JPM
JPMorgan Chase & Co.
stock NYSE

RKLB, TSLA, and JPM are my top three

Did Waterhouse ever have the Datek streamer? I’m basically a Waterhouse customer as well.
I did move a handful of accounts (maybe all?) over to BrownCo as I got to be a bit more sophisticated and dabbled in options trading in early 2000s. BrownCo was awesome for that stuff. Then JPM bought them out via acquisition and shut them down.
So then a huge race for everybody to get their customers. Brokerages offering a ton of stuff for these sophisticated investors.
I think I went to TDAmeritrade (might have checked out E*trade for a bit) and was with them until they moved to Schwab.
I run some cash accounts through Fido and have been very happy with them. I’m very tempted to move everything over there.

should have bought the money printer instead (JPM,WFC)

I suspect it was either BofA or Wells Fargo that was bailed out by the Fed and had the forced liquidation that caused the market Kaos we saw Monday….but, special FAWQ U to JPM the master manipulator of the PM markets….

JPM is no longer short. They are out.

Tomo JPM rug pulls Cohen-style by flooding market with its stockpile

Nearly everything I look at looks bearish to me. In the last few days or longer. I started shorting a few, they're working good.
Qs I didn't short

First page of the Finviz screener. I see 3 stocks that don't look too bad JPM, V, JNJ. JNJ is the only one that's going up and to the right, LLY is kind of losing it. But the last few days they have gone down. The Mag7 are cut off at the top and they don't look good. SPY is almost at highs. I don't what the heck is propping it up.

Had a good crop of winners, but the best this year were GOOG, ASML, JNJ, JPM, and CWAN which jumped on news of the take-private right at the end of the year.

Kenny owes you $1 billion from a prior bullet swap coming due. Kenny can't pay up. If you force collection, you'll kill Kenny and now you have to eat the losses on the bullet swap which you don't want to do.
So instead of forcing Kenny to pay up (which ends up being bad for both you and Kenny), you and Kenny agree to "extend and pretend" the bullet swap. Kenny doesn't go under today and you don't have to eat any losses on the bullet swap.
In order to make this happen though, you and Kenny need the DTCC to rubber stamp the extend and pretend bullet swap extension. Luckily, the DTCC swaps validation is just as bad as those from the 2008 mortgage mess; the DTCC only checks the LAST price when the swap is submitted. All you and Kenny need to do is to submit the swap to the DTCC right after trading the underlying (e.g., GME, JPM, and BAC) at a ridiculously low price which will stick for a few minutes because nobody else is trading in the middle of the night.

CRM, HIG, ECL, INTU, DGX, JPM, RPM

Btw JPM has 450mm shares of nvidia

Prevailing theory is bullet swap rolls where the dip during ultra low liquidity allows a LAST price check to pretend as if the stock is still trading at the price the swap was opened at.
This, of course, screams collusion as one of the parties is OK with pretending GME trades at $3 when it’s clearly $20+ (and similar situations with JPM and BAC).

Good job tracking and compiling the info. Still on vacation but the team's chat has been bonkers since early December.
Our group doesn't have much boots on the ground in the US but have multiple GME and bank plays, so we rely on contracted parties to gather info on this, and most of them are still on leave until the NY.
Not knowing which US bank being affected more than usual by silver derivatives is mildly infuriating. I had some thoughts of it being JPM or BOA on stateside or HSBC but JPM's gone long on the metal, and the other two doesn't make as much sense.

Silver to da MOOOOOOON! JPM to hell!!!!!!!!!

Go for it…. The big boys have just entered the game after knocking these metals (gold, silver, copper) down for decades.
Clues: China banned silver exports, JPM stop shorting silver and open new metals trading department in Singapore( EV, AI, Solar are the tech of the future and they depend on ample supply of these metals, need more new mines and new investments.

I rrally appreciate the thorough lacing together of all of these bits that show up but make no sense on their own. I hope this means that the green candle explosion is coming soon. How likely is the Bank of Japan the one in trouble vs. JPM? I see all this craziness and think we're getting somewhere, but it's all happening in the background.

Sure. Financial market will not collapse in 2026. It's not making any indications that it is collapsing and the weird trading patterns we see all around the globe do not indicate panic amongst bankers. JPM and UBS are not overleveraged in silver-shorts. There is no AI bubble. Peace everywhere.

