Is JP Morgan under- or over-valued?
Valuing JP Morgan stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of JP Morgan's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
JP Morgan's P/E ratio
JP Morgan's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 15x. In other words, JP Morgan shares trade at around 15x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
JP Morgan's PEG ratio
JP Morgan's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 8.1635. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into JP Morgan's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

How to short and sell JP Morgan shares
- Create a CFD or spread betting account.

- Confirm your position and keep tabs on it. You may wish to set limits on your position.
There are currently 19.7 million JP Morgan shares held short by investors – that's known as JP Morgan's "short interest". This figure is 26% down from 26.7 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting JP Morgan shares can be evaluated.
JP Morgan's "short interest ratio" (SIR)
JP Morgan's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of JP Morgan shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of JP Morgan shares traded daily (recently around 12.6 million). JP Morgan's SIR currently stands at 1.57. In other words for every 100,000 JP Morgan shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1570 shares are currently held short.
However JP Morgan's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of JP Morgan shares, or, against the total number of tradable JP Morgan shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case JP Morgan's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 JP Morgan shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0065% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable JP Morgan shares, roughly 7 shares are currently held short).
Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against JP Morgan.

JP Morgan's environmental, social and governance track record
Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like JP Morgan.
When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.
JP Morgan's total ESG risk score
Total ESG risk: 24.51
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and JP Morgan's overall score of 24.51 (as at 01/01/2019) is pretty good – landing it in it in the 29th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like JP Morgan is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
JP Morgan's environmental score
Environmental score: 1.16/100
JP Morgan's environmental score of 1.16 puts it squarely in the 3rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that JP Morgan is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
JP Morgan's social score
Social score: 12.45/100
JP Morgan's social score of 12.45 puts it squarely in the 3rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that JP Morgan is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
JP Morgan's governance score
Governance score: 7.4/100
JP Morgan's governance score puts it squarely in the 3rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that JP Morgan is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
JP Morgan's controversy score
Controversy score: 3/5
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. A high-profile company, JP Morgan scored a 3 out of 5 for controversy – a middle-of-the-table result reflecting that JP Morgan hasn't always managed to keep its nose clean.
Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) summary
JPMorgan Chase & Co was last rated for ESG on: 2019-01-01.
| Total ESG score | 24.51 |
|---|---|
| Total ESG percentile | 28.52 |
| Environmental score | 1.16 |
| Environmental score percentile | 3 |
| Social score | 12.45 |
| Social score percentile | 3 |

JP Morgan share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 28.35% of net profits
Recently JP Morgan has paid out, on average, around 28.35% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.69% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), JP Morgan shareholders could enjoy a 2.69% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In JP Morgan's case, that would currently equate to about $3.6 per share.
While JP Morgan's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that JP Morgan may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
JP Morgan's most recent dividend payout was on 31 January 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 5 January 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have JP Morgan's shares ever split?
JP Morgan's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 12 June 2000. So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your JP Morgan shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for JP Morgan shares which in turn could have impacted JP Morgan's share price.
JP Morgan share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, JP Morgan's shares have ranged in value from as little as $74.1573 up to $142.75. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while JP Morgan's is 1.2211. This would suggest that JP Morgan's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
