Tech Earnings to Test Equities Amid Geopolitical Risks and Dollar Weakness

The upcoming week is set to see technology earnings in focus, which could revive equities as geopolitical risks persist. Last week's mixed trading saw the US dollar, oil, and US equities under the spotlight.

A softer-than-expected CPI and PPI left the greenback under pressure, overshadowing continued hawkish rhetoric from the Federal Reserve Chair. The dollar weakness came despite the Fed's stance, as markets reacted to the inflation data.

With earnings season underway, technology sector results are seen as a potential catalyst for equity markets. However, geopolitical risks remain a headwind, keeping sentiment cautious.
