JPMorgan Chase & Co. reported second-quarter profit of $14.99 billion, or $5.24 per share, which is down from $18.15 billion, or $6.12 per share, a year ago, but still beat Wall Street estimates of $4.47 per share adjusted earnings. 

The company’s revenue fell 10.5% to $44.91 billion from $50.2 billion last year, yet trading revenue increased 15% to $8.9 billion, driven by advances in fixed income and equity markets, and investment banking fees rose 7% to $2.5 billion due to more IPOs and M&A activity.

JPMorgan had recorded a net income of $14.6 billion in Q1 2025, representing a 9% increase year-over-year.

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon stated that the U.S. economy remained “resilient” during the June quarter despite ongoing significant risks such as inflation and geopolitical tensions. He acknowledged the positive impact of tax reform and potential deregulation as supportive factors but cautioned about uncertainties including tariff policies and economic outlook risks.

JPMorgan’s Q2 results demonstrate strong performance in trading and investment banking amid a challenging broader environment, and Dimon emphasized resilience in the U.S. economy while warning of persistent risks.

JPMorgan had already recorded surging profits in Q4 2024, reporting a net income of $14 billion, which represents a 50% increase year-over-year.
