JPMorgan warns 86 million customers they might have to start paying for their bank accounts
Chase Bank customers could see some additional charges in the not too distant future.
The Wall Street Journal reports the country’s biggest retail bank is warning that it might begin charging customers for their accounts. That would impact some 86 million customers.
The potential charges, says Marianne Lake, CEO of Consumer & Community Banking at JPMorgan, are a result of new regulatory rules that cap overdraft and late fees. Kae says Chase will be passing along those increased expenses to customers, which would put an end to now-free services such as checking accounts and wealth-management tools. And she says she expects other banks will follow suit.
The threat of charging for once-free services isn’t a new one. Over a decade ago, many banks said they would add a service fee onto debit cards because of regulatory changes. Few actually did, though, as the feared a consumer revolt.
That could happen again, especially as consumers struggle with inflation and higher costs of living, but it’s not certain.
The new rules would cap credit card late payments at $8 and overdraft charges at $3. New capital rules would also require them to hod more reserves against mortgages and credit card loans, which could impact consumer loan potentials, banks warn.
“It is not practical for many of the services to be free if we won’t be able to draw from those profit pools,” Lake said.
Of course, whether those rules will go into effect could depend on the results of the November election. Donald Trump could strike them down or dilute them. And banks have brought lawsuits to prevent them from going into effect. Some of those cases are currently pending before judges.
This is some commonsense fire right here. Nice find.Quiet Compounding

One of America's biggest banks warns about checking account charges
One of America's biggest banks has issued a stark warning about looming charges on checking accounts.
Credit card late fees to be capped at $8 - but not at every bank
Banks will only be able to charge customers a maximum of $8 each time they miss a monthly credit card payment under a new rule announced on Tuesday.
Man, I was just getting ready to post this clip.
I agree INTC does has some positive revenue avenues coming up in a few years, but that debt is serious. Building a position over the next 5 years is too high of a gamble for me.

Thanks for sharing.
It's definitely one of the best feelings. As the saying goes - "letting the money work for you" (just investing it and letting it quietly compound).
Knowing that it's the long game ... saving for your future.

*Disclosure - don't own INTC directly. Do own AMD, NVDA*
INTC has to pull through on their manufacturing processes (probably said this before). It's the catalyst that can really drive their SP. The big question is WHEN and can they take business from TSM. Profitability on the foundry business is a bit concerning, especially when they're being attacked in all segments...NVDA, AMD, ARM in client, data center, graphics. Plus, Pat G is a salesman. Hard to trust what he says.
Intel CEO: Foundry Business Won't be Profitable Until 2030
Pat Gelsinger has finally pulled the covers back a bit on its fledgling foundry business.
AMD and Lisa Su believes that AI has a $400B TAM by 2027. They need a piece of that. Gaming, client, graphics...cyclical. and right now, it's not a revenue generator. Does that change with the release of new chips in 2H 2024?
would take a quarter or two to be realized.I'm going to ride AMD a bit longer. And keep DCA'ing those semi ETFs. I don't get the SP of $ARM but I'm too chicken to buy puts. NVDA was going to buy ARM for $40B... Now ARM is $190B market cap.

Do you recommend buying the stock or a semiconductor Etf like SMH?*Disclosure - don't own INTC directly. Do own AMD, NVDA*

Reading his book helped me block out all the noise & focus on my strategy.
Depends on your risk appetite. Semi ETFs give that broad exposure to the sector and are a good starting point. From there, you could take a look at the ETF's top holdings and follow those individual stock.
If going the individual stock route, you'll want a company that has diversified revenue streams and products. Simply because Tech is always changing (AI is the rage one day and something else the next).

I was mostly talking about buying AMD stock or buying an Etf that’s top heavy with AMD
Yup, i don't want financial advice from ANYONE who did not ask for. I don't even want to have any conversations about finances period.
AMD is volatile as hell. I like the company and where they're going, but the SP fluctuations aren't for the weak. Feels like it can go +/- 5% any given day.
In the short term, AMD's Q2 outlook is supposed to be roughly the same as their Q1. Not impressive to say the least. 2H 2024 is where the AI revenue is supposed to kick in; however, in Q1 AMD only forecasted $4B in AI for the year. Having said that, AMD likes to be conservative in their forecasted numbers, but there's no telling if they'll over deliver.
ETFs have been good YTD (SMH - heavy NVDA, SOXX - more balanced). AMD YTD lags a bit behind the sector.
