JPMorgan Chase Raises Dividend 7.1% And Stock Has Room To Run
"JPMorgan's dividend history illustrates how aggressively the bank has grown its payout over time. The quarterly dividend stood at just $0.25 per share in 2012, reaching $1.00 by 2022, and now $1.50, reflecting a bank actively expanding its dividend as earnings scale."
"In Q1 2026, JPMorgan reported net income of $16.49 billion, up 13% year over year, on revenue of $49.84 billion. CEO Jamie Dimon stated, 'The Firm delivered strong results in the first quarter, reporting net income of $16.5 billion.'"
"Markets revenue hit a record $11.60 billion, up 20% year over year, while advisory fees surged 82% year over year to $1.27 billion. That kind of broad-based growth across trading, investment banking, and consumer banking gives the dividend raise a firm foundation."
