If You'd Invested $1,000 in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) 5 Years Ago, Here's How Much You'd Have Today
Key Points JPMorgan Chase has fared exceptionally well despite a changing macro landscape in the past few years. The stock's performance has been driven by soaring earnings. Investors might want to think twice before adding this business to their portfolios today. 10 stocks we like better than JPMorgan Chase › JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM) continues to remind investors why it's the gold standard in the financial services industry. The largest U.S. bank reported revenue and earnings that crushed Wall Street estimates for the second quarter (ended June 30). Shares have been a big winner so far in 2025. The latest financial update is just another example of how JPMorgan Chase's business keeps humming along, to the benefit of long-term shareholders. If you invested $1,000 in this top bank stock five years ago, here's how much you'd have today. Navigating a dynamic macro environment For such a mature and massive entity, it can be surprising to learn that JPMorgan's stock has produced a total return of 253% in the past five years (as of July 31). This comes from a combination of the share price appreciating and the company's dividend payout, turning $1,000 into $3,530 today. What's impressive is that the business has successfully navigated a dynamic macro environment. Interest rates were extremely low after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, before rising rapidly in 2022. They appear to be on their way down, as the Federal Reserve is expected to cut rates before the year ends. Besides that, there have been supply chain bottlenecks, inflationary pressures, and the recent tariff uncertainty. In the face of these factors, JPMorgan's diluted earnings per share in Q2 2025 were still 280% higher than in the same period of 2020. Trading at a steep valuation This stock has been a huge winner in the past five years. Because of its current valuation, however, investors shouldn't expect a similar result between now and 2030. Shares trade at a price-to-book (P/B) ratio of over 2.4. That's a 92% premium compared to exactly five years ago. And it's essentially the stock's most expensive P/B multiple in two decades. JPMorgan Chase is a great business. But it's not a smart buy right now. Do the experts think JPMorgan Chase is a buy right now?

3 Great Energy Stocks to Buy This August
Key Points TotalEnergies is executing a unique long-term plan in the energy sector, using carbon profits to build a cleaner future. NextEra Energy sees powerful growth ahead. Brookfield Renewable is a top bet to play the renewable energy transition. 10 stocks we like better than NextEra Energy › Energy demand is growing briskly, and that bodes well for the companies producing the hydrocarbons we need today and those delivering the cleaner energy we'll need tomorrow. These energy companies should generate strong returns for investors as a result. TotalEnergies (NYSE: TTE), NextEra Energy (NYSE: NEE), and Brookfield Renewable (NYSE: BEPC) (NYSE: BEP) stand out to a few contributing analysts as great buys in the energy sector. Here's why they're such attractive investments this August. TotalEnergies is prepared for the clean energy transition Reuben Gregg Brewer (TotalEnergies): The integrated energy model that's being used by TotalEnergies stands out from its closest peers in a very important way. Most energy giants focus on owning assets that span from the upstream (production) through the midstream (pipelines) and on to the downstream (chemicals and refining). That's great, and it provides a way for investors to get energy exposure while softening the impact of volatile commodity prices. TotalEnergies adds electricity to the mix, with a collection of renewable power and electric generation assets. Although BP and Shell both professed to have similar ambitions in 2020, they have since walked back their plans on the electricity front. TotalEnergies, by contrast, has increased its focus on the space. And, notably, BP and Shell cut their dividends when they announced their clean energy shifts while TotalEnergies didn't cut, specifically stating that it recognized how important the dividend is to investors. So, in the end, BP and Shell investors were really just left with a dividend cut. TotalEnergies investors got dividend increases and the diversification benefit of the energy company's shift into electricity and clean energy. The really big benefit here, however, is long-term in nature. As peers focus on oil while the world slowly shifts toward renewable power, TotalEnergies is preparing today for the future. Add in a lofty 6.4% dividend yield (U.S. investors have to pay French taxes and fees on the income they collect), and Total Energies is a great long-term option in the energy patch. Powerful growth drivers Matt DiLallo (NextEra Energy): NextEra Energy is growing quickly, especially for a utility. Adjusted earnings per share rose 9.4% in the second quarter, powered by growth in its Florida electric utility and energy resources segment. The latter business continues to benefit from strong demand for renewable energy. NextEra's energy resource segment ended the first quarter with nearly 30 gigawatts of renewable projects in backlog, compared with 38 GW of operating assets. Building on this momentum, the company expects to keep growing in the coming years. NextEra projects its adjusted earnings per share will rise 6% to 8% annually through 2027. CEO John Ketchum said he would "be disappointed if we are not able to deliver financial results at or near the top of our adjusted earnings per share expectations ranges in each year through 2027, while maintaining our strong balance sheet and credit ratings." NextEra also expects about 10% annual dividend growth through at least next year. NextEra Energy should keep growing at a healthy rate well beyond that. Analysts expect U.S. power demand to surge in the coming decades, driven by the growth of AI data centers, electrification, and the onshoring of manufacturing. This