I mean...what do you expect when most of your top performers have jumped ship in the last year? The only reason this has not shown up earlier is because the mandates these performers landed before they left are just now starting to no longer carry this dumpster fire of an IB franchise.
BofA receives a lot of hate on here of which some is valid and some is not. This is not.
You are in a banking forum. Take a look at their revenue trends instead of the headlines in a vacuum.
3Q25 reported as the top quarter of FY25 resulting in a challenging YoY quarterly comp and revenue down 10%.
2Q25 was the top quarter of FY26 with 50% YoY quarterly growth.
Down 10% off of a tough 3Q25 comp combined with a strong 1H seems like a solid year.
Except their peers are doing much better so you need to do a better job comparing on relative terms buddy.
