Don't let the smooth taste fool you.

The Bear deal is not as wonderful as it seems. Yes, they get a $1B building and some prime brokerage business for free.

But Bear Stern was a huge underwriter of credit default swaps (CDS). JP Morgan now takes o...

Like all the Wall Street majors out there, they've been pussyfooting around their mortgage-based writedowns. (Nothing to do with booking their bonuses before getting to the real work, of course.) There are other shoes to drop as the slop these jokers...

Though towards the high end of its 52 week range, Chase is becoming a bigger and bigger fish in a shrinking pool. Card Services keep expanding (to the detriment of many) and the other segments of the business aren't just sittin' around chillin'.

JPM has historically underinvested in global expansion vis-a-vis Citi and now that most of the integration work from the varied acquisitions is largely complete (and that dolt Bill Harrison is gone) and they have a real go-getter CEO they will finall...

JPM's gross profit for '06 was approx triple that of '04 yet the stock price hasn't budged in years. The market is rational over the long-haul but emotional over the short-term. Now's the time to get in.

This is a short term underperform pick, simply because more bad news with financials will tug it down.

The problem with most banks is that they are run by bankers, not well-rounded businesspeople. Jamie Dimon is the latter, and he has the track record to prove it. Don't bet against him. Given the complexity and size of JPM, it would be silly to think ...

JPM's new management team continues to rightsize the business and realize the billions in unrealized expense synergies promised to sell the last several mergers. It is unlikely that Jamie Dimon will be "permitted" to dilute investors, yet again, to ...

I worked as a cs rep for Chase's credit card division. Started about 6 years ago when it was Bank One. I personally experienced James Dimon whip this company into shape which meant my comrades and I were made to work a lot harder. For a long time our...
