July 15 (Reuters) - Wells Fargo's ( WFC ) profit rose in
the second quarter as it set aside less money to shield for
potential bad loans.
The fourth-largest U.S. lender's net income was $5.49
billion, or $1.60 a share, in the three months ended June 30, it
said on Tuesday. That compares with $4.91 billion, or $1.33 a
share, a year earlier.
