Jamie Dimon warned of risks but didn’t say a recession is the “best case.” As of Q1 2025, GDP is growing (+1.6%), unemployment is low (3.9%), and there’s no NBER-declared recession—his caution reflects uncertainty, not confirmation of an economic collapse.
Jamie Dimon says the *best case* scenario for the US is now a recession.

Cool, cool. From the best economy in the world to a self-inflicted recession in 4 months.

Gotta be some kind of record.

Target's -32% drop aligns with weak comps, margin pressure, and soft guidance. Costco's +5% reflects strong sales and retention in the market. DEI policy changes may have influenced sentiment, but fundamentals and market context were primary drivers. www.reuters.com/business/ret...

Last week a false report about a tariff pause circulated online, causing a surge in the stock market.

Investors who acted on this unverified information faced unexpected volatility when the truth emerged.
