JPMorgan chief Dimon praises former adversary Elon Musk, CNBC reports

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/jpmorgan-chief-dimon-praises-former-adversary-elon-musk-cnbc-reports-2025-01-22/

Jan 22 (Reuters) - JPMorgan Chase (JPM.N), opens new tab CEO Jamie Dimon and Tesla (TSLA.O), opens new tab chief Elon Musk, once adversaries in a prolonged legal battle, have settled their differences, the banker told CNBC in an interview on Wednesday.
"Elon and I have hugged it out," Dimon said, while praising Musk for running multiple high-profile companies such as Tesla, SpaceX and Neuralink. "The guy is our Einstein."
The biggest U.S. lender had sued Tesla in 2021, kicking off a drawn-out dispute that was at least in part tied to Musk's infamous 2018 tweet where he said he had "funding secured" to take the EV giant private, only to abandon that plan a few weeks later.

Right?

Einstein was our Einstein. He was as American as Trump's wife.

After Donald Trump took office as president again in January 2025, Dimon said he supported Trump's tariff policies. Dimon had previously said that the tariffs were a threat to the US economy.
