So far the signs of revival has not translated into strong investment banking revenue, but markets see a better outlook. Goldman took $1.4 billion in writedowns in the second quarter tied to its consumer businesses and real estate investments. In discussing their earnings, Wall Street executives cited a flurry of initial public offerings as an encouraging sign that activity in capital markets will pick up after months in the doldrums. The lender was buoyed by a slight pickup in equity capital markets and a focus on its middle-market business. At Citigroup (C.N), CEO Jane Fraser warned on Friday that "the long-awaited rebound in investment banking has yet to materialize."

The euro , which jumped 2.4% last week to a 16-month high, held just below that peak at $1.1223. The yen , also up 2.4% last week, held at 138.56 per dollar. The Australian and New Zealand dollars pulled back slightly, with the Aussie last at $0.6821 - off last week's peak of $0.6895 - and the kiwi down 0.2% at $0.6355 after hitting a five-month high of $0.6412 on Friday. The Swedish and Norwegian crowns made gains of more than 5% on the dollar last week, and have paused for breath. "By then other major central banks including the ECB will also likely have reached their peak policy rates ... interest rate dynamics may therefore swing back in favour of the dollar."

Why Citigroup's shift to wealth management is a risky bet

Citigroup instead announced its plans to divert resources and double down on wealth management. Despite the shift in strategy, though, Citigroup's investment in wealth management hasn't started to pay off. In 2022, the firm expected global wealth management to generate a compound annual revenue growth in the high single digits to low teens. But, instead, Citigroup's wealth management revenue fell 5% year over year in the second quarter of 2023. I think it's to be determined how this wealth management strategy plays out."

Jamie Dimon, the bank’s chief executive, has deep political connections, and his prognostications on the economy are scrutinized in some circles as closely as a central banker’s musings. The U.S. economy “continues to perform better than many had expected,” said Charles W. Scharf, the bank’s chief executive. Unlike the other banks, Citigroup reported a fall in second-quarter profit, although the decline was not as severe as analysts had predicted. The U.S. government debt-limit standoff in April and May was also reflected in the banks’ results, with Citi citing anxiety during the negotiations as pushing investment-banking clients to the “sidelines” during the second quarter. What’s NextIn the next week or so, a slew of other banks will report quarterly earnings.

Federal banking regulators are expected to introduce proposals in the coming weeks requiring banks to keep more cash on hand to ensure the financial system remains stable. The nation's largest lender may increase prices or abandon some products as a way to offset the higher capital costs, Barnum said. One key new expected rule would require banks to hold more capital against certain trades. Meanwhile, banks are staying cautious and preserving capital until there is more clarity around the rules. Wells Fargo was expecting capital requirements to climb and weighing the potential effect on stock buybacks, CEO Charlie Scharf told investors on its call.

Share Share Article via Facebook Share Article via Twitter Share Article via LinkedIn Share Article via EmailHow Citigroup is planning its comebackSince the company's collapse during the 2008 recession, Citigroup's stock has continuously struggled, with shares falling more than 30% over the past five years. In response, Jane Fraser, the CEO of Citigroup, announced a bold shift in company strategy, doubling down on wealth management while exiting 14 consumer markets outside of the United States since April 2021. So has Citi's bet paid off and can the onetime financial colossus return to its former glory?

Citigroup shares rose in premarket on Friday after the bank reported second-quarter earnings and revenue that topped expectations. Earnings per share: $1.33 vs. $1.30Revenue: $19.44 billion vs. $19.29 billionShares of Citigroup climbed more than 1% in premarket trading. While beating Street estimates, Citi's revenue dipped 1% from a year ago as the decline in markets and investment banking businesses weighed on the result. "In Banking, the long-awaited rebound in Investment Banking has yet to materialize, making for a disappointing quarter." On the bright side, revenue from personal banking and wealth management increased 6% in the quarter to $6.4 billion driven by strong loan growth.

U.S. inflation data is due later on Wednesday, with expectations core consumer prices rose 5% on an annual basis in June. The figures should also provide further clarity on the Federal Reserve's progress in its fight against inflation. "We're already seeing markets move in anticipation of a softer U.S. inflation report," said Matt Simpson, senior market analyst at City Index. "Speculation of a possible tweak could allow the yen some support ahead of the BOJ meeting this month."

