Among next week's earnings reporters investors can find Netflix (Tuesday), Tesla (Wednesday), IBM (Wednesday) as well as Intel (Thursday). Tech stocks usually report after the close of the Wall Street session. Nasdaq-100 (US100) outperform S&P 500 this week and reports from major index' members will set direction next week.
USDTRY
In spite of inflation running wild in Turkey, CBRT unexpectedly decided to cut interest rates at its latest meeting. To make things worse, the Turkish President Erdogan has fired 3 CBRT members who opposed rate cuts. Lira sank to record lows against US dollar and euro and actions by Erdogan do not hint that relief will come anytime soon. CBRT will announce the next monetary policy decision this Thursday at 12:00 pm BST. Market expects the main rate to be cut from 18 to 17% but everything can happen in the crazy world of Turkish monetary policy.
