I want to focus on how the large bank

0:01

results are of particular importance

0:03

because they provide great insight into

0:05

the state of the current credit cycle.

0:08

The four large banks, JP Morgan, City,

0:10

Wells, and Bank of America, have large

0:11

and broad-based lending businesses. On

0:14

the consumer side, they provide credit

0:15

cards, auto loans, and several other

0:18

types of consumer loans. IBM was down

0:20

25% on this news on Tuesday, its worst

0:22

day ever, and it took the entire

0:24

software sector down [music] with it.

0:26

Another side to the same coin was the

0:27

results at Ericsson, which develops

0:30

network equipment and software. The

0:31

stock was down double digits on Tuesday

0:34

on its earnings report. Netflix reported

0:36

Thursday night. Netflix reported EPS and

0:39

revenue in line with expectations. EPS

0:41

was up 11%, which is nice, but not like

0:44

the go-go days. I'm starting to think

0:47

that the entire future of the US economy

0:49

hinges on the success or failure of AI.

0:52

That's why I talk about it so much.
