"The Axios Show": Jamie Dimon defends Iran war as overdue
"They've been killing people around the world for 45-plus years. They've killed a lot of Americans. They've funded Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis ... they have terrorist cells here."
"Does it create all this uncertainty? Absolutely. Does it create more short-term risk for oil prices? Absolutely. I'm praying it ends well."
"I literally hope it turns out well and that somehow we get peace in the Middle East permanently."
"A successful outcome neutralizing the threat from Tehran would ultimately outweigh the current market turmoil - while acknowledging that outcome is far from certain."
Dimon emphasized that Iran has been a source of global violence for over 45 years, killing many Americans and funding terrorist groups. He noted Iran's ongoing nuclear ambitions and advanced missile capabilities. Despite the regime's resilience, he acknowledged the uncertainty and short-term risks to oil prices. Dimon expressed hope for a peaceful resolution in the Middle East, suggesting that neutralizing the threat from Iran could ultimately benefit the market, even though the outcome remains uncertain.
