Shares of
JPMorgan
have outperformed the Zacks Banks – Major Regional industry over the past six months (+13.9% vs. +4.2%). In fact, JP Morgan’s third-quarter 2022 results show positive effects of higher rates and solid loan demand as well as robust trading performance, while a worsening macroeconomic outlook was a headwind.
The Zacks analyst believes that opening new branches, strategic buyouts/investments and global expansion and digitization efforts will keep driving financials. Higher rates and a steady rise in loan demand will keep aiding net interest income (NII). Yet, the volatile nature of the capital markets business and higher mortgage rates are likely to make fee income growth tough. Steadily rising expenses remain a key issue.

The tech giant reported mixed third-quarter 2022 results, wherein the bottom line beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate while the top line missed. Both revenues and earnings declined year over year, owing to a challenging macroeconomic environment and softening demand trends.

An imposition of fresh lockdown restrictions in some markets, forex woes and high debt burden are other headwinds. It is witnessing intensifying competition in the server, networking and storage markets, while inflated raw material costs and signs of market saturation are worrisome.
The Sino-US trade war is also adversely impacting its growth prospects. However, its Mobileye growth should be driven by design wins amid recovering automotive industry. Recovery in the enterprise business of the data center segment is a positive.
