JPMorgan Chase chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon has warned investors that recently announced tariffs will likely increase inflation and cause many to consider a greater recession probability. In light of these "significant and somewhat unprecedented forces," Dimon indicated the company will remain cautious going forward.
“There are many uncertainties surrounding the new tariff policy: the potential retaliatory actions, including on services, by other countries, the effect on confidence, the impact on investments and capital flows, the effect on corporate profits and the possible effect on the U.S. dollar,” Dimon said in a letter to shareholders. “The quicker this issue is resolved, the better because some of the negative effects increase cumulatively over time and would be hard to reverse.”
