15:04 EDTBACFed says large banks must submit midyear stress tests on July 5
Eighteen large U.S. bank holding companies are required to submit the results of their company-run, midyear stress tests to the Federal Reserve on July 5, the Federal Reserve said. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act required that large bank holding companies and non-bank financial institutions that are designated for Federal Reserve supervision by the Financial Stability Oversight Council conduct two stress tests each year. In the midyear test, which is being conducted for the first time in 2013, each firm develops its own baseline, adverse, and severely adverse scenarios to best reflect its individual operations and risks. Each firm in the midyear test is required to release the results produced under its severely adverse scenario, helping promote market discipline and understanding of the financial conditions and risks of individual firms, between September 15 and September 30, the Fed added.

16:39 EDTBACOn The Fly: Closing Wrap
The Wall Street averages were mixed as a light news flow and light volume did little to catalyze a further advance. Still, with its positive close, the S&P 500 managed to set a new all-time closing high. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., no major economic data was reported. COMPANY NEWS: Bank of America (BAC) and MBIA (MBI) announced a comprehensive settlement to resolve all claims between the two companies. As part of the settlement, Bank of America will pay MBIA $1.6B in cash, receive warrants to purchase a 4.9% equity stake in MBIA and provide a $500M credit facility to the bond insurer. Bank of America also said it would take $1.3B in Q1 charges related to the settlement and that its first quarter earnings would be negatively impacted by 10c per share. Shares of MBIA, which spiked higher near noon after Dow Jones first reported the settlement, closed up $4.46, or 45.37%, to $14.29. Bank of America shares added 64c, or 5.23%, to $12.88... A team of private-equity firms led by Bain Capital and Golden Gate Capital agreed to buy BMC Software (BMC) for $46.25 per share in cash, or $6.9B. BMC shares, which have added more than 14% year-to-date amidst reports of negotiations for the deal, closed unchanged at $45.42. MAJOR MOVERS: Among notable gainers was Arkansas Best (ABFS), up $4.18, or 39.62%, to $14.73 after reaching a tentative labor agreement with the Teamsters union. Also higher was Tesla (TSLA), up $4.95, or 9.07%, to an all-time closing high of $59.50 after Barclays raised its price target on shares to $56 from $38 and the company named Aston Martin's lead vehicle engineer as VP of vehicle engineering. Among the noteworthy losers were LINN Energy (LINE), down $1.97, or 5.21%, to $35.75, and its spin-off LinnCo (LNCO), down $2.59, or 6.2%, to $39.24, following a cautious mention in this weekend's Barron's magazine. Also lower were shares of Tyson Foods (TSN), down 83c, or 3.33%, to $24.10 after its earnings report. INDICES: The Dow was down 5.07, or 0.03%, to 14,968.89; the Nasdaq was up 14.34, or 0.42%, to 3,392.97; and the S&P 500 was up 3.08, or 0.19%, to 1,617.50.

JPMorgan notes that late on Friday, New York State Attorney General, Delaware State Attorney General, and Federal Housing Finance Authority said they will no longer object to Bank of America's (BAC) $8.5B mortgage settlement with private investors that was first agreed upon in 2011.
