Thursday preview: US Q2 GDP, Nvidia results in focus
(Sharecast News) - The market spotlight on Thursday will be on a preliminary reading for second quarter GDP growth in the US. America´s economy is expected to have expanded at a 3.1% quarterly annualised clip over the three months to June.
Also due out are figures for initial weekly jobless claims and pending home sales.
In the euro area, money supply growth data for July will be out at 0800 BST, followed by the European Commission's economic confidence index for August at 0900 BST.
On the corporate side of things, US chip-making giant Nvidia will be in focus.
The company is due to release its second quarter results after the New York close on Wednesday.
They will arrive with shares in the more than $4trn market-cap firm trading just off their record highs.
Management's guidance for the latest quarter was for revenues of $45bn +/-2%, while gross margins are expected to improve to 72%.
As City analyst Michael Hewson notes, incorporated into that guidance were new US restrictions on sales of chips overseas, which were expected to subtract around $8bn from the topline.
