Thanks, Bill, and good morning, everyone. Our balance sheet is on Slide 4 and is presented on an average basis. For the length quarter, loans of $319,000,000,000 were stable, investment securities increased by $2,000,000,000 and our cash balances at the Federal Reserve were $38,000,000,000 a decrease of $7,000,000,000 or 16%. Deposit balances grew $3,000,000,000 and averaged $425,000,000,000 Forward funds decreased $9,000,000,000 or 12 percent primarily due to the maturity of FHLB advances. At quarter end, AOCI was negative $6,600,000,000 compared to negative $5,100,000,000 as of September 30, reflecting the impact of higher rates.