"The (RBNZ) statement and minutes retained their dovish undertone overall, but they can't not warn that inflation is still 'too high' as they need to contain inflation expectations," said Matt Simpson, senior market analyst at City Index. The broader market focus remained on U.S. inflation data due later on Wednesday, with expectations for core consumer prices to have risen 5% on an annual basis in June. "We're already seeing markets move in anticipation of a softer U.S. inflation report," said City Index's Simpson. U.S. Treasury yields came under pressure on Wednesday, with the two-year yield and benchmark 10-year yield settling below 5% and 4%, respectively.

A white powder was found inside the White House late Sunday, which led to a temporary closure. Firefighters identified the material as "cocaine hydrochloride," the Washington Post reported. The Secret Service told Reuters an "unknown" item was indeed found there. The material was found in the West Wing, the spokesperson added, which is a part of the White House connected to the executive mansion, where the president lives. According to the Washington Post, a Washington DC firefighter on the hazardous materials team said the test results for the substance showed "a yellow bar saying cocaine hydrochloride."

Opinion | How to Stave Off Constitutional Extinction
  + stars: | 2023-07-01 | by ( Jill Lepore | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +5 min
From the very start, Americans proposed amendments. The U.S. Constitution was itself an act of amendment, written in 1787 because the Articles of Confederation were technically amendable but, for all practical purposes, not. What would be the national disgrace if … a vile Negro should come to rule over us?” These possibilities were, to Brackenridge, absurd. The rejected Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork once explained how originalists think about the Constitution and the historical record. Mecom’s biblical plea for nonviolence, for beating swords into plowshares, can be read as the constitutional preference of a constituency — women — unrepresented at the convention.

JPMorgan, the biggest U.S. lender, plans to increase its quarterly stock dividend to $1.05 per share from a current $1.00. Wells Fargo will boost its dividend to 35 cents a share from 30 cents, the companies said. Goldman Sachs' dividend will rise to $2.75 a share from $2.50, while Morgan Stanley's will increase to 85 cents a share from the current 77.5 cents. Citigroup's stress capital buffer (SCB) requirement rose to 4.3%, from a current 4.0%, contrasting with large peers whose SCB dropped. "While we would have clearly preferred not to see an increase in our stress capital buffer, these results still demonstrate Citi’s financial resilience through all economic environments," Fraser said.

But all the deals and pomp of the visit — including an address to Congress and a lavish state dinner — may not have accomplished what the White House had wanted. U.S. leaders gave Modi a hearty welcome, as Washington seeks to nudge India further into the American sphere of influence. “The partnership is among the most consequential in the world,” Biden said at a news conference on Thursday. Biden and Modi largely brushed off criticism of the Indian government’s crackdown on human rights and religious freedom. And Modi made no pledges to endorse U.S. efforts to restrain China, nor to cut ties to Russia.

LONDON/SINGAPORE (Reuters) - The dollar fell slightly on Tuesday as investors awaited U.S. inflation data, while China’s yuan slipped to a six-month low after the central bank lowered a short-term lending rate to boost the economy. That helped push the dollar index, which measures the currency against six peers, down 0.26% to 103.32. The onshore yuan bottomed at 7.168 per dollar, its lowest since last November, and last traded at 7.152. Its offshore counterpart weakened to a new six-month low of 7.178, before paring its losses slightly. The Aussie dollar rose more than 0.4% to its highest since May 11 at $0.679, and was last at $0.678.

June 12 (Reuters) - 'De-risk, not decouple' are the new buzzwords for Western policy toward China, drawing skepticism from Beijing about whether there is any difference between the two. Whether that involves a complete separation or something short of that depends on the business and its direct and indirect exposure to China, the executives said. So while Sequoia took the route of separation, many other major business executives have traveled to China in recent weeks to meet staff, clients and officials.

REUTERS/Jason XueSHANGHAI/BEIJING, June 8 (Reuters) - China is open for investment, the country's top financial regulators told foreign financiers at a high-profile forum in Shanghai on Thursday, as concerns mount among foreign firms that they may no longer be welcome. "Opening up is China's long-term national policy, and the door of China's financial industry will only be opened wider and wider." Yi Huiman, chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, told forum participants that China will "adamantly" push for deregulation in terms of market access, institution qualification and products. Internal circulation will be supported by "external circulation," as in foreign financing and China's interactions with the global economy.
