Good MorningStocks pulled back from their highs on Thursday while investors wait on the details of President-Elect Biden’s COVID relief plan. The plan is expected to include another round of individual stimulus checks but faces stiff opposition in Congress. With only the narrowest of majorities in both the House and the Senate Democratic leaders will need the aid of Republicans to pass any major legislation.
Friday marks the kickoff of peak earnings season. Reports from JP Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Citigroup are all expected to move markets on better than expected earnings and positive guidance. The big banks are expected to have returned to YOY growth in the 4th quarter of 2020 setting them up for increased buybacks and dividends in 2021. The risk is the same as it has been, if the banks fail to impress the market there is a risk for a market correction.
