It can be said that the profit wave of fresh new bank in the U.S. is the result from the efforts of the Government in this country to the financial sector back from “death cõi. The interest rate very low now prompted a number of large customers to find the loan the new flags. Scope of investment banking activities and transactions flourishes again many thanks to the U.S. to launch only with credit markets. Before the test results financial capacity of 19 U.S. banks were announced, some banks, including Goldman Sachs, have tried to pay money to aid the Government.

However, there are only traces am lonely on a dark color picture. Millions of customers loan bank in the U.S. continue to fall in failure. These loss in lending new business start process clamber.

Profit JPMorgan Chase’s 1 in the last quarter was 2.1 billion USD, exceeding the forecast of the previous observations.

However, even stars, before the test results above are made, the price of shares of U.S. banks in the transaction are recent witnessed a strong recovery.
