1-Minute Earnings Preview: Capital One

Capital One (NYSE: COF) will be reporting earnings this Thursday, and in this video, Motley Fool financial analyst Matt Koppenheffer tells us what to watch for. With banking fees being less of a revenue driver for Capital One, the income it makes on its interest is going to be the most important number to watch. And while its interest margin is wider than most, it's still being influenced by the interest margin squeeze affecting the entire sector.

While this may be the year that the banks start to look enticing again to investors, we here at The Motley Fool want this to be the year your portfolio dominates in every sector. Make sure you start 2013 with a bang and get the inside scoop on what Motley Fool Superinvestor David Gardner will be buying this year.
