A quartet of large American banks smashed expectations in their quarterly earnings reports Friday, sending their respective stocks surging as investors regain confidence in the industry marred by regional bank struggles last month.JPMorgan, Citigroup, Wells Fargo and PNC – the first, third, fourth and sixth largest U.S. banks by assets—disclosed their latest financial data Friday morning, handily beating consensus profit estimates, and all but PNC beating revenue forecasts.
Their stocks largely rose in early trading, with JPMorgan’s 7% gain leading the way, while shares of Citi and Wells Fargo popped 4% and 1%, respectively, while PNC slipped 2%.

The 10 largest banks have now gained $94 billion in market capitalization over the last three weeks, as of 9:45 a.m. ET, recovering much of the $291 billion the grouping lost between March 1 and March 24.Friday kicked off a particularly pivotal earnings season for banks after March featured the second and third-largest bank failures in the nation’s history.
