Earnings

Huntington Bancshares' net charge-off rate was 0.03% on June 30, which may be the 156-year-old company's lowest quarterly level ever, according to Chief Executive Steve Steinour. That contributed to its record $539 million 2Q profit.

The McLean, Virginia, company is starting to “trim around the edges” of its auto portfolio, CEO Richard Fairbank said. That move stands in contrast with Capital One's leaning into its credit card business, which helped push marketing spending above $1 billion.

The Cincinnati bank plans to lean into its retail expansion in the southeastern U.S. after its deposits fell by $6 billion from the first quarter.

The Cleveland company says a second-quarter decline in investment banking and debt placement revenues won’t change its plans to keep hiring bankers to expand that business.

The Georgia bank said inflationary pressures and interest rate hikes could erode interest among borrowers, particularly in the commercial real estate business. Total loans grew at a 12% clip in the second quarter.

Unlike some of its peers, the Dallas bank says the U.S. economy is strong, clients are upbeat and lending momentum continues.

The New York bank reported a double-digit increase in profits in the second quarter. But larger than expected deposit withdrawals — some by cryptocurrency-business customers — raised questions about its ability to fund growth and hurt its stock Tuesday.
