NEW YORK— The Associated Press
Wells Fargo & Co. (WFC-N28.700.291.02%) says its second-quarter profit rose 30 per cent, boosted by a release of reserves set aside to cover souring loans as its customers continued to improve their loan and credit card payments.

Revenue edged down 5 per cent to $20.39-billion, just short of analyst estimates for $20.43-billion. Revenue in its largest segment, community banking, fell.
