Recent press releases and 8-K filings for JPM.
- JP Morgan estimates 60% of the overall cost of tariffs will be passed on to consumers, with companies retaining 40%.
- Sector-specific Section 232 tariffs are expected to drive the effective tariff rate to around 22%.
- Upcoming tax cuts in the first half of next year should provide a net tailwind for both consumer spending and corporate profitability, potentially offsetting rising tariff costs.
- Ongoing inflationary pressures from higher goods costs may constrain the Fed to no more than two rate cuts this year, with further cuts likely pushed into the back half of next year.
- S&P 500 support sits at 6,150–6,200, marked by the 50-day moving average and an uptrend line; a break below this zone should trigger aggressive buying, according to Jason Hunter.
- Seasonal trends remain positive through August, but risk typically rises from September to mid-October, warranting close monitoring of market internals and sector rotations.
- High-beta stocks have shown topping patterns, while the “Magnificent 7” tech names still exhibit quality characteristics; a shift into traditional defensives and staples may signal further caution.
- If weakness extends beyond the 6,150 level, the next medium-term support is around 5,800 (approximately a 10% pullback), aligning with the April breakout base.
- JPMorgan forecasts an economic slowdown into H2 2025 with no recession, positioning for a growth recovery in 2026.
- Cites 60% year-over-year increases in AI-related CAPEX for both last year and this year as a key driver for tech growth.
- Recommends utilities (due to AI-driven power demand and dividend yields) and financials (benefiting from deregulation, diversification, and potential regional M&A).
- Views JPMorgan’s 2.4× price-to-book ratio as reasonable given stronger, less cyclical fundamentals versus history.
- JPMorgan Chase’s Japanese securities arm more than doubled its net profit to 45.6 billion yen for the fiscal year ended March 31, its highest in at least seven years.
- The surge was driven by a wave of M&A advisory and underwriting activities, fueled by Japan’s corporate governance reforms encouraging strategic acquisitions and divestitures.
- After the Bank of Japan’s August rate hike triggered the largest market volatility since 1987, dealmaking volumes rebounded, creating lucrative opportunities for investment banks.
- Heightened deal flow has intensified competition for talent among global banks, including Citigroup and Deutsche Bank, in the Japanese market.
- JP Morgan Asset Management’s Kelsey Berro highlights labor demand is moderating: the 3-month ADP average at 37,000 jobs vs NFP at 35,000, while the unemployment rate remains at 4.25% (4.248%).
- Following recent revisions, the market’s probability of a September rate cut surged from below 50% to over 90%.
- The Fed’s dot plot shows a majority of participants expect 1–3 rate cuts this year, signalling an easing bias versus a higher hurdle to hike further.
- Outside the near-term bills vs 10-year segment, the yield curve has re-steepened, and a core high-quality fixed income portfolio yields ~5% versus cash at ~4%, improving diversification.
- Tax bill establishes a stable, internationally competitive tax environment, supporting growth and benefiting lower-income Americans.
- U.S. deficit stands at $2 trillion and is projected to raise total debt from $30 trillion to $50 trillion over 10 years, prompting calls for line-by-line budgeting to restore fiscal discipline.
- Moderated tariffs (~15% on half of imports, averaging 7–8%) may add $300 billion/year in costs, with uncertain pass-through effects on inflation.
- Asset prices are elevated after $10 trillion of borrowing and QE over the past five years, leading to a cautious outlook despite the possibility of a soft landing.
- The Fed kept its target federal funds rate at 4.25%–4.50%, characterizing policy as modestly restrictive to balance risks to inflation and employment.
- GDP growth slowed to 1.2% in the first half of 2025, down from 2.5% in 2024, driven by softer consumer spending, stronger business investment, and continued housing weakness.
- Labor market remains solid with 150,000 average monthly payroll gains, unemployment at 4.1%, and wage growth moderating yet still outpacing inflation.
- Inflation remains above the Fed’s 2% goal: total PCE rose 2.5% and core PCE 2.7% year-over-year through June, with tariffs contributing to higher goods prices.
- The Fed will continue reducing its balance sheet and monitor incoming data before adjusting policy, noting two dissenting votes in favor of an immediate rate cut.
- JPMorgan Chase and Coinbase unveiled a strategic partnership to simplify crypto access, featuring a Direct Bank-to-Wallet Connection via JPMorgan’s secure API, expected live in 2026.

- Beginning Fall 2025, Chase customers will be able to fund their Coinbase accounts using Chase credit cards.
- JPMorgan Chase plans to impose fees on fintech firms accessing its customer data, citing system strain from high data request volumes.
- Of the 1.89 billion data requests in June, only 13% were customer-initiated; the remainder supported product improvement, fraud prevention, or resale.
- Pricing details have been shared with startups, with fee implementation possible as soon as October 2025.
- The move follows the CFPB’s Open Banking Rule, which mandates free data access for authorized parties but faces industry opposition.
- Observers view this as a strategic effort by CEO Jamie Dimon to strengthen JPMorgan’s position and limit emerging fintech competition.
- JPMorgan CIO Bill Eigen warns zero rates are not walking through that door anytime soon, citing ongoing inflation pressures from tariffs, rising construction costs, and sticky wages.
- The Fed faces a no-win scenario, balancing 2–3% GDP growth, record-tight credit spreads, and elevated equity valuations against calls for rate cuts.
- The recent simultaneous rally in equities and bonds, alongside compressed volatility and meme-stock mania, is deemed unhealthy and indicative of market exuberance.
- Longer-term Treasury yields remain above levels seen when Fed funds were higher, reflecting mounting fiscal strain ($37 trillion debt, $2 trillion deficit) and complicating fixed-income strategies.
