Bareksa.com - Asian companies are gearing up to strut their stuff as the second quarter earnings season kicks off. South Korea's top automaker, Hyundai Motors, is expected to announce its quarterly results on Thursday (July 24). In the first quarter, the firm posted its lowest profit in over a year due to a stronger won currency. It hasn't been a smooth ride for Hyundai with recalls in the U.S. last year followed by unimpressive sales and a management shake-up.
