Bank of America posts net loss of $7.3 billion in latest quarter, citing provisions of the financial reform law.

I would say that this is rather significant. What they are really saying is now that there is a demand for truth in lending and full disclosure, they can no longer make the windfall profits they were making. Gee, they can no longer cheat the consumer!

They're all over the place in Giggle Search...

This one is good as any on the first page...

Bank of America Corporation today reported a net loss of $7.3 billion, or $0.77 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2010, including a non-cash, non-tax deductible goodwill impairment charge of $10.4 billion.

About the Goodwill Impairment Charge

As previously announced, the goodwill impairment charge is a non-cash, non-tax deductible charge applicable to the Global Card Services segment. The goodwill impairment charge does not impact regulatory capital or tangible equity ratios or liquidity, and has no impact on the company's ability to serve its customers and clients around the world. The charge results from the limits to be placed on debit interchange fees under the financial reform legislation enacted in July 2010, which will reduce future revenues in the Global Card Services business.

No, I take it to show that now that they have to be honest and above-board with their customers, they can't make as much money. Before there were regulations they were doing whatever they wanted, no matter how much they screwed the consumer.
 
So, basically, they are not posting a loss...they are projecting future losses against their prior projections of fucking every person they could?
 
How are consumers helped if Bank of Amerca gets the hell out of consumer lending because they can't keep losing money?

They're not necessarily losing money. They just no longer can make record-breaking profits at the expense of the consumer.

Do you prefer that there were no regulations and the banks could do whatever they wanted to cheat you? The "losses" they claim to have sustained rather proves that that was exactly what they have been doing.
 
Losing $73M is a sustainable business model?

It is to this bunch.. just look at what they are doing in the public sector!!!

Of course, this is what you get from a bunch who has never had to earn a dime in their lives....

Ok, who on this board has been cheated by BOA?

You said they posted a $7.3 billion loss. How do you conclude that they are not necessarily losing money?
