US Equity Investors to Focus on Banks Kicking Off Q2 Earnings, Warsh's Take on Inflation, Worsening Geopolitics This Week

US equity investors will focus on Q2 earnings this week, with big money-centre banks kicking off the earnings season in earnest, and consumer price inflation data amid an escalation of tensions with Iran.* JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Citibank (C), Bank of America (BAC), Goldman Sachs (GS), Morgan Stanley (MS), and Wells Fargo (WFC) are among banks reporting quarterly earnings, with investors expecting results to help counter tense geopolitics. ASML (ASML) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM) are among the others reporting, giving investors a fresh take on the state of the so-called AI trade.* Investors will look out for consumer and wholesale price inflation data amid the market pricing in at least one interest rate increase this year. Additionally, Federal Chair Kevin Warsh's testimony is due, alongside retail sales, Michigan consumer sentiment, and inflation expectations.* The combined probability that rates will be higher by 25 or 50 basis points from current levels by December is around 70%, according to the CME FedWatch tool. Investors will parse Warsh's testimony, which comes amid a worsening geopolitical environment and higher crude oil prices. Fed's June meeting minutes, released last week, showed "quite a divide" on the rate path given the impact of the war in Iran on inflation, a Stifel note said on Friday.* The US and Iran each asserted Monday they controlled the Strait of Hormuz after a weekend of attacks stretching across the wider Middle East, further threatening any diplomacy to end the war, the Associated Press reported early Monday.* Iran and the US are nearly at the midway point of a 60-day period that was supposed to result in a permanent end to the war, the news report said. Instead, it has devolved into a series of attacks over the strait and its future, worrying world leaders that the Iran war could fully resume, it added.* Early Monday, West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures jumped 3.4% to $73.87 a barrel.

Cerebras Systems' Q1 Outlook Hinges on Supply, Market Share Gains, Wedbush Says

Cerebras Systems' (CBRS) Q1 results versus expectations will likely depend on supply dynamics and early traction in the AI accelerator market, Wedbush Securities said Monday in a report.Wedbush cited several potential sources of upside, including the possibility of higher-than-expected wafer output from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM), which could support stronger system shipments, and the expected launch of its next-generation WSE-4 processor in late 2026 or early 2027, which may provide additional revenue and margin benefits."However, ultimately, Cerebras's success will be less about near-term upside and more about building meaningful share in the rapidly expanding AI accelerator market," the report said.The company is set to release its Q1 results on Tuesday.Several industry trends appear supportive, including continued growth in AI inference demand, potential production upside from TSMC that may enable additional customers, and ongoing memory supply constraints that may strengthen Cerebras's competitive position in the intermediate term, the report said.Wedbush has an outperform rating on Cerebras stock with a $270 price target.Cerebras shares fell 1.8% in Monday trading, and TSMC rose 1%.Price: $230.43, Change: $-4.28, Percent Change: -1.82%

Apple Chip Production Deal Represents Big Opportunity For Intel, Wedbush Says

Apple's (AAPL) chip production deal with Intel (INTC) represents a big opportunity for the semiconductor manufacturer, Wedbush Securities said in a note on Thursday.President Donald Trump announced on social media that Apple had agreed to work with Intel to design and build chips in the US.Neither of the two companies responded to' requests for comment.Apple was considering engaging Intel and Samsung for producing device chips in the US, diversifying beyond long-time partner Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSM), Bloomberg News reported in May.Intel's shares surged 9.2% in Thursday trade, and are up 258% year to date. Apple was up 0.8%, and has gained nearly 10% this year."After Apple transitioned away from Intel chips for its own in-house Apple Silicon, the company will now do a significant portion of deals with Intel in the coming years," Wedbush analysts including Dan Ives wrote.Apple's US manufacturing represents "a huge opportunity for Intel, with Apple now going into this (three to four) year (artificial intelligence)-driven device cycle," Ives said.The new partnership will reduce the iPhone maker's reliance on Asian factories, according to Wedbush.Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook told The Wall Street Journal that price increases "are unavoidable" amid surging memory costs, as reported by the Journal on Wednesday."We believe (Apple) is in a strong position to increase prices without sacrificing hardware performance and risking increasing customer churn given the company's increasing focus on the higher-end consumer," Ives said.Wedbush maintained an outperform rating on Apple's stock with a $400 price target.In April, Apple reported fiscal second-quarter results above Wall Street's estimates driven by iPhone revenue beat. Separately, Intel posted stronger-than-expected first-quarter results as it benefited from AI-driven demand for its products.Price: $296.89, Change: $+0.94, Percent Change: +0.32%
