01[11:44] {@Threei}  Earnings season gets underway this week with quarterly reports from the big US banks. Shares of Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley and Citigroup are leading indices higher this morning, with good gains ahead of reports in the coming days. With the bulk of the major regulatory settlements behind them, the economy brightening and interest rate hikes not too far off, this earnings season could be the beginning of a positive feedback loop for the financials.
01[11:44] {@Threei}  The dollar extended last week's rally this morning, with EUR/USD dipping briefly below 1.0550, approaching the mid-March 12-year low of 1.0462. At least some of the softness follows reports on Sunday that the EU has given Athens until April 20th to preset a new slate of reforms in order for the final €7.2 billion tranche of aid funds to be unlocked.
