, where the run-rate of $6.6 billion in annual investment banking revenue pales next to 2019’s $7.6 billion.

So far, the slump has been more than offset by lively markets. Revenue from flipping stocks and bonds rose 15% at JPMorgan in the second quarter, year-on-year, and over 20% at Morgan Stanley, towering over shrunken deal fees.
