- JPMorgan Finances Critical US Industries to Tune of $230 Billion
JPMorgan Chase said it has deployed about $230 billion over the past year to U.S. industries critical to national security, including defense, energy, manufacturing and supply chains, under its $1.5 trillion Security and Resiliency Initiative launched in October 2025. The total includes $5 billion in equity investments through its Strategic Investment Group. CEO Jamie Dimon said strong economies require investment in infrastructure, manufacturing, energy, defense and innovation. Morgan Stanley and Bank of America have announced their own programs, while the White House estimates more than $11 trillion in investments have been committed over the past 18 months. The article notes this investment boom is pushing interest rates higher as the Treasury and AI hyperscalers compete for capital, though LPL Financial's Jeff Buchbinder does not expect a recession in 2027.
- US bank stock longest losing streak since 2008 clashes with earnings picture
US bank stocks have posted their longest losing streak since the 2008 financial crisis, with the KBW Nasdaq Bank Index falling for six straight weeks and losing 11% since early September, even though the largest lenders JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C) and Wells Fargo (WFC) reported solid results. The four banks set aside $7.6 billion for credit provisions in the quarter, down about 3% from a year earlier, while actual loan losses fell 5% and lending grew nearly 10%. Credit managers are more worried, however: about 60% expect corporate defaults to rise over the next 12 months, and 85% expect wider spreads on North American junk bonds over the next three months, both sharply higher than in the prior survey. Morgan Stanley still calls bank credit conditions “benign” apart from isolated commercial weakness, while investors fear that persistently high interest rates could squeeze borrowers.

- The Investment Case for JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM)
Diamond Hill's Large Cap Strategy returned 3.18% net of fees in Q3 2026, outperforming the 2.61% return of the Russell 1000 Value Index, and added JPMorgan Chase as a new holding. The firm said JPMorgan's scale should support continued technology investment that improves efficiency, helping contain expense growth and drive operating leverage. It expects below-average returns across the market due to high equity valuations, though attractive bottom-up opportunities remain. As of October 16, 2026, JPM closed at $339.72, with a $903.04 billion market cap, up 5.43% year-to-date and trading in a 52-week range of $279.10 to $366.50. Hedge fund portfolios holding JPM fell to 113 at the end of Q2 from 131 the previous quarter.
- Jamie Dimon slammed crypto. JPMorgan quietly built JPM Coin.
JPMorgan is expanding its dollar deposit token, JPM Coin, to Ethereum to reach a wider range of institutional clients. Based on reporting of JPMorgan’s statement, the token supports peer-to-peer transfers across EVM networks, including Base and Ethereum. JPM Coin was first used on JPMorgan’s private blockchain to test settling tokenized deposits, and it moved to Base, an Ethereum layer, last year. The host notes that Jamie Dimon, an outspoken crypto critic who has softened somewhat on stablecoins and tokenization, is now putting the bank’s product on public networks. The host sees this as a bullish trend and a possible sign of a hybrid model combining private and public networks.

- Bitcoin ETFs just saw their biggest day in a month thanks entirely to BlackRock
U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs took in $526.6 million on Monday, the largest daily net inflow in nearly a month, driven entirely by BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which pulled in $665.2 million, its biggest daily inflow since Oct. 7 last year, according to SoSoValue data. Fidelity's FBTC lost $83.6 million and Grayscale's GBTC shed $54.9 million, while the remaining funds recorded no net flows. The inflow more than erased last week's $228.5 million of withdrawals, but funds remain about $90.5 million in net outflows for October, according to CoinDesk calculations. Ether funds moved the opposite way, losing $103.3 million in their fourth consecutive session of outflows, with BlackRock's ETHA accounting for $95.4 million of that.
- A Big4 bank cut deposit rates in the morning, then raised them again in the afternoon
VietinBank cut its deposit rates for terms of 6 months and longer on the morning of Oct. 20, then restored them to pre-adjustment levels by the afternoon. Its afternoon rate board showed 3.5% per year for 6 to under 12 months, 5.9% for 12 to under 24 months and 6% for 24 months and longer, versus 3%, 5.4% and 5.5% in the morning. Rates for terms under 6 months stayed unchanged, including 2.1% for 1 to under 3 months and 2.4% for 3 to under 6 months. The move came as banks followed the State Bank of Vietnam's guidance to cut deposit rates by at least 0.5 percentage points for terms of 6 months and longer, and Vietcombank and Agribank were among those reducing rates.
- IVV vs. SPY: Which S&P 500 ETF Is the Better Buy for Long-Term Investors?
The article compares two ETFs that track the S&P 500, iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) and State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), which have nearly identical holdings. The main difference is the expense ratio: IVV charges 0.03% a year, one-third of SPY's 0.09%, and its distribution yield is about 1.1% versus 1% for SPY. SPY's high liquidity remains valuable for active traders. The article concludes that IVV is the better choice for long-term investors, since lower costs can compound over time.
- Warren Buffett Is Issuing a Stark Warning About the Stock Market. Here's What History Says Comes Next.
Warren Buffett has warned that investors are taking on too much risk, likening the market to 'a church with a casino attached' and saying people have never been in a more gambling mood. The article points to the S&P 500 Shiller CAPE Ratio, which has stayed above 40 since May of this year; historically, the only other time it held above that level for months was during the dot-com bubble, when it peaked around 44 before the bear market began in March 2000. The article notes that 40 is not an automatic trigger for a downturn, and no metric can predict timing. It suggests investors focus on quality stocks with solid fundamentals and be ready to hold them for at least a few years.
- Early Uber Investor Jason Calacanis Predicts Waymo Could Buy Lucid Or Rivian — Calls Its Chinese-Car Optics ‘Really Bad’
Early Uber investor Jason Calacanis predicts Waymo will buy Lucid Group (LCID) or Rivian Automotive (RIVN), arguing that its reliance on Chinese-made Zeekr vehicles creates cost and reputational problems. He says the arrangement is technically not illegal today, but Waymo would need to pay a tariff of over 100%, and it has drawn national-security concerns on Capitol Hill. According to Semafor, Waymo aims to grow its fleet from about 4,000 vehicles to 8,000 by the end of 2026 and 20,000 by the end of 2027, after closing a $5 billion term loan and a $16 billion equity raise this year. Uber has committed to buying at least 35,000 Lucid vehicles, while its Rivian deal starts with 10,000 autonomous R2 SUVs, with rides expected to begin in 2028. Calacanis, who recently bought small stakes in Lucid, Rivian, WeRide (WRD) and Pony.ai (PONY), expects consolidation in the autonomous-driving sector within 24 months.
