Q4 Results



Outlook 01/14: Stock markets across the globe are starting the week on the back foot after a shock contraction in Chinese exports, which fell 4.4% from a year earlier. Earnings season kicks off this week with Citigroup announcing Q4 results. Citigroup, the first of the big U.S. banks to report fourth-quarter results, missed revenue estimates by a half-billion dollars as bond trading revenue declined amid a difficult December for markets. The bank made $1.61 per share in profit, excluding impacts of the U.S. tax overhaul, beating expectations for $1.55 on better-than-expected cuts in expenses and loan losses.
