Jamie Dimon Warns: "You Are Going to Panic"

 Jamie Dimon Warns: "You Are Going to Panic" When the Bond Market Cracks

$TSLA, $MSTR, and $MSFT are topping, while $NVDA shows a head and shoulders pattern forming. Buckle up and focus on preserving capital—this is not the time for greed. In a high interest rate environment, managing risk matters more than chasing reward.


At a recent event hosted by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation, Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, issued a stark warning to regulators about the fragility of the U.S. bond market. He emphasized that a significant disruption is imminent and will provoke panic among regulators and investors alike. 

Dimon criticized current banking regulations, particularly proposed changes to banks' supplementary leverage ratios, arguing they don't adequately support the $29 trillion Treasury market. He highlighted that these regulations could hinder banks' ability to absorb shocks during periods of market stress.

This warning comes in the wake of April’s sharp bond selloff, which heightened investor anxiety and forced President Donald Trump to temporarily ease tariff pressures, sparking a stock market rebound. 

Despite rallies in the S&P 500 and JPMorgan shares, bond yields for 10-year and 30-year Treasury notes climbed substantially in May, reflecting ongoing market tension. Some market participants, like Mischler Financial’s Tom di Galoma, believe the bond market showed resilience, citing successful recent Treasury auctions and tools available to the Fed and Treasury. 

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent aims to reduce long-term yields to ease housing and credit markets, indicating regulatory changes could be announced soon. However, persistent worries remain over the GOP’s fiscal policies and Trump's unpredictable tariff strategies, which may increase deficits and discourage foreign buying of U.S. assets. 

Dimon's warning underscores the need for regulatory reforms to bolster the resilience of the bond market and prevent potential crises that could have far-reaching economic consequences.

Is It Time to Buy US Stocks?

 📉 Is It Time to Buy US Stocks? Nobody can perfectly time the market—let’s get that out of the way first. But when your favorite asset is hovering near a major technical support , you need to ask yourself a key question: ❓ If it drops, will you regret buying? Or if it flies, will you regret missing out? If you lean toward the second one, it might be time to pull the trigger . But let’s be clear: Never go all in. Never fully exit. Unless the fundamentals change. 🔍 Why Now? Both $QQQ and $SPY are sitting close to their 200-week SMA —a historically strong support zone. (A 10% drop in SPY would bring it down to its 200-week simple moving average (SMA)) Institutions often accumulate at these levels while retail panic sells. You might be thinking, "This time is different." But I’ve heard that exact phrase during: Market all-time highs Bearish breakdowns Sudden sentiment shifts The truth is: sentiment flips fast. Most investors aren't rational. They...

Is First Solar ($FSLR) a Good Stock to Buy on the Dip?

Is First Solar ( $FSLR ) a Good Stock to Buy on the Dip? The recent election news has impacted the stock market in interesting ways, particularly in the energy sector. Following Trump’s election to the White House, oil-related companies saw an immediate rally, while green energy stocks like solar were heavily sold off. This could be due to expectations that Trump’s administration will prioritize oil drilling, boosting revenue projections for oil companies while sidelining green energy initiatives. But there’s an intriguing counterpoint worth considering: Elon Musk. The Elon Musk Factor Elon Musk, a prominent figure in renewable energy, played an influential role during Trump’s campaign. Given Musk’s relationship with the incoming administration, it’s reasonable to expect he’ll have some sway on green energy policies. Trump is known for his reciprocal style—rewarding loyalty and partnership. This dynamic could potentially benefit Tesla, SolarCity, and First Solar as a whole, turning wha...
