Bank of America $100bn loss after big bet in bond market

 according to data from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The sum far exceeds unrealised bond market losses reported by its largest peers.

BofA has said it has no plans to sell the underwater bonds, avoiding crystallised losses that for now exist only on paper.

BofA has $370bn in cash and is not facing any SVB-like liquidity crunch.

BofA, like other peers, also fared well in the Fed’s annual stress tests, the results of which were released on Wednesday.

A BofA spokesperson declined to comment.
