“Right now it’s kind of sunny, things are doing fine. Everyone thinks the Fed can handle this,” Dimon said at the conference in a statement reported by CNN. “That hurricane is right out there down the road coming our way.”
“We just don’t know if it’s a minor one or a Superstorm Sandy…You better brace yourself,” Dimon warned. “JP Morgan is bracing ourselves and we’re going to be very conservative with our balance sheet.”
