Bank of America reported total assets of $3,499 billion (about $3.5 trillion) at the end of Q2 2026, but its Q3 2026 figure, reported October 14, 2026 before the post date, was $3,428 billion (about $3.4 trillion).

Badlands Media · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Contradicts. The Q3 2026 8-K shows total assets of $3,428 billion, and the Q3 2026 earnings call describes total assets as $3.4 trillion, down 2% from Q2. This is the most recent figure before the October 21 post.[2][3]
Supports. The 8-K presentation materials give total assets of $3,499 billion at 2Q26, and MarketBeat lists $3,499,191 million for Q2 2026, both matching $3.5 trillion.[2][4]
Supports. Business Quant reports assets of $3.5 trillion for Q2 2026, and the Q2 2026 earnings call transcript describes ending assets as steady at $3.5 trillion.[5][6]
Context. Annual 2025 total assets were $3.41 trillion, so the $3.5 trillion figure is roughly 2% above the latest reported quarter and close to the prior quarter's level.[1][4]
