JPMorgan's Jamie Dimon says a credit-led recession would be ‘worse than people think'

Jamie Dimon warned that an economic downturn driven by credit weakness would extend beyond private credit and could be worse than many expect. The remarks point to broader stress risks across credit markets and banking liquidity rather than an isolated issue in one segment. The comments are cautionary and may reinforce a risk-off tone, but they do not constitute a concrete policy or earnings event.
