Wall Street’s top trader of 2016? It might be Jamie Dimon.
The JPMorgan Chase chief executive has earned a 62 percent return through Thursday on 500,000 shares of his bank’s stock that he bought back in February.
Dimon plunked down $26.6 million — about a year’s total compensation, paying an average of $53.18 a share, according to company filings.
JPMorgan shares closed Thursday at $86. More than a third of the gains came after Nov. 8, when Donald Trump was elected president.
Dimon’s February buy is now worth $43.1 million. The value of his total stake in the bank, some 6.7 million shares, is worth $ 580.2 million.
Joe Evangelisti, a spokesman for the bank, declined to comment.
