While many of the biggest banks reported earnings last week, this week corporate third quarter earnings reports continue, including some from companies that advisors would find interesting. We also see a hodgepodge of other reports: on October 20 housing starts and the producer price index numbers will be released, while the House Financial Services Committee holds a hearing on systemic regulation, while the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee holds a hearing on housing.
As for earnings, BlackRock reports on October 20, as does Bank of New York Mellon. On the 21st, we hear about first-time jobless claims, leading indicators, and the Fed's beige book; earnings include Ameriprise, Morgan Stanley, and Raymond James Financial.
