President Biden has announced a new plan to forgive student loan debt. This revised plan aims to target specific groups of borrowers, including those facing financial hardship. It offers up to $20,000 of debt forgiveness for undergraduate loans and $20,000 for unpaid interest on federal loans. The plan is expected to face legal challenges, as the Supreme Court previously struck down a similar attempt.
Wells Fargo outperformed Wall Street estimates for its first-quarter earnings and revenue. The decline in its net interest income was offset by an increase in non-interest income. CEO Charlie Scharf highlighted the bank's progress in diversifying its financial performance. The bank also made significant share repurchases, contributing to a year-to-date stock gain of over 15%.
President Biden announced a revised plan to forgive student loans, which will benefit tens of millions of Americans. This plan is narrower than his original effort, but it targets specific borrowers with financial hardship or those who have been in repayment for a long time. The revised plan aims to forgive up to $20,000 of unpaid interest for borrowers and could erase or reduce balances for many. Biden hopes this effort will survive legal challenges and help address the burden of student debt in the country.
