On April 6, Goldman Sachs raised the firm’s price recommendation on JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) to $365 from $352. It reiterated a Buy rating on the shares. The update came as part of a broader note previewing Q1 results for banks. The analyst said valuations across the group look more attractive after a 7% sell-off so far this year. That decline was entirely driven by multiple compressions, bringing valuations closer to historical levels. Goldman added that investors are likely to focus on several key areas. These include the outlook for net interest income, risks to capital markets revenue tied to the recent spike in volatility, and the impact of higher energy prices on credit quality and provisions.

On April 6, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon warned that the war in Iran could trigger oil and commodity price shocks. He said this could keep inflation elevated and push interest rates higher than the market currently expects. The warning came in his annual letter to shareholders. Dimon, 70, who has led JPMorgan for two decades, also said the private credit sector “probably” does not present a systemic risk, even as some investors pull back amid concerns that advances in AI may affect borrowers.

Dimon said the U.S. economy remains resilient. Consumers are still earning and spending, though he noted some recent softening. Businesses, in his view, remain in good shape. He also pointed out that growth has been supported by significant government deficit spending and earlier stimulus. At the same time, he said the need for increased infrastructure investment continues to rise.
