A stress test is a regulator's exercise in which banks are run through a severe hypothetical recession to see whether their capital survives. The result decides how much cash they must hold — and therefore how much they can hand back to shareholders.

| 22% | IMF warns that the AI boom's debt could turn a correction into a crisis 压力测试 —— 监管机构把银行放进一个假想的 · 第 6 张术语卡 | The IMF ran banks through a combined scenario of stagflation, an energy shock and an AI market correction. Under it, banks holding 22% of global banking assets would see core capital ratios drop below 7%, versus 18% in the 2025 test. 读压力测试要抓三件事：① 情景有多狠（本轮把滞胀、能源冲击与 AI 回调叠在一起，属于多重冲击叠加）；② 通过的标准是什么（这里看核心一级资本充足率 7% 这条线）；③ 结果怎么比较（把「跌破线的银行资产占比」从 18% 升到 22%，比绝对数字更有信息量，因为它衡量的是体系脆弱性的变化）。对普通人来说，压力测试最实用的用途是判断「如果出事，第一波会在哪里」—— 这次答案是既能直接持有 AI 资产、又通过私募信贷间接暴露的银行。 |
| — | Wall Street banks face an earnings test after a $270 billion slide 压力测试 —— 监管机构把银行放进一个假想的 · 第 9 张术语卡 | The Federal Reserve's 2026 test kept all 32 banks above their minimum CET1 requirements with no change to large-bank capital requirements, which is what keeps buybacks on the table. 关键指标是 CET1（核心一级资本充足率）—— 用最优质的资本除以风险加权资产。压力测试通过，意味着回购和分红不会被否掉，这在股价下跌时尤其重要：回购本身会减少流通股，抬高每股收益。所以在利率高企、账面资产缩水的年份，一份干净的压测结果，等于给银行的资本回报能力盖了章。 |
