- He warns of potential negative impacts from geopolitics and deficits.
- Dimon updates on his CEO succession timeline, staying 'a few more years'.

J.P. Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon is cautioning against widespread optimism in the current market, despite significant investments in artificial intelligence and a rising S&P 500. Dimon highlighted that while tailwinds like deregulation and "animal spirits" may drive growth in the near term, long-term macroeconomic headwinds pose substantial risks. He specifically pointed to geopolitical tensions, global deficits, and trade issues as factors that could "crash" the economy, a concern he has raised previously. Dimon stated that the bank prepares for a full range of outcomes, not just good or bad times. He also acknowledged that current high asset prices add to the overall risk. In other news, Dimon updated shareholders on his succession plan, indicating he intends to remain CEO for "a few years" and potentially serve as executive chairman afterward.
