Yesterday marked the start of earnings season, as big banks like JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) and Wells Fargo & Co. (WFC) kicked things off. Last quarter was supposed to mark an earnings trough for the S&P 500 Index (^SPX), but instead, it churned out 8.7% growth, observes Bret Kenwell, US investment analyst at eToro.

Gold is on pace for its best one-year rally in almost fifty years, so it’s only natural to say that the rally could use a rest — and it could. But gold is a tricky asset at times. After flailing through the 1980s and 1990s, it went on a twelve-year win streak, gaining more than 500% in the process, observes Bret Kenwell, US investment analyst at eToro.

It’s a critical week for investors as they size up the US labor market, which includes yesterday’s JOLTS report and Friday’s all-important monthly jobs report. The JOLTS report missed economists’ expectations, but investors may find relief in increased confidence for a rate cut later this month, observes Bret Kenwell, US investment analyst at eToro.
