Time to Buy This Big Bank?
The following video is from Monday's MarketFoolery podcast, in which host Chris Hill and analysts Jason Moser and Matt Argersinger discuss the top business and investing stories of the day.
Citigroup's first-quarter profit was up a better-than-expected 30% thanks to strength in the company's investment banking business.
