JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon: Future Interest Rates Could Be Significantly Higher than Current Levels
May 21 – As bond yields surge to multi-year highs, JPMorgan Chase Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon has issued a pointed warning to bond investors. In a TV interview, Dimon noted interest rates could jump sharply from current levels, saying, “They could be much higher than they are today. We may have already shifted from an excess of savings to a shortage of savings.”
His remarks come as long-term bonds face downward pressure, fueled by concerns that climbing oil prices could push central banks to raise interest rates. Compounding that stress are worries over government spending in Japan, the U.K., and the U.S., plus the artificial intelligence boom driving growth in the world’s largest economy – factors that have led investors to demand higher compensation to hold longer-dated debt.
“We can’t predict when the global market will panic over this, or when inflation will make investors reluctant to hold long-term bonds,” Dimon added. “But that day is coming.”

Glassnode: Bitcoin Retakes Realized Cap But Fails to Hold, On-Chain Metrics Indicate Consolidation or Continued for Months

Historical market cycles suggest that weeks to months of consolidation will likely be needed before a confirmed transition to a sustainable bull market. The 30-day moving average of Bitcoin’s Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) has climbed from 0.4 in February to 1.8 during the recent rebound — a sign current demand isn’t enough to soak up the wave of profit-taking. For a meaningful bounce in buyer strength, this ratio will need to consistently stay above 2.
The 30-day cost basis of $78,200 has flipped from a support zone to resistance, while the accumulation cluster’s cost basis (formed between February and April at $71,400) is now the most immediate level holding up Bitcoin during its current pullback.
