JPMorgan Chase & Co. CEO Jamie Dimon discussed the U.S. economy and artificial intelligence during an NPR interview on April 7, 2026.

Dimon identified geopolitical tensions from wars in Iran and Ukraine as the primary threats to global markets.

He warned that conflict in Iran could trigger oil shocks and supply chain disruptions.

These factors may lead to higher inflation and increased interest rates.

Dimon raised the possibility of U.S. stagflation occurring in 2026.