ICYMI: there’s recently been some rumors that a bank failed on Dec 29, 2025 \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1pycf50/rumors_circulating_that_a_bank_heavily_invested/)\] and, unlike my normal laser focus on DD, I shared this rumor on X \[[Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/2005643232794071261)\] noting this rumor hits “Right on time” \[[Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/2005465318450495739)\] with “impeccably perfect timing” \[[Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/2005492542872367278)\]. For those of you who have followed me around and read my work, I track signs of GME debts as they pop up like clockwork based on regulatory deadlines (e.g., [Rule 204 **C35** settlement close out requirement](https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/17/242.204) and [FINRA 4210 **T15** Margin (Call) Requirement](https://www.finra.org/rules-guidance/rulebooks/finra-rules/4210) plus FINRA’s liberally granted [**C14** extension](https://www.finra.org/rules-guidance/key-topics/margin-accounts/extension-reason-codes); **T15+C14** total for a margin call which is generally about the same as C35 except for holidays in that T15 window).
Dec 29, 2025 is exactly after one Rule 204 C35 Settlement after Nov 24, 2025 when I spidey sensed a margin call \[[Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/1993132460851577191)\].  Why?  Just backtrack C35 from Nov 24 to **Oct 17** where we can see:
1. IGME, GMEY, and GMEU lending pools all tapped out with 0 Available to Borrow
2. A huge after hours (AH) XRT creation block \[[Ultimator](https://x.com/TheUltimator5/status/1979285655491391782)\] which we can confirm as a creation because XRT outstanding shares nearly doubles T+3 later \[[Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/1981347938933887129)\] with both GME and GMEU Cost To Borrows jumping T+6 later \[[X](https://x.com/ReesePolitics/status/1982880065907302751), [SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1ohm6nb/gmeu_ctb_2621_negative_rebate_of_2210/), 1\]
3. CAT Errors spike at both T+3 (171M Options ≅ 17.1B shares) and T+6 (236M Options ≅ 23.6B shares) standard ETF settlement deadlines \[1\]
4. Everything GME related went free to borrow on T+3 \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1odpb4j/everything_free_to_borrow_again/)\]
5. Over $1B in crypto liquidated \[[X](https://x.com/WhaleInsider/status/1979094662817190052), [X](https://x.com/coinbureau/status/1979091268014657989)\]
6. SLV hit a new high and its lending pool ran dry too despite a 19% borrow fee \[[X](https://x.com/Nostre_damus/status/1979195874162139560), [X](https://x.com/GoldSilverHQ/status/1979207796777205838)\]
7. CME Group raised margin requirements on gold and **silver** \[[CME (PDF)](https://www.cmegroup.com/content/dam/cmegroup/notices/clearing/2025/10/chadv25-323.pdf), [X](https://x.com/profitsplusid/status/1979017346615250999)\]
Put the pieces of that Oct 17 puzzle together and it looks like there was a ton of GME settlement demand (1) with some attempt to use ETF creation to satisfy some of that (2) \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1izhcg7/shorts_can_run_etf_creationredemption_through/)\].  Corroborating that ETF creation are huge CAT Errors at both T+3 and T+6 (3) and Wall St being *abnormally generous* on T+3 making everything GME related free to borrow (4).  However, those measures still were not enough and some players appear to have gotten liquidated (5) with crypto liquidations happening far faster than in our securities market \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1l4epxo/battles_over_short_sellers_siegfried_line_at_2980/)\].  And a year before, Ultimator and welp007 highlighted that GME appeared to be swapped with Silver with JP Morgan (JPM) holding the long ago failed Bear Stearns silver positions \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1etfv8h/gme_is_swapped_with_silver_and_jp_morgan_is_the/)\], and we see silver and SLV going a bit nuts lately (6 and 7) \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1pycf50/rumors_circulating_that_a_bank_heavily_invested/)\].
Fast forward C35 from Oct 17 to **Nov 21** (i.e., the last day of the C35 settlement requirement) and we see:
* All time high CAT Errors (22.8B Equities + 22.3M Options) \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1pq45f4/waiting_for_blue_boxes_a_preview_of_the_just/)\]
* FINRA exchange taking trades \[[X](https://x.com/naasvzyl/status/1991870264259297410), [X](https://x.com/naasvzyl/status/1991886670879150206), [X](https://x.com/naasvzyl/status/1991874908926992694), [X](https://x.com/naasvzyl/status/1991915439384138196), [X](https://x.com/naasvzyl/status/1991922086915539048), [X](https://x.com/naasvzyl/status/1991920356421202280)\]
* Japan approving a ¥21T ($135B) Stimulus Package \[[Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/japans-cabinet-approves-lavish-135-stimulus-markets-fret-over-fiscal-policy-2025-11-21/), [UW](https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/1991823151710531912)\]
