House verdict
Grower crossing into income. A 2.0% yield with a 27.7% payout is the combination the House hunts for: real income now, and the coverage to keep raising it. Bank earnings are cyclical, so the low payout is the safety feature, not a missed opportunity.
✓Payout-coverage check:27.7% payout — the raise to $1.65/quarter barely dents coverage.
✓Yield check:2.0% with growth attached passes the income test for a single stock.
JPM in the House
Room: Credit / BDC. Not one of the House's current holdings — in Order a New House it takes a seat in this room and carries the room's 9% target. Target 9% — business-lending income. Higher yield for carrying the credit risk banks used to keep.
Every card is graded the same way and re-checked against the company's own filings. The Weekly House Score reports whatever crosses a House threshold; the House Tracker is the spreadsheet the framework itself runs on.
