πππSometimes the market doesn't fall because the numbers are bad. It falls because of bad news. That is exactly what happened with
$JPMorgan Chase(JPM)$ Q4 25 earnings.
JPMorgan actually delivered strong results : USD 13 billion in net income. USD 46.8 billion in revenue, up YoY. Trading revenue beats analysts expectations.
JPMorgan is not a weak bank. This is US's largest bank with rock solid balance sheet.
Why did JPMorgan fall?
Even though results beat expectations profit declined from last year.
JPMorgan absorbed a charge tied to Apple Card loan portfolio takeover.
Credit costs rose to USD 4.7 billion including reserve builds.Markets see this as a warning as consumers are starting to strain.
I believe the single most important factor is the credit card fee cap. The market is pricing a future where banks earn less from swipe fees.
As Warren Buffett likes to say When there is Fear in the market it is time to be greedy.
