February 2, 2017

Bad News:  Deutsche Bank posted a net loss of 1.9 billion euros ($2.05 billion) for its 4th quarter, missing analyst expectations.

Good News:  DB reported improved results for the whole of 2016 in what has been a trying year for the bank.

 

Deutsche Bank's full-year net loss was 1.4 billion euros, versus a net loss of 6.8 billion euros in 2015, with CEO John Cryan s saying that the bank "finished 2016 with pleasingly strong capital and liquidity ratios." Investors responded negatively the the news, driving down the market price of DB shares by as much as 6% - though share prices recouped some of the loss before the closing bell.
