Overview of the Banking Sector in the US

According to the latest data by the Federal Reserve System, the total assets for large domestically chartered commercial banks stood at $13.48 trillion as of April 10, 2024. The total assets for small domestically chartered banks were $6.64 trillion as of the same date. Assets of the large commercial banks between January 2015 and March 2023 increased from $9.1 trillion to $13.2 trillion. This translates to an asset increase of around 44.8%. Assets of small commercial banks increased from $3.6 trillion to $7 trillion in the same period, reporting a 94.5% increase. The report also shows a 22.7% increase in the assets of foreign-related institutions active in the United States between January 2015 and March 2023. Their total assets went from $2.5 trillion in 2015 to $3.1 trillion in 2023.

However, the ratio of the total assets of large banks in comparison with small banks was 2.56. It dropped to 1.90 by March, 2023. These recent trends show a shift of assets from the 25 largest commercial banks in the United States to the smaller banks. March 2023 sent ripples of a banking turmoil throughout the US and global banking sector, with Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) collapsing. The First Republic Bank (FRB) and Signature Bank (SBNY) followed SVB’s lead, making the failure the biggest bank collapse after Washington Mutual Bank’s ordeal in 2008. Silicon Valley Bank ranked at the 16th position before its failure on March 10, 2023. It had assets worth $194.51 billion at the time. Similarly, Signature Bank ranked as the 29th largest bank in the United States by assets before it failed on March 12, 2024. The bank had total assets worth $110.36 billion.

Key Players in the Banking Sector

JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM), Bank of America Corporation (NYSE:BAC), and Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) rank among some of the largest banks in the world, and the United States. As of December 31, 2023, JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) had total assets worth $3.89 trillion, making it the largest bank in the United States by asset size. As of March 31, 2023, the bank had $303 billion in stockholders’ equity. On April 12, 2024, JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) reported financial results for the first quarter of FY 2024. The bank reported a revenue of $42.5 billion. Its net income reached $14.0 billion, and reduced to $13.4 billion after excluding the increase of $725 million to the FDIC special assessment. Here is what Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM), had to say:

“We reported strong results in the first quarter, delivering net income of $13.4 billion, or $14.0 billion excluding a $725 million increase to the FDIC special assessment. Last month, we announced a 10% increase in the common dividend. Our exceptionally high CET1 capital ratio of 15.0% and peer-leading returns provide us with the capacity and flexibility to both reinvest for growth and maintain an attractive capital-return profile, without compromising our fortress balance sheet.

This quarter, NII declined 4% sequentially, and as expected, NII ex. Markets declined 2% sequentially due to deposit margin compression and lower deposit balances, mostly in CCB. Looking ahead, we expect normalization to continue for both NII and credit costs.

Our lines of business saw strong underlying performance. In CCB, client investment assets were up 25% excluding First Republic, and we continued to add new customers. In CIB, IB fees increased 21%, reflecting improved DCM and ECM activity. In CB, we saw strong growth in Payments fees and onboarded a significant number of new client relationships. Finally, in AWM, asset management fees were up 14%, with continued strong net inflows.”

Bank of America Corporation (NYSE:BAC) reported total assets worth 3.15 trillion as of December 31, 2023. On April 16, the company reported its financial earnings for the first quarter of 2024. The bank reported a net income of $6.7 billion, which comes up to $0.76 per diluted share. This included FDIC’s special assessment expense accrual to compensate for the losses of Signature Bank and Silicon Valley Bank failures. It reported a net income of $7.2 billion excluding this expense. Here are some comments from Bank of America Corporation’s (NYSE:BAC) Q1 2024 earnings call:

“During the quarter, we paid out $1.9 billion in common dividends and we bought back $2.5 billion in shares, which more than offset our employee awards. As part of those share awards in the first quarter, we announced our seventh consecutive year of share and success compensation awards, covering more than 95% of our associates and further aligning their interests with shareholders. Tangible book value per share of $24.79 is up 9% year-over-year. Looking at regulatory capital, our CET-1 level improved to $197 billion from December 31, and the CET-1 ratio was stable at 11.8% and remained well above our current 10% requirement. We also remain quite well positioned against the current proposed capital rules as our CET-1 level is also above the 10% requirement even when we include estimated RWA inflation from those new proposed rules.”

Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) is another key player in the banking sector. It reported $1.90 trillion in total assets as of December 31, 2023, making it one of the largest bank in the United States by asset size. On April 12, 2024, Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) also reported its earnings for the first quarter of 2024. It reported a net income of $4.6 billion, which comes up to $1.02 per diluted share. The bank also announced a total revenue of $20.863 billion in Q1 of FY2024, up from $20.729 billion in Q1 of FY2023. Here are some comments from Wells Fargo & Company’s (NYSE:WFC) Q1 2024 earnings call:

“We continue to see strength in the US economy. Spending patterns of consumers using our debit and credit cards remain generally consistent and continue to grow year-over-year. Consumer credit is performing as we expect. Wholesale credit continues to perform well and our views around commercial real estate have not significantly changed since last quarter. These are all positives. In addition, we remain committed and confident in our ability to increase efficiencies across the enterprise and areas we have targeted for investments such as credit card, investment banking and trading are performing well. We are beginning to see early signs of share and fee growth, which will be important as we diversify our revenues and reduce net interest income as a percentage of revenue.”

