A busy week kicks off today. Hundreds of companies across the globe report results through September 10.
Today — Friday, September 4

Fisher & Paykel Healthcare posts results early today too. The New Zealand-listed medtech giant has a market cap near $15bn and is closely watched by respiratory device investors.
Quanex Building Products reports at 3pm ET. The US building materials firm is one of few North American companies with a confirmed earnings release today.

No IPOs are confirmed in the pipeline for the next seven days.
No confirmed US mega-cap earnings are scheduled this week. Amazon appears only in a conference presentation slot on Monday September 7 — not a results release.
With no blockbuster US reports due, focus shifts to UK defence and global industrials. Markets will watch Babcock closely given elevated defence spending across NATO members.
