WELLS FARGO: PROFITS RISE, BUT REVENUE DECLINES!

Their net income climbed 6% to $4.89 billion, with EPS spiking 16% to $1.39! It’s a mixed bag, folks! While they exceeded earnings projections, their revenue fell short of the mark.
CEO Charlie Scharf warns of a quieter storm brewing, saying they’re ready for whatever 2025 throws their way. But can they maintain their strength in this choppy financial environment?