All of the above ensured that 99% of GME calls expired OTM \[[MichaelTLoPiano on X](https://x.com/MichaelTLoPiano/status/1991826116626272724)\] while Schwab began restricting buying to open GME1 \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1pcj4i9/schwab_restricted_buyingtoopen_gme1_calls_on_1121/)\] amidst $1.9B in crypto liquidations larger than the FTX crash and when everyone got sick post-2019 \[[X](https://x.com/cryptorover/status/1991781958603665633)\]. Normally, banks in trouble would run to their friendly Lender of Last Resort (e.g., the Federal Reserve Repo facility) \[2\], *but they didn’t* \[[X](https://x.com/Investingcom/status/1991888502980829521)\]... possibly because [banks were so broke they CANNOT even borrow from the Lender of Last Resort](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1p1c3d7/banks_are_so_broke_they_cannot_even_borrow_from/) as reported by Bloomberg *just two days before*.
As a result, I spidey sensed a margin call \[[Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/1993132460851577191)\] starting on the next business day: Nov 24, 2025 (coincidentally with a very strange [SPY glitch](https://www.reddit.com/r/GME/comments/1p5x7yf/anyone_catch_the_glitch_on_thr_sp_500_went/)); which will end on **New Year’s Eve (Dec 31;** ***tomorrow*****)**. 
A C35 settlement deadline running in parallel to that margin call would have ended on Friday Dec 26 ([$17.25B borrowed from the Fed “Lender of Last Resort”](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/2004561427567350090)) with Dec 29 being the first business day after ([$25.95B borrowed from the Fed “Lender of Last Resort”](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/2005634214172229645)). If we count back one T15C14 margin call from Dec 29, we land on Nov 20 and 21 when we saw insane CAT Errors (9.9B Equities on Nov 20 and 22.8B Equities on Nov 21) \[3\]
**Settlement failures are occurring in parallel with Margin Calls** at the same time as rumors of a bank failure \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1pycf50/rumors_circulating_that_a_bank_heavily_invested/), [Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/2005465027441205402)\].  
[The signs are there. All you have to do is look.](https://preview.redd.it/of9nof0xscag1.png?width=3618&format=png&auto=webp&s=a2fa632df218c4474b54c168d0c3b3d68f00b6b4)
# Shits Hitting Fan: Who’s Getting Shit Splatters?
**UBS?** UBS picked up some heavy Archegos bags from Credit Suisse and recently raised $824M from AT1 “Destined To Fail” Bonds \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1ojctqf/ubs_you_ok_looks_like_you_picked_up_some_heavy/)\]; the same kind of shitty "loss-absorbing" bonds Credit Suisse raised money with shortly before going under.
*Curiously,* ThinkOrSwim has been showing JPM (JP Morgan) and BAC (Bank of America) both doing strange overnight dips recently *similar to how GME dipped to $3* \[[Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/2005674901542470000), [Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/2005667030977134731), [Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/2005659283640525071)\]. 🤨
* JPM has been dipping from \~$320 to \~$20 where it hasn’t traded since the 2008-2009 crisis.
* BAC has been dipping from $55 to \~$18 where it hasn’t traded since 2008-2015.
**JP Morgan?** We figured out JP Morgan cooked their books from the $50 BILLION customer account glitches correlated to swaps and settlement failures \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1pblznk/jpm_cooked_books_june_2021/)\]; which was timely followed by a $100 BILLION customer account glitch \[[Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/1996032455229538601), [Me on X](https://x.com/WhatCanIMT/status/1996019153707336107), 4\]. JPM also appears to have raised money with AT1 bonds ([$2.5B AT1](https://cbonds.com/bonds/1638131/)) in March 2024; shortly after the [BTFP “Not-A-Bailout” Can Kicking Bailout](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/11qhwgz/bank_term_funding_program_the_notabailout_can/) ended \[[Dismal Jellyfish](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/19ew9pz/its_official_federal_reserve_board_announces_the/), [SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1b1ofm2/margin_calls_for_chosen_losers_in_a_rigged_market/)\] which kept bankrupt banks afloat \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/166houo/banks_on_the_brink_of_bankruptcy/)\]
**Bank of America?** Bank of America / Merrill Lynch (BAML) clears 96.7% of Citadel’s derivatives \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1otq08o/bank_of_america_clears_967_of_citadels_derivatives/)\] and serves as clearing and prime broker for over 95% of Citadel Securities net derivative assets \[[SuperStonk](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/115jdph/bank_of_america_is_prime_broker_for_over_95/)\].

As for the margin call which ends on Dec 31 (New Year's Eve), count back C35 to Nov 26 (Thanksgiving, basically) and we see:
* $14B borrowed from the Fed "Lender of Last Resort"
* €12B (\~$14B) lent from the European Central Bank \[[ECB](https://www.ecb.europa.eu/mopo/implement/omo/html/20250103.en.html)\]
