Wall Street Banks Smash Profit Records
JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, and Goldman Sachs reported blockbuster second-quarter earnings, driven by a surge in dealmaking and equities trading amid market volatility from the Iran conflict.
JPMorgan posted a record $21.2 billion profit, while equities revenue jumped 86%.
The five largest US banks collectively generated $49 billion in profits, with SpaceX's historic IPO contributing to the trading frenzy.
The extraordinary results underscore how geopolitical turmoil and the AI boom have supercharged Wall Street's core businesses.
