The bank added US$2.1 billion to the amount set aside for losses in home loans written by Washington Mutual, the failed bank it bought in 2008. Most of it was related to souring home equity loans. For the full year, JPMorgan had net income of US$17.37 billion, or US$3.96 a share, up 48 per cent from US$11.73 billion, or US$2.26 a share. (AP)
