Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan, stated in an interview with CNBC that the Federal Reserve is still working to contain inflation. He expressed respect for Fed Chair Jerome Powell but admitted that they had lost some control over inflation.

Interest Rates Could Remain Higher for Longer

Despite this, he remains optimistic about the current state of the US economy, with consumers having plenty of money and job opportunities available.
