5 Things to Know This Week

The markets were very erratic last week with early (but not super reliable) signs of trouble.

Between trade war tensions, the 2-year Treasury yield moving above the 10-year Treasury, and an 800 point sell-off on August 14th, investors were left on the edge of their seats going into this week.

It’s not going to be a quiet week for Wall Street and here are the 5 things you should know.


#1 – Awaiting Earnings

Some of the most well-known stocks are scheduled to announce earnings this week.

A massive Chinese technology company, a high-end furniture company, and a do-it-yourself retailer – you’ll find reports from each end of the sector spectrum.
