Bank of America reported a charge-off ratio of 0.47%, down from 0.55% a year earlier, and its non-performing loan ratio fell to 0.47% from 0.52%. Wells Fargo's net charge-off ratio dropped to 0.34% from 0.44% a year ago, while its non-performing loan ratio held at 0.77%. JPMorgan Chase saw its net charge-off ratio edge up slightly to 1.51% from 1.48% a year ago, but its credit card non-performing loan ratio improved to 1% from 1.07%. Citigroup's general-purpose card non-performing loan rate rose to 1.3% from 1.21% a year earlier, though its private-label card rate dipped to 2% from 2.08% in the prior quarter. Overall, credit metrics across these institutions suggest consumer health remains strong, though Citigroup's card trends warrant continued monitoring.
