It is also relevant that the same chairman and CEO, Jamie Dimon, has been allowed by the Board of Directors to remain at the helm of the bank through two probation periods, two deferred prosecution agreements, three criminal felony counts, and $36 billion in fines. And by the way, those three criminal felony counts that occurred under Dimon are three more than the bank received during its prior 100 years."

Of course lately the bank frequently has operated as a broker and emissary for the U.S. government and its interventions. That may ameliorate the situation.

The commentary by the Martenses is headlined "Could JPMorgan Chase Be Hit with a Fourth Felony Count for Rigging Precious Metals Markets?" and it's posted at Wall Street on Parade here:
