There is no guaranteed right to banking services, and Andreessen and Musk both have a history of making inflammatory political statements. Last week, in a victory for the crypto industry, Trump said he would appoint the venture capitalist David Sacks, an industry ally, as his “White House A.I. Tom Williams / CQ-Roll Call via Getty Images fileTrump during the campaign wooed crypto industry support in part by talking about debanking. Still, his comment prompted others to share personal stories about losing access to banking services with no explanation and despite having good credit. At least one bank industry trade group says debanking is a real issue — and one that’s caused by government regulators’ pressure.

☆ Conflicting economic signals are causing confusion in the bond market
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-24 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

Bond market investors are having trouble figuring out an economy that looks good from 30,000 feet, but less so closer to the ground. Whether it's payrolls, gross domestic product or retail sales, or a host of other measures, growth looks solid, at the very least. On Wall Street, the general view was of concern: The Beige Book "showed no material improvement in a generally bleak outlook," Citigroup economist Andrew Hollenhorst wrote. However, if growth deteriorates, as the Beige Book indicates it has, that likely would push the Fed towards more reductions. "Despite recent stronger-than-expected data on U.S. employment, retail sales, and consumer inflation, the Fed's latest Beige Book signals a still weakening economy."

Top executives up and down across Wall Street have been talking for days about their predictions that Wall Street's bread-and-butter business of advising and financing deals could soon come roaring back. And the parade of optimism has only heated up this year as investment-banking revenues have started the slow climb from historical lows.

In this articleTed Pick, co-president of Morgan Stanley, speaks during a Bloomberg Television interview in New York, US, on Thursday, Oct. 26, 2023. Morgan Stanley is set to report second-quarter earnings before the opening bell Tuesday. The bank's massive wealth management business will be helped by high stock market values, which inflates the management fees the bank collects. On top of that, investment banking activity has picked up after a dismal 2023, which should provide a tailwind to the bank. Last week, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Citigroup each topped expectations for revenue and profit, a streak continued by Goldman Sachs on Monday, helped by a rebound in Wall Street activity.

Along with the top- and bottom-line numbers, Wall Street is also keeping close watch on net interest income and guidance. "We see the greatest sources of potential earnings upside being driven by higher loan growth and capital markets." Barclays analyst Goldberg anticipates a slight decrease in net interest income in the second quarter due to a compression in net interest margin. Last year, the company posted $21.9 billion in net interest income for the period. Despite expectations for seasonally lower trading, he also expects strong investment banking activity and net interest income to drive ongoing positive momentum.

The deal is expected to close in March 2025 and NatWest will receive an additional 125 million pounds payment from Sainsbury's at completion. Argos Financial Services (AFS) is also excluded from the deal, the retailer said, adding that its plans for this business will be announced at a future date. Sainsbury's expects to return excess capital of at least 250 million pounds to investors after the disposal and its future model for AFS is in place.
