Social Media Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 The JP Morgan boss, Jamie Dimon, has warned the world may be living through “the most dangerous time the world has seen in decades” as Israel prepares to launch an expected ground offensive on Gaza. The escalating conflict could have “far-reaching impacts” on energy prices, food costs, international trade and diplomatic ties, he said as JPMorgan Chase, America’s largest bank, reported earnings for the latest quarter. While the lender posted another robust set of results, Dimon cautioned that interest rates may increase further in the United States, as the savings of consumers dwindle. Dimon said: “The war in Ukraine compounded by last week’s attacks on Israel may have far-reaching impacts on energy and food markets, global trade and geopolitical relationships. This may be the most dangerous time the world has seen in decades. “While we hope for the best, we prepare the firm for a broad range of outcomes so we can consistently deliver for clients no matter the environment.” Earlier this week, Dimon informed staff that JP Morgan employees in the region had been confirmed safe. “This past weekend’s attack on Israel and its people and the resulting war and bloodshed are a terrible tragedy,” he wrote in an internal memo seen by the Guardian. In a later memo, he told employees that the conflict in the Middle East would have “ripple effects that extend far beyond the region”. Global companies have scrambled in recent days to account for their staff and formulate public comments on developments. Antonio Neri, the chief executive of Hewlett Packard Enterprise, described Saturday’s attack by Hamas as “unjustified and inexcusable”.

JonnyF Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Indeed. The rise of antisemitism has shades of the 1930s about it. The fact that large sections of the west are trying to justify it is shocking. Dangerous times for sure. Let’s hope common sense prevails. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted October 14, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2023 The danger is coming from you and your banker friends. You should have been arrested and locked up after 2008. Instead you were protected and made an additional fortune. And continue with your toxic proctices. Banksters may be more dangerous than Israel and Hamas. 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say the rise of antisemitism we're seeing is at least in parts a direct result of the state terrorism perpetrated by the government and military of Israel. As all attempts by the West to rein in the war criminal Netanyahu have failed thus far, things are bound to get worse before they get better. 1 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its pretty certain that the rise in antisemitism is just a natural re-action to Israel's behaviour! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps you got a fixed one, not all others. There too many people who wish to become homeowners. They would rather to go with "variable" rates and save (or be able to buy what is hard to afford with a fixed rate) that was the reason people lost their homes (just like last time).

First of all. there's this. https://www.bankrate.com/mortgages/mortgage-statistics/#term And then there's this Sorry, Fed, Most US Mortgage Rates Were Locked In During Pandemic Lows https://archive.ph/NNTVH And it's true that recently there has been an upsurge in borrowers seeking variable interest rates. But given that these people are interested in borrowing now or recently, it seems unlikely that they are in danger of being evicted from their homes. In fact, their recent signing of variable rate loans is an indication of their belief that high inflation is a temporary phenomenon that high inflation of a year or so ago was a temporary phenomenon. A belief that looks like it was well justified. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
