Rhea-AI Filing Summary

JPMorgan Chase & Co. provides an August 2026 performance update for the J.P. Morgan Kronos US Equity (JPUSKRSP) Index, a rules-based index established on June 11, 2021 that targets dynamic 50%, 100% or 150% exposure to the S&P 500 Price Index. The strategy combines turn-of-the-month seasonality, options-expiry momentum and month-end mean reversion, and reflects a 0.35% per annum index fee plus, in some cases, a notional financing cost linked to the Effective Federal Funds Rate. The index excludes dividends.

From July 2016 to July 2026, hypothetical and actual data show a Sharpe Ratio of 0.83, 10-year annualized volatility of 18.11%, and a 10-year annualized return of 15.08%, versus the S&P 500 Total Return Index at a 0.77 Sharpe, 21.24% volatility and 16.37% 10-year return. Recent annual index returns include 53.87% in 2020, -28.46% in 2022 and 28.43% in 2023, with detailed monthly results through July 2026.

The update highlights multiple risks: sponsor and calculation-agent discretion at J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, leverage up to 150%, strategy concentration around specific month windows, potential periods when the index is uninvested in the S&P 500, dependence on the Effective Federal Funds Rate and the index’s limited live history. All pre‑June 11, 2021 figures are hypothetical backtested results, and past or backtested performance is expressly stated as not indicative of future returns. Notes linked to the index are unsecured, not FDIC‑insured and may not suit all investors.

Sharpe Ratio financial
"The Sharpe Ratio on the previous page is a measure of risk-adjusted performance"
A measure that shows how much extra return an investment has delivered for each unit of risk taken, comparing its additional return above a safe, no‑risk asset to how bumpy its returns have been. Think of it as miles per gallon for investing: a higher Sharpe ratio means you are getting more reward for the same amount of ups and downs, which helps investors compare funds or strategies on a risk‑adjusted basis.
backtested performance financial
"Historical performance measures for the Index represent hypothetical backtested performance"
Effective Federal Funds Rate financial
"a notional financing cost based on the Etfective Federal Funds Rate"
The effective federal funds rate is the average interest rate banks pay each other for overnight loans of reserve balances held at the central bank, calculated from actual transactions across the market. It matters to investors because it acts as a benchmark that helps set borrowing costs, loan and bond rates, and company financing expenses—like a thermostat for the price of short-term money that influences stock and bond valuations.
notional financing cost financial
"include the deduction of a fee of 0.35% per annum and, in some circumstances, a notional financing cost"
notional assets and liabilities financial
"The Index comprises notional assets and liabilities. There is no actual portfolio of assets"

FAQ

What is the J.P. Morgan Kronos US Equity (JPUSKRSP) Index described in the JPM 424B3 filing?

The JPUSKRSP Index is a rules-based strategy targeting 50%, 100% or 150% exposure to the S&P 500 Price Index, using turn‑of‑month, options‑expiry momentum and month‑end mean‑reversion signals, less a 0.35% per annum index fee and potential financing cost.

How has the JPUSKRSP Index performed versus the S&P 500 Total Return Index for JPM?

Over July 2016–July 2026, the JPUSKRSP Index shows a 0.83 Sharpe Ratio, 18.11% 10‑year volatility and 15.08% 10‑year annualized return, compared with the S&P 500 Total Return Index at a 0.77 Sharpe, 21.24% volatility and 16.37% return.

What fees and costs apply to the JPUSKRSP Index underlying JPM’s structured notes?

The index level reflects a 0.35% per annum fee and, in some circumstances, a notional financing cost based on the Effective Federal Funds Rate. These deductions reduce index performance relative to the S&P 500 Price Index, which also excludes dividends here.

What are the main risks of notes linked to the JPUSKRSP Index in the JPM filing?

Risks include leverage up to 150%, strategy concentration around specific month periods, possible times when the index is uninvested in the S&P 500, dependence on the Effective Federal Funds Rate, sponsor discretion, limited live history and the unsecured, non‑deposit nature of the notes.

How does JPM describe the backtested performance of the JPUSKRSP Index?

Data before June 11, 2021 are hypothetical backtested, derived from S&P 500 Price Index history. JPM stresses that past performance and especially hypothetical backtested results are not indicative of future outcomes and have inherent modelling limitations.
