Jamie Dimon Warns: Tariffs Threaten U.S. Growth and Global Standing
April 12, 2025
Published by: Zorrox Update Team
n his recent annual letter to shareholders, Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, expressed concern over the potential economic consequences of the newly implemented tariffs, warning that they could drive up inflation, increase the prices of both imported and domestic goods, and hinder economic growth. Dimon emphasized the risk that tariffs pose to the U.S.’s long-standing global economic alliances and questioned whether they could trigger a recession. He noted that, although the U.S. economy was already slowing before the tariffs were announced, these measures could worsen existing challenges and potentially push the country into a recession.
Highlighting the connection between economic and military strength, Dimon cautioned that the economic isolation resulting from tariff policies could weaken the country’s position over time. He underscored the importance of maintaining strong ties with allies and international institutions, suggesting that strained relationships could undermine the global influence of the United States.
