Confirming evidence

  • Sentiment remains the lead driver in the composite, 7D delta +4.7.

Contradictions & invalidation

  • Criticized loans rose to 2.69% of loans from 2.52% sequentially and 2.40% year over year.
  • Deposit pricing competition, higher linked-quarter borrowings, and rate changes could pressure funding costs and net interest margin.
  • Revenue missed the reported consensus, net interest margin declined one basis point sequentially, and credit risk remains the key issue: nonperforming assets rose to $32.7 million and criticized loans to 2.69% of loans.
