Market sentiment may turn nervous, as earnings reports from major U.S. companies could significantly influence market direction.

Outlook for the week of July 20–24: The Nikkei 225 may see nervous trading, as earnings reports from major U.S. companies could sway market sentiment. While there is some expectation that the recent correction in artificial intelligence (AI) and semiconductor-related stocks may have run its course, market direction will likely hinge on earnings results from key U.S. firms such as Alphabet and Intel. If the rebound in AI and semiconductor stocks remains sluggish, investor interest may continue shifting toward relatively resilient sectors such as retail and information services. Additionally, Japan’s consumer price index (CPI), scheduled for release on July 24, could influence expectations regarding a potential rate hike in September.

A trading range is expected, with continued focus on earnings reports from AI-related stocks.

Outlook for the week of July 20–24: The Dow Jones Industrial Average is expected to trade sideways. With few economic data releases scheduled this week and a blackout period ahead of next week’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting—during which Federal Reserve officials refrain from public commentary—market attention will likely remain focused on earnings reports from artificial intelligence (AI)-related stocks. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are unlikely to see rapid near-term improvement, and as earnings season gains momentum, stock-specific trading activity is expected to intensify.
