Dimon predicts ‘tough time’ for US bond market
- Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, warned in 2025 about the increased risk of a serious disruption in the US debt markets due to rising debt levels and the economic policies enacted during the Trump administration.

- The outlook implies potential economic turbulence, with financial advisors urging investors to brace for impacts as debt surpasses $34 trillion and market volatility shifts focus.
