Wells Fargo misses interest income estimates as deposit costs bite, shares slump
Net interest income (NII) ― or the difference between what a bank earns on loans and pays out for deposits ― slid 9 percent to $11.92 billion. Analysts on average had expected $12.12 billion, according to LSEG data.
Average deposit costs jumped to 1.84 percent from 0.71 percent in the year-ago quarter, the bank said.
