Investors are bracing for a consequential week ahead, with major corporate earnings, a high-profile antitrust hearing, and critical jobs data set to dominate the financial landscape.
The spotlight will be on earnings reports from several technology and media giants, including Alphabet, Amazon, and Disney. These results will be closely scrutinized for insights into consumer spending, digital advertising trends, and the overall health of the corporate sector.
Simultaneously, a Senate hearing will examine Netflix's proposed acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery. Lawmakers are expected to probe the potential impacts on market competition, consumer choice, and creative content within the rapidly consolidating streaming industry.
The week culminates with the highly anticipated release of the January jobs report.
