JPMorgan Makes a $750B Bet on the Housing Market

JPMorgan Chase, America’s largest bank, just made a big bet on housing—a $750B bet to be exact. At a time when most people hope home prices will fall, JPMorgan is gearing up to lend and invest in a huge way. Could this be a sign that those who buy now will be thanking themselves in the years to come? We’re getting into the details in today’s show.

It’s another housing market update! First, we’re touching on whether or not the market has already peaked in 2026. We still have four full months left in the year, but with home sales falling in July, it could signal that the hot summer is starting to cool. But a surprising type of home is still selling fast—it’s not the newly renovated house flip—it’s the ugly, outdated home next door. Why? We’re explaining in this episode.

JPMorgan Chase makes a $750B bet on housing, signaling that America’s largest bank is bullish on a certain type of real estate. Finally, the latest inflation rate update—the CPI (consumer price index) stayed in check last month, but is it enough to stop the Federal Reserve from raising rates?
