<li>Earnings per share of $4.37 vs $4.00 estimated </li>
<li>Revenue of $42.4 billion vs $38.96 billion estimated </li>
<li>Net income up 67% to $14.5 billion </li>
<li>Revenue up 34% on higher rates and loan growth </li>
<li>Average loans up 13% </li>
<li>Deposits down 6% </li>
</ul><p>Banks are often seen as a barometer of US consumer health. During the earnings call, JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon <a rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/14/jpmorgan-chase-jpm-earnings-2q-2023.html" target="_blank">stated</a> that the "US economy continues to be resilient" highlighting that consumers are spending but more slowly, that the labor market has softened but job growth remains strong.  </p><p>In the last quarter, JP Morgan's investment banking and trading activity was expected to fall but instead topped analyst estimates. Its retail banking division saw a 37% jump in revenue and a 71% jump in profits.  </p><p>Higher interest rates tend to help banks who can lend at a higher amount than they borrow thereby creating more profit. While there are usually concerns that higher interest rates can cause a slowdown in lending, JP Morgan's average loan growth was up 13%.  </p><p>However, this may not be the bullish sign some expect. If people are taking out more loans and borrowing more money to cover higher bills due to inflation or higher rates, then this could be a negative for the economy and corporate sentiment.  </p><p>In fact, Dimon highlighted this very specific concern during the earnings call. The risk of higher interest rates for a longer period of time, falling consumer bank balances, and continued geopolitical tensions could weigh on the economy and corporate profits.</p><h2 aria-level="2">JP Morgan Stock Forecast – What do the Analysts Say?</h2><p>According to analysts polled by TipRanks for a JP Morgan stock forecast in the past 3 months, there are currently 17 buy, 5 hold and 0 sell ratings on the stock.

<li>Buy the stock on a break above $154.00 to allow for volatility. </li>
<li>Target just below the highest analyst price target of $196.00. </li>
<li>Keep your risk small at a maximum of 5% of your total account.   </li>
<li>Time Line = 1 – 6 months  </li>
<li>If you buy 10 JP Morgan shares:  
<ul>
<li>If target is reached = $420.00 potential profit [($196.00 – $154.00) * 10 shares].</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul><p>Remember that markets go up and down and it is unlikely the share price will move up in a straight line. In fact, it may even go much further down before it rises, especially considering how sensitive banking stocks are to the health of the consumer.</p><p>Be sure to exercise good risk management and always know how much you could potentially lose on a trade and the risks involved, as well as the costs.</p><p>With the Admirals <a href="https://admiralmarkets.com/start-trading/admiral-invest-stocks-and-etfs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Invest.MT5</a> account you can buy and sell US stocks with a commission from $0.02 per share. This means buying 10 shares in JP Morgan stock would result in a commission of $0.20 ($0.02 * 10 shares) for executing a per-side transaction.</p><p>There is a low minimum transaction fee of $1. So, the example trading idea above would result in a commission of just $1 overall! </p><h2 aria-level="2"><span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" data-contrast="none"><span data-ccp-para>How to Buy </span><span data-ccp-para> JP Morgan</span><span data-ccp-para> Stock in 4 Steps </span></span><span data-ccp-props='{"201341983":0,"335559738":40,"335559739":0,"335559740":259}'> </span></h2><p><span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" data-contrast="none"><span><span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" data-contrast="none"><span><span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" data-contrast="none"><span>With Admirals, you can buy shares in companies like JP Morgan</span><span> with a low commission of just $0.02 per share and a low minimum commission of just $1 on US stocks. </span></span></span></span></span></span></p><ol>
