The most accurate play in each family

Each family's play whose calls went the right way most often, tested on 351 stocks since 2005, and what it says about JPM now.

A call is right when the stock rose after an in call or fell after an out call. Trend plays are built to take many small losses for a few big wins, so their hit rates run lower; being right often isn't the same as making the most money. How we test a play.

Each candle is one trading day: the box spans the open and close, the thin line the day's high and low. Hollow boxes closed up, filled boxes closed down. Toggle the averages to see the trend the plays read. Dots above the candles mark news and company filings: hover or tap one to see the story and how the stock moved from the last close before it, against the market on the same days.

What moved JPM lately

Its biggest move against the S&P 500 in the last 30 sessions, the news read on each, and how reliably that kind of news has moved stocks before. How it's measured

Tue Sep 22−3.4% against the S&P 5003.4× a normal day

JPM −3.4%, the S&P 500 0.0% that session; −3.3% against the S&P 500 over five sessions.

No earnings report, rating change, 8-K filing or news story on JPM was found for this session. Be The Puck's headline archive for JPM starts Oct 2, so news stories from that day aren't in it. The S&P 500 moved 0.0%. The 25 other Financials stocks Be The Puck covers moved −0.4% on average, so most of the move was its own.

If the market cracks: the storm test

How the storm test works

  • It fell about 1.3× as far as its index in past crashes.
  • It carries 3.7× as much debt as equity.

  • Downside capture2%In months the S&P 500 fell, this fell 2% as much on average (it often rose anyway).
  • Two-year change+55%Run-ups of 100%+ crashed 40% or more within two years about half the time (Greenwood, Shleifer & You).

  • Debt to equity3.71×

A crash marks every stock down; debt decides which companies come through. The storm test scores both halves: how hard the stock swings with the market, and how much debt it carries into a downturn. It describes fragility; it does not predict a crash.
