The retail sector looks positive at this level.
We anticipate the USD/ZAR to hold within the 8.05 - 8.40 level.

"The portfolio is sitting on nearly $8 Billion in unrealized gains."
The Question is: Why would JPM risk the political fallout and with Dodd Frank legislation final draft still being negotiated by announcing a loss whilst the portfolio is showing unrealized gain of $8 Billion. I think there's something deeper than a $2 billion loss. And several questions are raised? Could JPM with the approval to purchase $12 Billion of it's own share from the US treasury for 2012 be playing its own book? JPM own rate of Stock purchase will tell in Q2. Furthermore, JPM is projected to earn more than $5.00 per share the stock is hugely undervalued.]]> Sat, 12 May 2012 11:55:05 -0400
