We Are/DigitalVision via Getty Images Financials in Focus: Big Banks Kick Off Q1 Earnings Season In a rare plot twist, Goldman Sachs ( GS ) front-ran the banking pack yesterday, marking the first time the firm has kicked off the earnings season ahead of JPMorgan Chase ( JPM ) since 2018. The storied investment bank delivered notable results, comfortably surpassing analysts' estimates on both the top and bottom lines. While the firm achieved record revenues in its equities division, which surged 27% to $5.33 billion due to strong prime financing, FICC (fixed income, currencies & commodities) trading proved to be a relative weak point, falling 10% year-over-year as softer market-making conditions in interest rates and mortgages weighed on results. Offsetting the trading volatility was a powerful rebound in investment banking, where fees jumped 48% to $2.84 billion on the back of a significant increase in completed M&A and debt underwriting activity. To account for wholesale loan impairments, the bank marginally increased its provision for credit losses to $315 million, reflecting a more cautious stance on the broader lending environment. Looking ahead, CEO David Solomon emphasized the resilience of the firm's "Capital Markets Flywheel," noting that despite geopolitical headwinds, the bank is well-positioned to serve clients as the bull market matures and broadens into more cyclical sectors. 1 Attention now shifts to the core banks to provide a broader look at the economy, with JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo ( WFC ), and Citigroup ( C ) all reporting tomorrow before the bell. Similar to results seen from GS, analysts expect trading desks will likely see equities outperform FICC, as fixed-income volumes dampened following the recent ceasefire. Investors will also be eager to hear about consumer resilience, with particular interest in credit card delinquencies and increased loan loss provisions as a gauge of consumer health. We will also be listening closely for commentary ...

A display of technologies such as 5G, artificial intelligence, big data, and industrial internet in Wuhan, Hubei province. Photo: IC The gap in performance between top-tier artificial intelligence models developed by the U.S. and China has largely closed, marking a new phase in the global AI race — one characterized by diminishing technological dividends and highly concentrated resources, according to a recently released report. Stanford University’s Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence published its 2026 Artificial Intelligence Index Report, which highlights that AI is making breakthroughs in areas such as scientific reasoning and coding, nearing human benchmarks. The focus of AI development has shifted; no longer are model performance scores the primary issue, but rather the massive expansion of infrastructure, the structural reshaping of the labor market, and increasingly urgent environmental and safety governance challenges.

Stefan Rousseau - Pa Images | Pa Images | Getty Images Europe's airline industry is at risk of a "systemic" jet fuel shortage in the next few weeks if the Strait of Hormuz blockade continues, with the potential of hundreds of flight cuts, according to experts. Claudio Galimberti, chief economist at Rystad Energy, told CNBC's Ritika Gupta on "Europe Early Edition," on Tuesday that the situation facing airlines "pretty much depends on how many barrels will be flowing through the Strait." "The situation within the next three, four weeks can become systemic, so you can have severe cuts of flights in Europe already starting in May and June," he added. Traffic through the strategically vital waterway ground to a halt after Iran closed it during the war with the U.S. and Israel, sending oil prices surging. After peace negotiations between the U.S. and Iran collapsed at the weekend, the U.S. began a naval blockade of ships entering and leaving Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz, aiming to cut Iran's oil exports and increase pressure on Tehran. watch now VIDEO 4:05 04:05 Europe facing severe flight cancellations by May and June: Economist Europe Early Edition Rico Luman, senior economist at ING, said: "There are many warnings of looming shortages in the weeks ahead, if there's no supply coming again." "We've seen these vessels now stopping, so supplies from the Middle East have run out, and we need replacements," Luman told CNBC's Steve Sedgwick and Ben Boulos on "Squawk Box Europe." ACI Europe , which represents airports across the EU, said last week that a shortage could hit as early as three weeks, disrupting peak travel season with "harsh economic impacts." Several EU member states rely on the economic boost from the summer travel season, with air travel generating 851 billion euros (nearly $1 trillion) in GDP for Eu...

Warren Buffett has become an icon in the world of investing, thanks to his excellence in this area decade after decade. As chief executive officer, he led Berkshire Hathaway to 60 years of market-beating performance. Though he retired from that post at the end of 2025, he remains chairman of the holding company, continues to go into the office -- and continues to share his thoughts on investing. The recent stock market turbulence makes now the perfect time to turn to Buffett for advice. Stocks have swung from gains to losses, amid spikes in volatility, and the S&P 500 finally ended the month of March with a 5% decline. Investors sold off tech stocks and avoided growth stocks in general amid a variety of concerns, including worries about the U.S. economy and the war in Iran. Against this backdrop, Buffett -- who has been a net seller of stocks for more than a dozen quarters -- delivered a fresh warning to Wall Street. Let's check it out and consider what it means for investing right now. Continue reading
