JPMorgan Chase: Billions in Trading Losses

JPMorgan Chase not hedging well at all


One of the world's largest banks, JP Morgan, has reported hedging strategy losses of well over $2 billion U.S.



JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon, and Obama Administration insider, said: "This puts egg on our face." 

How did this happen? Why did this happen? One analyst noted that JP Morgan tried to hedge its over-hedge positions. Leverage does as leverage does.
