| News: What you need to know about the markets | | | | | | | Trump acts on health care; Bank earnings; Retail sales | By Ivana Kottasová
Friday, October 13th, 4:58am | | | | 1. Bank bonanza: Earnings season is now in full swing, with investors hearing from three big American banks on Friday. | | | | Bank of America, PNC and Wells Fargo are all set to publish their quarterly results before the open. | | | | Wells Fargo is expected to report healthy profits, but CEO Tim Sloan is likely to face tough questions about the bank's account fraud scandal. The controversy has spooked investors: while its competitors' shares have posted double digits gains this year, Wells Fargo has remained flat. | | | | It's a different story at Bank of America, where shares topped $26 last week for the first time since the financial crisis. | | | | On Thursday, JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup both beat analyst expectations for their earnings. | | | | 2. Trump acts on health care: President Trump has taken a first step towards dismantling Obamacare by signing an executive order. | | | | The order broadly tasks the administration with developing policies to increase health care competition and choice in order to improve the quality of health care and lower prices. | | | | However, it could also destabilize Obamacare by siphoning out younger and healthier Americans from health care exchanges. | | | | 3. Data flow: The U.S. Census Bureau will release its retail sales report for September at 8:30 a.m. ET. | | | | More data on how Americans are feeling will come at 10:00 a.m., when the University of Michigan releases its preliminary October consumer sentiment report. | | | | The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics will release its latest inflation data at 8:30 a.m. | | | | 4. Global market overview: U.S. stock futures were flat. | | | | European markets opened mixed, while Asian markets ended the session mostly higher. | | | | U.S. stocks backed away from record highs on Thursday. The Dow Jones industrial average shed 0.1%, while the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq dropped by 0.2%. | | | | Before the Bell newsletter: Key market news. In your inbox. Subscribe now! | | | | 5. Company news: Shares in 21st Century Fox were poised to drop at the open after a shareholder group called for an overhaul of the company's board following recent sexual and racial harassment scandals at Fox News. | | | | Samsung expects its profits in the quarter ended September to jump by almost 300% over the same period in 2016. The improvement was driven by strong sales from Samsung's semiconductor business, which supplies memory chips for rival phone makers including Apple. | | | | The South Korean firm also announced the resignation of Kwon Oh-hyun, the co-CEO of Samsung Electronics. | | | | Download CNN MoneyStream for up-to-the-minute market data and news | | | | | | | |
