Bank of America (BAC) - Get Report reported better than expected second quarter earnings Monday. Profit of $0.36 a share topped estimates of $0.33. Revenue fell 7.1 percent year-over-year to $20.4 billion, in line with estimates. 'Bank of America is perhaps the most sensitive to low interest rates,' said Michael Ingram, a market analyst with BGC Partners, based in London, adding that the revenue line for the banking sector is under intense pressure amid a slower pace of Federal Reserve rate hikes.
