1. Getting greedy: Wall Street is on a major winning streak.

The Dow Jones industrial average posted an eighth consecutive record on Tuesday. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq are also sitting at their highest levels ever.

Will the rally continue? It's hard to say: U.S. stock futures were little changed on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, the CNNMoney Fear & Greed index shows that investors are feeling "extremely greedy". Some of the enthusiasm is based on the expectation that President Trump will cut taxes and industry regulations.

DISH Network (DISH), Garmin (GRMN), Six Flags (SIX) and Fitbit (FIT) will also report earnings.

Shares in Lloyds Banking Group (LYG) surged by about 4% in London as investors cheered its 2016 results.
