JP Morgan Chase reported earnings of 1.48 versus a consensus estimate of 1.16,and revenue of 24.37 billion dollars versus an estimate of 24.41 billion.We think that the numbers were good,in line,said Jason Goldberg,CFA,an analyst at Barclays.Mortgage results continue to be the story.Asset management and commercial banking also had a good quarter.
We have an overweight on the stock.We think you'll see several metrics in the right direction.They're growing the top and bottom lines.Not too bad.It is trading well below tangible book value.
The stock has outperformed the market and the sector since Jamie Dimon joined as CEO.It's certainly one of our favourites in 2013.We also like Citigroup and US Bank.
Gerard Cassidy of RBC Capital Markets thinks Citigroup is in a good position to obtain some capital return for shareholders.Their Q4 report as well as their reducing exposure to risky assets over the past 2-3 years will support their case with regulators.
JP Morgan Chase was at 46.14 in afterhours Wednesday trading,down 0.09;while Citigroup was at 41.85,down 0.17;and US Bank was at 32.70,down 0.39.
