The FDIC Quarterly Banking Profile Report Is Out

From The Distilled Perspective of Patrick T Bulger, Capital Management & Analytics

At it’s most simple look, the current below zero condition seems like it might deserve a closer look.

Then, for context, I look back to 2008, Hmmmm.

What conclusion did you come to?

Final Wrap: 

Distilled data is for the high level thinkers & delegators. 
Narratives, stories & bluster are built for The Herd. 

I manage capital for those who demand quality in their decision chain. 
If you are an intentionally advanced thinker, 
It’s time for a risk discussion, because your money matters to you.
