Upper 90 : I think Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan lost all his credibility. He backtracked today stating he should not have used the word "hurricane" when he described the upcoming economy last summer. I doubt we hit more than 5% interest rates. As such, the JPMorgan CEO nor their analysts know what they are talking about and these 1%ers can't be relied nor trusted. The only analyst so far who I have found to be accurate is Mike Wilson of Morgan Stanley. The market moves when he speaks; therefore, listen to him.
