Portfolio Pulse from Bibhu Pattnaik
The Federal Reserve's annual bank stress test predicts that over $541 billion could exit the U.S. banking system in a severely adverse scenario. Despite this, all 23 of the largest U.S. banks tested would have sufficient capital to absorb these losses and continue lending. Banks including JPMorgan Chase & Co, Wells Fargo & Co, and Morgan Stanley are planning to raise their quarterly dividends after clearing the stress test.
