Major U.S. stock-indexes demonstrated mixed dynamics as a number of companies (including McDonald’s (MCD)), provided disappointing quarterly results. McDonald’s reported Q2 earnings of $1.45 per share, beating analysts’ consensus estimate of $1.39. At the same time, the company’s quarterly revenues reduced by 3.6% y/y to $6.265 bln, strictly in-line with analysts’ consensus estimate. Market participants are waiting for earnings reports from Apple (AAPL) and Twitter (TWTR), which are set to be published after the market’s close. In addition, investors remain cautious ahead of the U.S.Federal Reserve meeting this week.
