Morning Bid: US earnings to shed light on tariff impact
A look at the day ahead in European and global markets from Rocky Swift With markets largely inured to an ever-changing tariff picture, the spotlight turns to Wall Street earnings for clues on how the trade drama is affecting corporate bottom lines. JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Citigroup are among heavyweights reporting second-quarter results today. Profits for S&P 500 companies in the second quarter are expected to rise 5.8%, according to LSEG data, down from a forecast of 10.2% on April 1, before U.S. President Donald Trump launched his trade war. Investors are also waiting for U.S. consumer price data for June, looking for any sign of price pressure from tariffs or hints on policy moves by the Federal Reserve. But the main Fed move Trump is gunning for is an early exit by Chairman Jerome Powell, who hasn't given in to the president's wish for "rocket fuel" rate cuts. Bond markets are on edge about whether an investigation into renovations of the central bank's headquarters will serve as fodder to oust Powell. Asian shares and Nasdaq futures got a bounce after Nvidia, the $4 trillion behemoth at the forefront of the artificial intelligence investment boom, said it will resume sales of its H20 chips to China.

BofA sees 'toppy' sentiment leading to rotation, not retreat
MILAN (Reuters) -Investor sentiment surged in July to its most bullish since February, driven by the biggest jump in profit optimism in five years and a record surge in risk appetite, Bank of America's latest global fund manager survey showed. Cash levels fell to 3.9% in July, a low that triggered an in-house "sell signal" from the investment bank's strategists. BofA noted that sentiment was getting "toppy," but added fund managers' overweight positioning in stocks was not yet at extreme levels and bond market volatility remained low. The U.S. bank suggested investors are more likely to stick to a "summer of hedging and rotation" between sectors rather than placing big short bets or making a significant retreat, as "greed is much harder to reverse than fear."
