## Resource

Big banks drop Q2 earnings, revealing how high interest rates are fueling profits—but also exposing early signs of consumer strain. JPMorgan leads with strong net interest income, Wells Fargo shows growth after Fed restrictions lifted, Citigroup continues its turnaround with credit card loss provisions under watch, Goldman Sachs signals deal-making momentum, and Bank of America benefits from its massive deposit base. All eyes are on whether banks can sustain gains as rates stay high—and whether loan defaults hint at deeper economic trouble.