AI, Tariffs, Nuclear Power: One Undervalued Stock Connects ALL the Dots (Before It Explodes!)

Published on June 23, 2025 at by Inan Dogan, PhD

Artificial intelligence is the greatest investment opportunity of our lifetime. The time to invest in groundbreaking AI is now, and this stock is a steal!

AI is eating the world—and the machines behind it are ravenous.

Each ChatGPT query, each model update, each robotic breakthrough consumes massive amounts of energy. In fact, AI is already pushing global power grids to the brink.

Wall Street is pouring hundreds of billions into artificial intelligence—training smarter chatbots, automating industries, and building the digital future. But there’s one urgent question few are asking:

Where will all of that energy come from?

AI is the most electricity-hungry technology ever invented. Each data center powering large language models like ChatGPT consumes as much energy as a small city. And it’s about to get worse.

Even Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, issued a stark warning:

“The future of AI depends on an energy breakthrough.”

Elon Musk was even more blunt:

“AI will run out of electricity by next year.”

As the world chases faster, smarter machines, a hidden crisis is emerging behind the scenes. Power grids are strained. Electricity prices are rising. Utilities are scrambling to expand capacity.

And that’s where the real opportunity lies…

One little-known company—almost entirely overlooked by most AI investors—could be the ultimate backdoor play. It’s not a chipmaker. It’s not a cloud platform. But it might be the most important AI stock in the US owns critical energy infrastructure assets positioned to feed the coming AI energy spike.

As demand from AI data centers explodes, this company is gearing up to profit from the most valuable commodity in the digital age: electricity.

The “Toll Booth” Operator of the AI Energy Boom

It owns critical nuclear energy infrastructure assets, positioning it at the heart of America’s next-generation power strategy.
It’s one of the only global companies capable of executing large-scale, complex EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) projects across oil, gas, renewable fuels, and industrial infrastructure.
It plays a pivotal role in U.S. LNG exportation—a sector about to explode under President Trump’s renewed “America First” energy doctrine.

Trump has made it clear: Europe and U.S. allies must buy American LNG.

And our company sits in the toll booth—collecting fees on every drop exported.

But that’s not all…

As Trump’s proposed tariffs push American manufacturers to bring their operations back home, this company will be first in line to rebuild, retrofit, and reengineer those facilities.

AI. Energy. Tariffs. Onshoring. This One Company Ties It All Together.

While the world is distracted by flashy AI tickers, a few smart investors are quietly scooping up shares of the one company powering it all from behind the scenes.

AI needs energy. Energy needs infrastructure.

And infrastructure needs a builder with experience, scale, and execution.

This company has its finger in every pie—and Wall Street is just starting to notice.

Wall Street is noticing this company also because it is quietly riding all of these tailwinds—without the sky-high valuation.

While most energy and utility firms are buried under mountains of debt and coughing up hefty interest payments just to appease bondholders…

This company is completely debt-free.

In fact, it’s sitting on a war chest of cash—equal to nearly one-third of its entire market cap.

It also owns a huge equity stake in another red-hot AI play, giving investors indirect exposure to multiple AI growth engines without paying a premium.

And here’s what the smart money has started whispering…

The Hedge Fund Secret That’s Starting to Leak Out

This stock is so off-the-radar, so absurdly undervalued, that some of the most secretive hedge fund managers in the world have begun pitching it at closed-door investment summits.

They’re sharing it quietly, away from the cameras, to rooms full of ultra-wealthy clients.

Why? Because excluding cash and investments, this company is trading at less than 7 times earnings.

And that’s for a business tied to:

The AI infrastructure supercycle
The onshoring boom driven by Trump-era tariffs
A surge in U.S. LNG exports
And a unique footprint in nuclear energy—the future of clean, reliable power

You simply won’t find another AI and energy stock this cheap… with this much upside.

This isn’t a hype stock. It’s not riding on hope.

It’s delivering real cash flows, owns critical infrastructure, and holds stakes in other major growth stories.

This is your chance to get in before the rockets take off!

Disruption is the New Name of the Game: Let’s face it, complacency breeds stagnation.

AI is the ultimate disruptor, and it’s shaking the foundations of traditional industries.

The companies that embrace AI will thrive, while the dinosaurs clinging to outdated methods will be left in the dust.

As an investor, you want to be on the side of the winners, and AI is the winning ticket.

The Talent Pool is Overflowing: The world’s brightest minds are flocking to AI.

From computer scientists to mathematicians, the next generation of innovators is pouring its energy into this field.

This influx of talent guarantees a constant stream of groundbreaking ideas and rapid advancements.

By investing in AI, you’re essentially backing the future.

The future is powered by artificial intelligence, and the time to invest is NOW.

Don’t be a spectator in this technological revolution.
