Is Everybody passing the Bank Stress Test?

The results are now in on the Bank Stress Test. The Federal Reserve announced this plan for the stress test back in February allowing to look at the financials of our nation's largest financial institutions.

The test revealed the bank's capital adequacy in the event of a hypothetical worst case economic scenario over two years. The test showed that under a particularly long lasting and dire economic scenario, this is what the test showed us about the the top 10 financial institutions:

1. Bank of America- would need $33.9 billion

2. Wells Fargo- would need $13.7 Billion

3. GMAC- would need $11.5 billion

4. Citigroup- would need $5.5 billion

5. Regions Financial- would need $2.5 billion

6. Sun Trust- would need $2.2 billion

7. Morgan Stanley- would need $1.8 billion

8. KeyCorp- would $1.8 billion

9. Fifth Third Bancorp- would need $1.1 billion

10.PNC- would need $600 million
