Citigroup joined four other big banks in reporting strong results for the quarter. After paying preferred dividends, the bank earned $3 billion, or 49 cents per share. It lost $2.59 billion, or 55 cents per share, during the same quarter last year.
(That seems good)
However, Citi's profit was not driven by improved trading like other banks, and instead came from the gain on the sale of its Smith Barney unit and the increasing values of some of its riskier assets that had plunged during the credit crisis. The New York-based bank recorded an after-tax gain of $6.7 billion on the sale of a majority stake in its Smith Barney brokerage unit to Morgan Stanley.