will require far more renewable energy capacity. As a renewable-energy leader, NextEra Energy should benefit from this sector's surging demand. Given these strong growth prospects and its attractive dividend yield of more than 3%, NextEra stands out as a compelling long-term investment. With its share price having dropped nearly 10% since the company reported second-quarter earnings last month, it's a great buy this August. A top-notch energy dividend stock Neha Chamaria (Brookfield Renewable): The Trump administration's shift away from renewables won't stop the global energy transition. Global renewable electricity generation is projected to grow by nearly 90% between 2023 and 2030, according to the International Energy Agency. The BloombergNEF's new energy outlook 2025, meanwhile, projects renewable generation to grow by 84% between 2025 and 2030, and then double by 2050. Buying a top-notch renewable energy stock like Brookfield Renewable could therefore be one of your smartest investing moves now. That's because Brookfield Renewable not only generates over 40% cash flows from markets outside North America but is also one of the most diversified renewable energy plays, with operations across hydropower, wind, solar, and distributed energy and storage. Brookfield Renewable just signed a first-of-its-kind hydro power agreement with tech giant Google to deliver up to 3,000 megawatts of hydroelectric power in the U.S. This deal comes on the back of yet another solid quarter, with Brookfield Renewable generating record funds from operations (FFO) in its second quarter, up 10% year over year. With an ever-growing pipeline and a projected boom in demand for electricity driven by data centers, Brookfield Renewable is in the sweet spot and expects to grow its annual FFO per unit by over 10% in the long term. With Brookfield Renewable also targeting 5% to 9% annual dividend growth and its corporate shares yielding 4%, this energy stock is also among the top 10 dividend stocks to double up on now.

SOC INVESTOR ALERT: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Announces that Sable Offshore Corp. Investors with Substantial Losses Have Opportunity to Lead Investor Class Action Lawsuit
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The law firm of Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers or acquirers of Sable Offshore Corp. (NYSE: SOC) publicly traded securities between May 19, 2025 and June 3, 2025, both dates inclusive (the 'Class Period') and/or pursuant and/or traceable to Sable Offshore's registration statement issued in connection with Sable Offshore's May 21, 2025 secondary public offering ('SPO'), have until September 26, 2025 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Sable Offshore class action lawsuit. Captioned Johnson v. Sable Offshore Corp., No. 25-cv-06869 (C.D. Cal.), the Sable Offshore class action lawsuit charges Sable Offshore as well as certain of Sable Offshore's top executives and underwriters of the SPO with violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and/or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Sable Offshore class action lawsuit, please provide your information here: CASE ALLEGATIONS: Sable Offshore operates as an independent oil and gas company. According to the Sable Offshore class action lawsuit, on or about May 21, 2025, Sable Offshore conducted its SPO, issuing 10 million shares of its common stock at the offering price of $29.50 per share for proceeds of $295 million to Sable Offshore. The Sable Offshore class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period and in the SPO's offering documents represented that Sable Offshore had restarted oil production off the coast of California when it had not. The Sable Offshore class action lawsuit further alleges that on May 23, 2025, Eleni Kounalakis, the Lieutenant Governor of California and chair of the California State Lands Commission wrote a letter to Sable Offshore's Vice President of Environmental & Government Affairs, Steve Rusch, stating that a May 19, 2025 Sable Offshore press release 'appears to mischaracterize the nature of recent activities, causing significant public confusion and raising questions regarding Sable's intentions. Your press release also implies that Sable has restarted operations at the Santa Ynez Unit (SYU). However, Commission staff has informed me that the limited volume oil flows are the result of well-testing procedures required by the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement prior to restart. These activities do not constitute a resumption of commercial production or a full restart of the SYU.' The May 23 letter was not published on the internet for the general public to view until May 28, 2025, the complaint alleges. On this news, the price of Sable Offshore stock fell more than 15%, according to the Sable Offshore class action lawsuit. Then, on June 4, 2025, the complaint alleges that Sable Offshore revealed that '[o]n June 3, 2025, a Santa Barbara County Superior Court Judge granted ex parte requests from plaintiffs in Center for Biological Diversity, et al. v. California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, et al. (25CV02244) and Environmental Defense Center, et al. v. California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, et al. (25CV02247) for temporary restraining orders prohibiting Sable Offshore Corp. ('Sable') from restarting transportation of oil through the Las Flores Pipeline System pending the hearing on an order to show cause regarding a preliminary injunction scheduled for July 18, 2025.' On this news, the price of Sable Offshore stock fell further, according to the Sable Offshore class action lawsuit. THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Sable Offshore publicly traded securities during the Class Period and/or pursuant and/or traceable to the SPO to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Sable Offshore class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Sable Offshore class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Sable Offshore class action lawsuit.
