[JPMorgan CEO: No Severe Inflation If Iran Conflict Doesn't Prolong] According to a report by Jinse Finance, on March 2 local time, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon stated at the annual leveraged finance conference in Miami that inflation could become the 'skunk at the party' for the U.S. economy. 'Inflation could be higher than people expect, and if that really happens, it would be like a skunk showing up at the party, ruining the mood,' Dimon said. 'Hopefully, that won't happen.' Trump warned that actions against Iran could last for weeks, and weekend airstrikes resulted in the deaths of Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei and other senior officials. 'For now, this will slightly push up gasoline prices, but if the situation doesn't last long, it won't cause a severe inflationary shock,' Dimon said. 'However, if it lasts for a long time, that's a different story.' (Zhitong Finance)
