%, dropping for the fifth day in row and extending its longest losing streak since just before President Donald Trump's election. | | | | Before the Bell newsletter: Key market news.
