Why JPM’s Corporate and Investment Bank Segment Rebounded

Trading revenues might rebound for select bankers (XLF) in 1Q18 mainly due to higher volatility on account of rate hike expectations, trade wars, and higher valuations. Investors have also withdrawn substantially from debt funds, as the Fed suggested we could see four instead of three rate hikes in 2018. JPMorgan Chase’s (JPM) Corporate and Investment Bank (or CIB) segment derives revenues from advisory and transaction fees.
