1219 ET - Credit cards were divisive on JPMorgan's earnings call. On one hand, the bank was upbeat about the prospects for its Apple Card program, Truist analysts say in a research note, pointing to expectations for the program to eventually add more than $20 billion in total card balance. But on the other, JPMorgan says the potential cap on credit-card interest rates would result in dramatic changes to services provided on its cards. Specifically, the analysts say, management noted a cap would result in broad-based and extensive reductions in credit availability, with potential negative knock-on impacts to consumer health and economic growth.
