Stock market today: Nikkei jumps, yen sinks as Dow and S&P brace for U.S. CPI and JPMorgan

Global stocks climbed Tuesday, fueled by a record surge in Tokyo as investors awaited U.S. inflation figures and the kickoff of major bank earnings. Japan’s Nikkei soared 3.3%, while the yen slipped toward 159 per dollar. IG strategist Chris Beauchamp described the market as “climbing and climbing” a fresh “wall of worry.” Gold hovered near $4,600 an ounce following a record high, with RBC’s Christopher Louney dubbing it a “catch-all” hedge. The U.S. December consumer price index arrives Tuesday and might reshape expectations around the pace of Federal Reserve rate cuts. Analysts predict annual core inflation, excluding food and energy, will tick up to 2.7%. Traders also factored in President Donald Trump’s vow to impose a 25% tariff on any nation trading with Iran, coupled with fresh criticism of Fed independence.

Trump’s 10% credit card rate cap plan hits bank stocks as JPMorgan, Citi slide

U.S. financial stocks tumbled Monday after President Donald Trump proposed a one-year cap on credit card interest rates, sparking concerns over a major profit driver.

Bank of America stock: Trump’s 10% credit-card rate cap call hits ahead of BAC earnings

New York, January 11, 2026, 11:15 EST — Market closed.

S&P 500 2026 Forecast: 7,490 Target Meets a Data Test as Earnings Season Nears

A slim majority—56%—also forecast a market correction in the coming months. “The most under-appreciated tail risk for 2026 is that the Fed eases monetary policy more than economic conditions justify, inadvertently reigniting inflation,” said Lale Akoner, a global market strategist at eToro.

Bank of America stock (BAC) holds near 52-week high after accounting change trims key capital ratio

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 20:14 EST — Market closed Bank of America Corp said it changed accounting methods for certain tax-related equity investments, an adjustment that would have cut its common equity tier 1 ratio — a key measure of bank capital — by 13 basis points as of Sept. 30, 2025, on a pro forma basis. Applied retrospectively, retained earnings as of Sept. 30 fell $1.7 billion and CET1 capital would have decreased about $2.1 billion, it said; it also estimated its third-quarter effective tax rate would have been about 20% versus 10.4% previously reported. The lender said the new methods are preferable because they “better align the financial statement presentation with the economic impact” of the investments. SEC
