JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon said to rule out joining Trump administration

JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon has no intensions of joining the Trump administration and will remain at the helm of the megabank, Reuters reported Wednesday, citing an unnamed source.

The news puts to rest speculation among both Republicans and Democrats about Dimon being a candidate for Treasury secretary.

Trump, who will return to the White House after winning the 2024 presidential election, in July retracted a previous statement about potentially appointing Dimon as Treasury secretary.
