But they're all quite healthy. Really. That's what they keep telling everyone, at least. Same as it ever was. Same as it ever was. Reuters:

U.S. regulators have deemed that about ten of the 19 U.S. banks being stress tested will need to raise more capital, according to a source familiar with official talks.

The largest U.S. banks have been negotiating with regulators about how much of an additional capital buffer the banks will need to sustain losses that might occur if economic conditions deteriorate further. The government is scheduled to release the official results on Thursday.
