Confirming evidence

  • Sentiment remains the lead driver in the composite, 7D delta -1.5.

Contradictions & invalidation

  • Deposit growth was flat in Q2 and funding costs could pressure future NIM.
  • Higher-than-normal credit losses may persist beyond the two cited commercial credits.
  • The earnings reset was meaningful: EPS declined sequentially, provision expense and charge-offs increased, and nonperforming assets were elevated.
