JPMorgan's third-quarter EPS of $5.57 fell short of the roughly $5.90 consensus as noninterest expense rose 12% to $27.3 billion. Net interest income climbed 13% to $27.1 billion, and the bank raised its 2026 NII outlook to about $106.2 billion from $105.5 billion. Net buybacks fell to $664 million from $6.2 billion as Jamie Dimon prioritized franchise investment, while the quarterly dividend rose to $1.65. Bloomberg reported that Anthropic chose JPMorgan to lead the U.S. retail portion of its IPO. The author would hold rather than add, citing the pause in buybacks and the Street's $373 target, which implies only about 11% upside from the stock's current level.

- Learn Why The Bull Case For JPMorgan Chase Stock Could Change Following Earnings Miss
JPMorgan Chase reported third-quarter earnings below expectations for the first time since 2023, while raising its 2026 net interest income outlook to about US$106.2 billion. The bank is cutting share buybacks and raising its dividend, directing capital toward technology, AI and franchise investment and accepting higher noninterest expenses rather than maximizing near-term payouts. It is also issuing multiple callable senior unsecured notes maturing between 2031 and 2056, with coupons mostly in the 5.5% to 6.7% range, signaling a focus on balance sheet flexibility and long-dated funding. The article notes that a weaker credit or capital markets environment combined with elevated spending could squeeze margins and returns. Consensus figures project revenue of US$227.1 billion and earnings of US$68.8 billion by 2029, based on an assumed 6.8% annual revenue growth rate, an increase of about US$5.2 billion from current earnings of US$63.6 billion.

JPMorgan Chase reported third-quarter net income of US$15.3 billion, up 6%, and diluted EPS of US$5.57, up 10%. Net interest income rose 13% to US$27.1 billion and managed revenue grew 8% to US$50.9 billion, while noninterest expense increased 12% to US$27.3 billion.

Risk-weighted assets rose about US$52 billion in the quarter on higher lending and market volatility, while the standardized CET1 ratio was 13.9%.
- Bank of America vs. JPMorgan Chase: Diverging Quarterly Revenue Trends for These Financial Giants
Bank of America's quarterly revenue has been largely flat, while JPMorgan Chase has shown consistent growth over the last 8 quarters. Bank of America faces multiple securities fraud class actions and a $1.2 billion penalty from the U.S. Treasury over anti-money laundering rules, and it acquired cybersecurity firm MDSec Consulting Limited and introduced new generative AI capabilities. JPMorgan entered a $20 billion asset management partnership with the Qatar Investment Authority and removed foreign transaction fees from certain credit cards. The article attributes JPMorgan's steadier results to its strong Wall Street businesses, while Bank of America relies more on consumer banking, where it says squeezed American consumers may spend less on financial services.

- Vietcombank Unexpectedly Books VND 5,000 Billion in Provisions for One Bond Batch
Vietcombank booked VND 6,184 billion in provisions in Q3 2026, nearly 8 times the same period last year, with about VND 5,000 billion going to one corporate bond batch linked to an energy-sector client, which it provisioned in full at 100%. Vietcap said the bonds had been moved to non-performing loans from Q4 2025 without full provisioning at that time, and the move fell outside its expectations. Annualised credit costs for the first nine months rose to 0.75% from 0.20%, but excluding the bond batch, asset quality remained sound, with the NPL ratio at 0.71%. Core earnings grew, with nine-month net interest income up 34.5% to VND 57,179 billion and nine-month NIM reaching 3.02%, up 45 basis points. Vietcap said that despite the bond provision, Vietcombank should continue growing credit, NIM and non-interest income, supporting its profit outlook.
- Alkane Resources And 2 Australian Penny Stocks To Own
The article profiles three low-priced Australian shares screened for solid finances and insider alignment, and notes that 17 more penny stocks with similar traits are not covered. Alkane Resources is a gold producer anchored by the Tomingley mine, with reported revenue of A$936 million, and the article flags risks from running three mines in three jurisdictions, antimony price volatility and the large Boda-Kaiser capex project. Emerald Resources, based in Perth, is focused on the producing Okvau gold project in Cambodia, with a market cap of A$4.0 billion, earnings up 196.3% last year and a P/E of 15.5x. Genesis Minerals centres on the Tower Hill project in Leonora, which the article describes as near development, with reported revenue of about A$1.74 billion and a market cap of A$7.6 billion. For each company, the article's core question is how sensitive outcomes are to a single cost, grade or funding decision.
- Stock futures open a monster week after a $5 trillion AI wipeout
US stock futures edged higher Sunday evening ahead of a week packed with Apple earnings, the midterm elections and oil above $100. The biggest AI and chip stocks have lost about $5 trillion in value since Oct. 6, while about 625 other large US stocks added roughly $1.3 trillion. Last week the S&P 500 slipped about 0.6%, yet 9 of its 11 sectors still rose about 1% or more. One view holds the tech selloff could get much worse, while another points to history showing the S&P 500 has risen every time from the end of a midterm October through the following June since 1950. Apple and Palantir report Monday, while WTI crude settled Friday above $104 a barrel as the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively shut.
- Should You Buy PayPal Stock at About 10 Times Its Expected 2026 Earnings?
PayPal trades at about 10.3 times its expected 2026 earnings of $5.55 per share, a valuation the article says suggests most investors are not optimistic about its future. Third-quarter revenue rose only 2% year over year, active accounts were flat at 440 million, and profits have declined this year. CEO Enrique Lores is pursuing a multi-year transformation that includes AI integration, buy-now-pay-later and data security, but competition from Apple, Google, Block's Cash App and Stripe is intense. Full-year profit guidance is $5.60 per share, up from $5.31 in 2025. The main bullish argument is acquisition potential: Stripe and Advent jointly bid for PayPal earlier this year and were rejected, and David Einhorn's Greenlight Capital recently bought shares, renewing talk of another potential suitor.
