The banking industry was all up.   $Wells Fargo & Co (WFC.US)$ and $JPMorgan (JPM.US)$ climbed on surprizzing earngins beats.   $Bank of America (BAC.US)$  and   $Citigroup (C.US)$ climbed though their earnings are due next Tuesday. $Blackrock (BLK.US)$ said it had $11T assets under management in its Friday report.
