-53.11%

While there are absolutely worse CEOs than Dimon in bank-land, how do you successfully manage a massive derivative portfolio in times with such volatility? Very small errors result in very big losses. Can JPM really afford to pay back the TARP? Questionable. Would be much more convinced if the "transparent" government and big banks would let us all "in" on why it's so hard to pay back the TARP. Other banks have done it. So what's holding them back? There might be a time to be more bullish on non-TARP banks, but right now if the bank has TARP it's in questionable territory. As a ...

Great Results. 7c a share profit when all had lost hope. Now the financial third world ( Our fourth estate) is realising the gem that their buy strategy was. Though WaMu will still cost them som emore pain but as long as they got good capital base from the purchase, they are the one singing all the way to their vault. Dimon's people strategy seems to work too. He has a lot of upbeat staff working on the same strategy they always had and they seem to know where the markets and the global depression is headed. Their research on India china and even Oil is doing better than many others from th...

Investors feeling secure with Fortinet
Filed under: JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Morgan Stanley (MS), Initial public offerings As companies get more reliant on technologies, the risks increase substantially because of the explosion of security threats.
