With JP Morgan Chase set to release JP Morgan Q3 earnings report in two days, investors are buzzing about what might come next. The big question: Will this earnings report push JP Morgan’s stock back up to its recent highs or expose weaknesses that could cause it to drop?
Looking at the current price chart, JP Morgan’s stock (NYSE: JPM) is positioned at $208.81, having faced a slight dip of around 1%. The chart reveals some key support and resistance zones that could play a significant role post-earnings.
Resistance at $225: This upper level has acted as a ceiling for the stock on multiple occasions. If the earnings report impresses, it could push the stock towards this level, but a break above $225 would indicate strong bullish momentum and could lead to further gains.
Support at $204 and $191: The stock has support around $204.45, a level it recently tested. If the earnings disappoint, we could see the stock gravitate toward this support or, in a more bearish scenario, drop further to the next key support around $191.42. These levels have historically acted as stabilizing zones during price declines.
Investors are keenly focused on JP Morgan’s net interest income following the Fed’s recent rate cuts. Lower interest rates typically impact banks’ earnings from loans, but they also relieve some stress on borrowers, which could, in turn, support loan growth and trading activity. Furthermore, there is anticipation about JP Morgan’s outlook for 2025, especially given the ongoing rate adjustments and macroeconomic pressures.
This earnings report could be a pivotal moment for JP Morgan’s stock. With strong results, a push above $225 is possible, especially if the bank provides an optimistic outlook for the year ahead. Disappointing results could see the stock test lower supports at $204 and $191.
For those watching closely, JP Morgan’s earnings report will likely set the tone for the banking sector as we head into the year’s final quarter.
