Скачать или смотреть Earnings Take the Baton as CES Calm Fades | Express Lane (12 Jan 2026)

(12 January 2026) Markets pushed through a volatile news cycle as US geopolitical moves dominated the tape. CES ended up being the quiet driver of stability, with AI, semis and platform names regaining momentum as investors focused back on product roadmaps and monetisation. The anticipated IEEPA ruling failed to materialise, keeping tariff uncertainty alive while US data added a Goldilocks finish as cooler employment signals and capped Treasury yields steadied broader risk appetite.

🟢 Green Light
Earnings season is the cleanest upside catalyst this week, led by major US banks. Funding costs, credit demand and year-end deposit behaviour will shape how investors read the health of the consumer and corporate sectors at a time when positioning is still cautious. With tech sentiment already lifted by CES, early financials commentary can help anchor market tone, especially around loan growth, capital return and trading activity.

🟡 Yellow Light
Asia delivers a heavy macro and earnings week. Japan and China release a full data run including trade, financing, machinery orders and money supply. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company’s results is key after contributing a large share of Asia’s gains since September, making its guidance and capex signals important for global semis. India adds another layer of volatility with inflation, trade and major corporate earnings hitting at once.

🔴 Red Light

US data and policy risks remain the biggest swing factors. CPI and retail sales arrive back-to-back and can quickly influence the expected pace of Fed cuts if shelter, goods or spending prints come in hotter or softer than forecast. The still-pending IEEPA decision sits over risk assets given its implications for supply chains, tariffs and political temperature.
