11:11 ET - Private student loan lenders could pick up a $2.5 billion tailwind from the mega tax-and-spending bill signed by President Trump last week, J.P. Morgan analysts say in a research note. The law restricts or eliminates sources of federal loans for graduate students, privatizing as much as $14 billion in student loans. That represents huge potential growth from the just $1.2 billion that private issuers lent to graduate students in 2024, the analysts said. Lenders like SoFi, Sallie Mae and Navient could see huge gains in interest and fees revenue as a result. (nicholas.miller@wsj.com)
