Jamie Dimon says he still sees a recession on the horizon

Key Points

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said Wednesday he still believes that the odds of a “soft landing” for the economy are around 35% to 40%, making recession the most likely scenario in his mind.
When asked by CNBC’s Leslie Picker if he had changed his view from earlier this year that markets were too optimistic on recession risks, Dimon said the odds were “about the same” as his earlier call.
Dimon added he was “a little bit of a skeptic” that the Federal Reserve can bring inflation down to its 2% target because of future spending on the green economy and military.
