JPMorgan authorized a $50 billion buyback and raised dividend after passing stress test, with strong earnings growth.

JPMorgan Chase announced a 10% dividend increase and a $50 billion share repurchase program after passing the Federal Reserve's bank stress test. The bank's tier 1 capital ratio was 14.3%, well above the Fed's 11.5% requirement. In the first quarter of 2026, earnings per share rose 17% year over year. However, the stock is trading near all-time highs with price-to-sales, price-to-earnings, and price-to-book ratios all above their five-year averages, suggesting a stretched valuation.
