Bank of America (BAC.US)
Revenue came in at $26.3 billion (consensus: $25.2 billion)
Adjusted EPS was $0.94, up from $0.80 a year earlier (consensus: $0.81).
Deposits fell from $2.07 trillion a year ago to $1.91 trillion.
- Net interest income, however, was 25% higher at $14.4 billion, in line with expectations of analysts surveyed by FactSet, thanks to higher interest rates and "solid" loan growth Bank of America beat analysts' estimates for the first quarter, thanks to strong interest income.
- By business segment, consumer banking revenues rose 21% to $10.7 billion, global banking revenues rose 48% to $2.6 billion, global markets revenues rose 6% to $5.6 billion, while global wealth and investment management revenues fell 3% to $5.3 billion.

Goldman Sachs (GS.US)
Revenue was $12.22 billion versus expectations of $12.79 billion
EPS was $8.79 per share versus expectations of $8.10
- Goldman Sachs reported that net income rise 18% to $3.23 billion, beating estimates of Refinitiv analysts. But on the other hand, revenues fell 5% and were below estimates due to a decline in consumer loan volume and weaker-than-expected bond trading results.
- Unlike its more diversified rivals, Goldman derives most of its revenue from its Wall Street operations, mainly from trading and investment banking. Before the quarter began, analysts wondered whether the March turmoil - in which two U.S. banks collapsed and the global investment bank was forced to merge with a longtime rival - would be a good or bad backdrop for it's investment and trading activities.
- Revenue from equity trading fell 7% to $3.02 billion, exceeding estimates by $2.9 billion. Also investment banking revenues remained weak, falling 26% from a year ago to $1.58 billion, but were above market expectations of $1.44 billion;
- Securities trading revenue for the quarter fell 17% to $3.93 billion, about $230 million below StreetAccount's estimates, due to lower activity in the foreign exchange and commodities markets.
So far this earnings season, large banks have mostly outperformed their smaller competitors, helped by an influx of deposits following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank. However, with retail banking playing a small - and likely increasingly smaller - role at Goldman, more attention should be focused on how commercial and investment banking have performed. And these have performed poorly.
