Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
As of the close on August fourth, twenty twenty five,
the share praise of JP Morgan Chase was two hundred
ninety four United States dollars and forty one cents, with
a trading volume of just under six million, six hundred
fifty thousand shares. This volume was notably below the recent average,
reflecting a sharp forty three percent drop from the previous

(00:20):
session and ranking only thirtieth among high volume equities for
to day. The subdued trading interest came despite a one
point six nine percent price rally, as institutional engagement remained
mixed during a period when large cap financial stocks generally
saw amplified price wings. Recent headlines reveal a company at
the center of major industry negotiations. Most prominent is JP

(00:43):
Morgan Chase's advanced talks to take over the high profile
Apple credit hard program from Goldman Sachs. This potential deal
not only signals an expansion of the bank's reach and
consumer finance, but also underlines its continuing importance as the
world's twelfth largest company by mark capitalization, which now stands
above eight hundred seven billion United States dollars. Second quarter

(01:07):
results in twenty twenty five painted a nuanced financial picture.
The company reported a twelve percent year over year revenue
decline to forty two billion United States dollars, largely due
to one time games from the prior year, but both
core consumer and community banking and commercial and investment bank
segments managed robust growth in lending and trading, up from

(01:30):
six to nine percent. Management highlighted a solid return on
equity of twenty one percent and a common equity Tier
one capital ratio of over fifteen percent, suggesting resilience and
room for strong capital returns if regulatory headwinds soften. Analyst
sentiment remains largely favorable. Of fifteen major analysts, the consensus

(01:54):
is a BUYE with a twelve month price target of
approximately three hundred three United STIs States dollars, suggesting only
modest upside from current levels. The dividend yield is around
two percent, and while management warned of possible cyclical stresses
and elevated acid valuations, the firm's scale, profitability, and role

(02:19):
in the financial system continue to underpin its defensive reputation. Overall.
J P. Morgan Chase enters the late summer of twenty
twenty five not only as a systemically vital player, but
one navigating both microeconomic uncertainty and transformative industry opportunities.
