Can A Potential Pre-Earnings Bank Rally Save The Dow Jones From Tumbling?
Portfolio Pulse from Thrash Capital
The financial sector, particularly Goldman Sachs (GS) and Bank of America (BAC), may influence the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DIA) as they report earnings this week. Historically, both GS and BAC have experienced pre-earnings rallies, with GS rallying 7-8% and BAC 4-12% in the weeks before their earnings calls in the past two years. The performance of GS, being the second largest name in the Dow Jones, will be especially crucial in determining the index's direction.
