After dominating the mortgage business throughout 2012, Wells Fargo (NYSE: WFC ) and JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM ) both reported lower mortgage banking revenue for the first quarter of 2013. While these megabanks lost ground, smaller rival M&T Bank (NYSE: MTB ) posted a 66% increase in mortgage banking revenue. Is this a sign of the largest banks losing their competitive advantage?

Additionally, the five top lenders, Ally Financial, Bank of America (NYSE: BAC ) , Citigroup (NYSE: C ) , JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM ) , and Wells Fargo (NYSE: WFC ) , have mostly fulfilled�the terms of the National Mortgage Settlement, the $25 billion mortgage-fraud pact signed last February. Without the added requirements of that pact slowing them down, banks are able to process foreclosures more quickly these days. Of the signatories, only Citi�did not increase the number of repossessions last month.

There were a few sound bites that took bank stocks down today, first being continued drops in the Japanese and other Asian markets. As we learned in the past weeks, Asian market weakness is a concern for bank investors. With Citigroup (NYSE: C ) generating nearly 20% of its revenue in Asian operations, it is more exposed to the slowing economies of that market than any other bank. Both Bank of America (NYSE: BAC ) and JPMorgan (NYSE: JPM ) have Asian segments as well, but their total revenue is only reliant on that area for 4% and 6%, respectively. - [By John Maxfield]

Global recession notwithstanding, International Paper has re-imagined itself as a strong cash generator. I focus upon Free-Cash-Flow (FCF), thereby subtracting routine capital expenditures from Operating Cash.
