JPMorgan Chase & Co. projects record-breaking trading revenue exceeding $10 billion for the first quarter of 2026. The bank expects mid-teens percentage growth for trading revenue during the quarter. Investment banking fees are also projected to grow by a mid-teens percentage. This outlook serves as a stabilizing force following recent volatility in the technology sector.
The institution earmarked approximately $19.8 billion for technology and AI spending in 2026. This expenditure represents a 10% increase from the previous year. CEO Jamie Dimon expressed confidence that the bank will lead the artificial intelligence sector.
Dimon also confirmed he will remain as CEO for several more years. His continued tenure is intended to ensure strategic stability for the bank.
