But still the US bank has to federal and resolve state investigation in its mortgage-bond sales, as well as a criminal inquiry. In this regard, it is working to resolve state and federal probes into its mortgage-bond sales, as well as a criminal inquiry. JPMorgan has been in talk about a possible $11 billion contract with authorities, who are investigating that business, according to a source having knowledge of the talks.

    According to the Wednesday report of CFTC, by selling a surprising volume of these trades in a concerted time, the firm irresponsibly overlooked the primary principle on which market members depend, that prices are conventional based on lawful forces of demands and supply. JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) shares surged 2.70% to $53.71 in current session.
