Dimon says J.P. Morgan won't take part in PPIP program "We have no intent on using PPIP at all. We don't need it," Dimon said on a conference call with investors and analysts on Thursday. Dimon said if the bank wants to buy troubled assets it will buy them, but it won't borrow from the government to do it. "We're certainly not going to borrow from the federal government because we've learned our lesson about that. But I do think that if PPIP is properly executed, it could be good for the system because it could give some prices to certain loans and help some companies do things they might not otherwise have been able to do," he concluded.

If you look at some of the stats for JPM's sub-prime loans and mortgages that were absorbed in the WAMU acquisition, Q1 wasn't too bad at all. If anyone has the power to survive this collapse in the housing market, it's JPM. Their trading desk results were also solid.
JPM loan loss reserves as a% of non-performing loans have been going down all 2008/09. Dimon's defense was 'NPL will peak at some point then you dont need any more reserves'
