Practically all the major banks are expected to post their latest earnings this week. We already have seen Citigroup offer a decent bottom-line beat. A few of quarterly reports from these banks are due on Tuesday.

In general, financial stocks have made solid gains so far this year, despite a tumultuous May. At the same time, the Federal Reserve has proven to be more hawkish with potential rate cuts to come. Markets have risen to record highs, and results from these major banks can set the tone for earnings going forward.
