Daily Video Update: Friday the 13th and the price of "Whale Meat"

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Friday, the 13th of July.

This morning before the bell, JP Morgan Chase announced their earnings for the second quarter and the size of the loss they took on a synthetic derivative (whale) trade made out of their London office. I guess the price of whale meat is about $5.8 billion. We may see more losses from that trade come out later, but for now they're admitting to a $5.8 billion loss. However, the market is acting in a positive manner to this earnings announcement and JP Morgan Chase is trending higher for the day and is now also higher for the week. The same cannot be said for the overall stock market, which is at this moment showing a net loss for the week.
