The world is facing increasing risks due to escalating conflicts in the Middle East and Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine.

Dimon stated on Friday in the bank's third-quarter earnings release that we have been closely monitoring the geopolitical situation for some time and recent events indicate that conditions are becoming increasingly dangerous.

He stated that the consequences of these situations could have significant effects on both short-term economic outcomes and the course of history, as there is significant human suffering.

Despite indications that the Federal Reserve has managed a gentle economic slowdown, Dimon expressed caution about the future of the economy.

"Despite the slowing of inflation and the resilience of the U.S. economy, several critical issues persist, such as large fiscal deficits, infrastructure needs, and trade restructuring, as Dimon stated. We must remain prepared for any environment, given the uncertainty and potential events that may arise."
