Jamie Dimon Has Sold $462M in JPMorgan Stock but Also Bought $66M — a Rare Two-Way Insider Record

Alex Rivera

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon has sold $461.7M in career Form 4 transactions but also bought $65.7M — making him one of the few mega-bank CEOs with significant open-market purchases on record.

Jamie Dimon, the long-serving CEO of JPMorgan Chase (JPM), has a two-sided Form 4 record that stands out among bank CEOs: $461.7 million in career sales alongside $65.7 million in career purchases. The most recent filing (February 19, 2026) covers recent transactions as Dimon continues his multi-decade tenure at the top of America's largest bank.

Key Facts

  • Career sell value: $461.7 million
  • Career buy value: $65.7 million — unusually high for a CEO of this stature
  • Latest filing: February 19, 2026
  • Tenure: CEO since 2005, Chairman since 2006
  • Notable: Dimon's 2016 purchases during a banking stock selloff became a widely cited bullish signal

Context: Why the Buy Side Matters

Most mega-cap CEOs show $0 in open-market purchases on their Form 4 record — they acquire shares only through compensation. Dimon is different. His $65.7M in career buys includes notable open-market purchases during periods of banking sector stress, most famously in January 2016 when he bought $26.6 million in JPM shares during a market selloff.

The buy-side record creates a unique baseline for interpreting Dimon's selling: when he sells, it's compensation management; when he buys, it's historically been a conviction signal that markets have noticed.

What to Watch

  • Succession planning: Dimon is in his 20th year as CEO. Any changes in selling pace could relate to estate or succession planning, not market views
  • Banking sector context: JPMorgan appears in the top 12 of most major 13F filers, including Wells Fargo, BNY Mellon, and Ameriprise
  • Future open-market buys: If Dimon makes another significant purchase, it would be his first since the 2016 banking stress episode — a signal the market would take seriously
