The Week Ahead: 13th - 17th July 2026
In Focus: Patience, The FED, Earnings Season Begins
Trading Services I Use:
StockAnalysis.com - I’ve been using Stock Analysis as an affordable but reliable method of looking at New and Upcoming IPOs, Earnings Calendars and most notably KPIs (Key Performance Indicators). Stock Analysis allows you to view the KPIs for many companies with up to date metrics and segments that you can cross reference against Earnings Results. This is incredibly important when understanding what metrics move a stock. At $65 per year it’s a no brainer. They’ve given me a discount code if you use IRISHBORNINVESTOR they will give you another 10% Off.
Situational Awareness:
Market Condition: Constructive, Bullish Leaning
Commentary: Earnings season kicks off this coming week with the bank stocks reporting. There isn’t a huge amount of tradeable earnings for us this week but the banks always set the tone. We also have some important Semiconductor names reporting in ASML and TSM. NFLX, as usual, will also be the first big tech/communications name to report.
The names with the best charts - ANGO, SIFY, KARO are illiquid so unless they do something special in earnings it’s unlikely they’ll be tradeable but I’ve highlighted them just in case.
While I don’t focus on Macro it is a big week. US CPI Data will be released on Tuesday morning before the open and FED Chair Warsh will also testify in the House and Senate on Tuesday and Wednesday. Finally we also have PPI on Wednesday.
The plan for the week is to be patient, the market is holding well and we are in a bull market so I remain optimistic that earnings season will bring us fantastic opportunities. Don’t use mental capital on substandard trades. Wait for quality catalysts.
