WaFd beat fiscal Q2 earnings estimates on higher revenues, but the report was tempered by declines in loans and deposits, rising expenses, and weaker credit quality. The quarter shows some operational strength, but underlying fundamentals remain mixed. The earnings beat is likely to matter for the stock, though the negative balance-sheet and credit trends limit the upside.
