Jamie Dimon isn't ruling out a recession yet
JPMorgan Chase Bank (JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon is warning that a recession isn't 'off the table' despite the recent trade truce between the United States and China. Dimon made the comments in an interview with Bloomberg TV while attending JPMorgan's annual Global Markets Conference in Paris and cited the global geopolitical tensions as a variable to watch. 'The geopolitical situation is very tense, very difficult, and hard to resolve,' he said of the trade wars and the military conflicts currently rattling the globe. He did also note that some of the uncertainty shadowing the markets pre-dates the Trump administration, citing large deficits, inflation, and higher interest rates. 'I will defer to economists who give it about a 50 percent chance,' Dimon said, adding that all of the geopolitical uncertainty is inflationary and slowing the economy. His comments also come amid the slowing of consumer spending, which some economists worry could tip the nation into a recession. Data released Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau show that overall consumer spending was flat in April, rising 0.1 percent after rising 1.7 percent in March. The report noted that there may have been no increase at all in April and that the .01 is within the survey's margin of error. Sporting goods and hobby stores saw sales trend downward by 2.5 percent, leading the declines, while spending at department stores fell 1.4 percent. Economists say that a continued de-escalation of the U.S.-China trade war would help relieve the economic pressure. Goldman Sachs (GS), for instance, lowered its odds of a recession in the U.S. this year from 45 percent to 35 percent on Tuesday in the wake of the easing of the tariffs between the two countries.

Skechers Goes Private in USD 9.4 Bn Buyout Deal
The transaction, set to close in Q3 2025, will be financed through a mix of equity from 3G Capital and debt arranged by JPMorgan Chase Bank. You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. Footwear brand Skechers has agreed to be acquired by investment firm 3G Capital in a USD 9.4 billion deal, the company announced Monday. The all-cash offer values Skechers at USD 63 per share—a 28% premium over its last closing price—prompting a 25% premarket surge in its stock to USD 61.90. The buyout comes as Skechers struggles with uncertainty stemming from escalating US-China trade tensions. Last month, the company withdrew its annual forecast, citing the Trump administration's tariff hikes and erratic trade policy. US tariffs on Chinese imports, a key supply source for Skechers, have soared to 145%, heavily impacting the brand's margins. 3G Capital, controlled by Brazilian billionaire Jorge Paulo Lemann, is best known for major deals in the food and beverage sector, including Kraft Heinz. This marks a significant expansion into retail footwear. The transaction, set to close in Q3 2025, will be financed through a mix of equity from 3G Capital and debt arranged by JPMorgan Chase Bank. As Skechers prepares to go private, the deal signals a strategic reset for the brand amid ongoing geopolitical and economic headwinds.
