The ongoing stock market euphoria in the States is not carrying over on the same scale to other markets, although Asian indexes halted a three-day downward streak and the Hang Seng managed to rise slightly on the second day of the ongoing Chinese Communist Party leadership plenum. The mood in Europe remains noticeably weaker than on the other side of the Atlantic. News of the possible rise of 'Republican hawks' including J.D. Vence to leadership positions in a potential Trump administration has spread and suggests a possible increase in geopolitical risks on the Old Continent.
The earnings season in the States is going quite positively; great results from United Health Group yesterday took the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DIJA) to new highs. Today, attention will focus on US industrial data (for June) and the results of more US companies. Markets will also learn about oil inventory data according to the EIA, construction permits in the US and the so-called Beige Book, which will gather an assessment of the economy and comments from US business representatives, economists and investors
