How these figures are worked out

Sources, inflation measures and what is left out
  • Month-end closes from Yahoo Finance, Nasdaq, Jan 1985 to Oct 2026. Oct 2026 is still in progress, so its figure is the latest close rather than a month-end. Our history for JPMorgan starts in Jan 1985, so longer windows are left out.
  • Real figures divide by US CPI (BLS, via FRED) or UK CPI (ONS, joined to the ONS long-run RPI before Jan 1988) and are stated in Oct 2026 money. The M2 lens divides by the US M2 money supply (Federal Reserve, via FRED). Pounds convert at each month's GBP/USD rate.
  • US CPI is published with a lag: Oct 2026 uses the Aug 2026 figure.
  • UK CPI is published with a lag: Oct 2026 uses the Aug 2026 figure.
  • US M2 is published with a lag: Oct 2026 uses the Aug 2026 figure.
  • Price returns only: dividends are not included, so the total return to a holder who reinvested them was higher.
  • A return of 12 months or more also shows its yearly rate. Gaps in a source are left as gaps and never filled in.

What this means today

JPMorgan is up 7.8% over the past year on price alone, against +17.4% for the S&P 500 (through the SPY fund), so it has trailed that comparison by 9.6 percentage points. Dividends are not included, so the total return for holders would be a little higher.

Is JPMorgan overbought, and how volatile is it?

What this means today

At 37.9, JPMorgan's RSI is below the halfway mark but still above 30, so sellers have had a little more of the recent action than buyers without it turning into the kind of slide we'd call oversold. It has not dropped to 30 at any point in the past year.

Volatility against other US shares

Typical daily move

What this means today

JPMorgan's 30-day volatility is 16.7%, which works out at a move of roughly 1.0% on an ordinary day. That makes it the 5th calmest of the 27 US shares we track, below the group median of 23.3%. One very large day, such as an earnings release or a sudden sell-off, can lift a 30-day figure for weeks, so we would read the ranking as this month's picture.

FAQ

JPMorgan: questions people ask

Answers are built from the same live figures shown above, so they change as the price does. Last checked 14 Oct 2026.

Has JPMorgan beaten inflation since 2010?

Yes. From the December 2009 close to October 2026, JPMorgan went up 699% in dollars. US consumer prices rose 55.1% over the same months, which leaves a real gain of 415%, or 10.2% a year after inflation. A UK holder counting in pounds saw up 876%, which comes to up 498% once UK CPI is taken out. These are price returns: dividends are not included, so a holder who reinvested them did better.

How has JPMorgan done against money printing?

The US M2 money supply grew 174% since 2010. M2 counts the cash, current accounts and savings deposits held in the US, so it measures how much new money was created rather than how much shop prices rose. Against it, JPMorgan is up 191%.

What is JPMorgan's real return over 10 years?

Over the 10 years to October 2026, JPMorgan returned 381% in dollars (17.0% a year). After US inflation that is up 247%, 13.2% a year. In pounds after UK inflation it is up 213%.

What is the JPMorgan share price today?

The last price we have for JPMorgan is $332.00, up 0.1% on the day, as of 23:55 BST on 13 Oct 2026. We get US prices from Nasdaq and during trading hours they can be up to 15 minutes behind, so if you are about to trade you'll want the live quote from your broker rather than ours. Over the last month the shares have moved −6.8% and over the last year +7.8%.

Is JPMorgan stock overbought right now?

No, or at least not on the 14-day RSI, which reads 37.9 at the moment. We'd only start calling JPMorgan overbought above 70 and it hasn't been there since 28 Jul 2026. RSI looks back over 14 sessions and asks how much of the movement was up and how much was down, so a reading in the 30s or 40s mostly tells us the past few weeks have been tilted towards sellers without getting extreme. It hasn't dropped to 30 at any point in the past year, so by its own standards this is about as weak as it has looked.

How far is JPMorgan from its 52-week high?

Not far, about 9.1%. The highest close in the past year was $365.18 on 12 Aug 2026 and the lowest was $282.84 on 27 Mar 2026, which puts today's price 60% of the way up that range. We work this out from daily closing prices rather than the intraday highs and lows an exchange reports, so our high can be a little lower than the one you'll see quoted elsewhere.

Is JPMorgan above its 200-day moving average?

It is. JPMorgan's last price of $332.00 is 3.0% above its 200-day average of $322.19, and the 50-day average of $349.38 is above the 200-day as well, which has been true on every day since 24 Jun 2026, as far back as our data goes. We show the 200-day line because it averages about ten months of closing prices, so a single bad week hardly moves it, and when we look at a chart it's the quickest way to see whether a share has been rising or falling over the longer run, even if it can't tell us where the price goes from here.

How volatile is JPMorgan stock?

Over the past 30 days JPMorgan's annualised volatility has been 16.7%. If that number feels abstract, it works out at roughly a 1.0% move on an ordinary day. It is the 5th calmest of the 27 US shares we track and the median for the group is 23.3%, so at the moment it is calmer than most of them. The biggest single-day swings of the past year were +3.9% on 6 Feb 2026 and −4.7% on 9 Dec 2025.
