Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Profits are climbing: net income rose 27% to $9.1 billion in the June 2026 quarter on trading and dealmaking.
  • Tech careers have budget behind them: $4 billion of Bank of America's $13 billion yearly tech spend funds new initiatives.
  • Cheap funding cushions profits: $530 billion of its $2.03 trillion in deposits paid no interest at June 2026.

  • AI is reshaping jobs: over 200,000 employees use AI tools, sending 400,000-plus prompts daily as of July 2026.

What makes Bank of America unique

  • Small firms bank here: it serves 4 million small businesses and calls itself the top US small business lender.
  • Wealth management is a second engine: Merrill, its brokerage, and the Private Bank oversee about $4.9 trillion in client balances.

iPhone Duo waits are 50 days at US carriers versus 102 at Apple, Bank of America says

Buyers of Apple's iPhone Duo foldable may wait far less by ordering through US carriers. A Bank of America note dated October 19 puts the average carrier wait at about 50 days, against 102 days on Apple's own store. The global weighted average wait stands at 82 days. China, Japan, the UK, Germany, France and Australia all show 95 days, pushing delivery to about January 22. Analyst Wamsi Mohan said carrier availability "appears to be much better than Apple's own website," possibly due to varying inventory allocations. Carrier purchases usually tie buyers to that carrier's instalment plan. Wait times for the iPhone 18 Pro are shrinking, falling to eight days globally and four in China. Apple reports September quarter results on November 2.

Bank of America returns to bond market days after $8B sale with perpetual notes

Bank of America Corp. has launched its second investment-grade bond sale in days, offering perpetual notes after last week's $8 billion capital raising. The bonds would be first callable in five years. Initial price talks point to a yield of 7.5% to 7.625%, according to a person familiar with the matter. The bank sold $2.5 billion of similar notes in July 2025 at a 6.25% yield. Markets are uncertain, with fresh AI-fuelled worries pushing stocks lower. The bank's shares closed Monday at their lowest since May 15, extending a post-earnings decline. Its stock and fixed-income traders missed estimates, and it disclosed a $1.2 billion charge for fines over money laundering and sanctions violations. The bank has sold $25 billion of investment-grade notes this year.

Goldman Sachs vs Bank of America: why the investment bank is the better 2026 buy

Bank of America and Goldman Sachs offer two ways to bet on financials in 2026: steady retail banking or market-driven investment banking. A Motley Fool writer favours Goldman, which has beaten both Bank of America and the S&P 500. In fiscal 2025, Bank of America's revenue fell about 0.5% to nearly $191.6 billion, with net income of nearly $30.5 billion. Goldman's revenue fell 1.4% to about $125.1 billion, with net income of close to $17.2 billion. Goldman's debt-to-equity ratio is roughly 4.9, against nearly 1.2 at Bank of America. Goldman's free cash flow was negative $47.2 billion; Bank of America's was nearly $12.6 billion. Bank of America looks cheaper on forward P/E and P/S ratios. It also faced a $1.2 billion regulatory charge in 2026, while Goldman reached a $500 million shareholder litigation settlement.

Bank of America hit with $1.2B Treasury penalty over $5B in unreported suspicious transactions

Bank of America faces more than $1.21 billion in penalties from the US Treasury Department for failing to report more than $5 billion in suspicious transactions over several years. Some of the activity was linked to Chinese money laundering networks and operations along the southwest border. The penalty is the third-largest in Treasury history. It includes a $750 million civil money penalty from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the largest the OCC has levied against any bank. Regulators said problems continued after the bank signed a 2024 cease-and-desist order. The bank admitted it willfully violated the Bank Secrecy Act. The charge will cut third-quarter net income by about 17 cents per share. Chief executive officer Brian Moynihan said the bank has added thousands of staff and is deep into remediation. Third-quarter net income was $6.9 billion.
