Good MorningEquity markets rose last week, but bank earnings capped the gains. The banks reported better than expected top and bottom line results due to the rise of interest rates. The news is good for them because they make money when rates are high or low; the bad news is that the rest of the economy is paying more for credit and loans, which impacts demand.
The inflation data helped to lift markets last week, but that lift may be short-lived. Oil prices are rising and will underpin another acceleration of inflation if not capped soon. Based on the IEA's demand outlook and OPEC+ production cuts, oil prices will likely move higher in 2023. Featured: Your Bank Account Is No Longer Safe (Ad)
