re. JPM: the notional value of its outstanding derivatives positions is NINE times its equity. if anyone is prepped to go under in a systemic shock, it's JPM.

i really wonder why the market hasn't priced this giant risk in yet....i mean JPM is not in the too big to fail category.

The volume is very low today. The panic down day has not coming yet. Can't wait to see the drama.

Yes, everything I read indicates that JPM has the most exposure of any of the big banks. I think the pertinent post was at contraryinvestor.com.

Also, the chart on JPM looks like it topped today!
