The answer is a simple one. Jamie Dimon is simply Way Too Big to Fail.
Jamie Dimon is currently chairman and CEO of JP Morgan.
Interestingly, Jamie is also on the board of the New York Federal Reserve Bank. A banking regulator and important part of U.S. monetary policy.
Jamie Dimon was a classmate of (now GE chairman and fellow crony capitalist) Jeffrey Immelt while studying for their MBA's at the Harvard Business School. Jeffrey Keith "Jeff" Skilling, former President of Enron and also a Harvard MBA, was not a classmate of Jamie Dimon while at Harvard. Jeff Skilling is currently serving a 24-year, four-month prison sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution in Englewood, CO.
This month, JP Morgan received worldwide global attention for its $2 billion financial market trading loss disclosure. If you have a problem with this trading loss as a shareholder, JP Morgan customer, or a U.S. taxpayer, please remember: Jamie Dimon is Way Too Big to Fail.
On December 31, 2005 Jamie Dimon was named CEO of JP Morgan Chase (NYSE: JPM). One year later, he was named chairman.
When Jamie Dimon began as CEO JP Morgan stock was selling for $39.69 per share. JPM closed trading on May 15, 2012 at $36.24. The 7-year total-Jamie-Dimon-JPM-return is down over $3 per share. When Jamie Dimon began as CEO, JP Morgan was providing shareholders with a 34 cent per share quarterly dividend. That dividend was cut to 5 cents per share in 2009 and is now up to 30 cents per share quarterly.
If you have a problem with this stock performance as a JPM shareholder, again, please do remember: Jamie Dimon is Way Too Big to Fail.
