Is it better to start off as bulge bracket in Asia if I eventually want to be in the US in the mid to long term? What about boutiques like Coady Diemar?

I know Coady Diemar Partners. I would absolutely, 100% take JPM Asia over CDP NY.
Decision making here depends on your year in school to some extent, and some specific personal factors.
If you are a sophomore and want to be in NY for full-time, JPM Asia is not strictly better than Coady Diemar NY from a networking perspective, which I think is the most important thing leading up to junior year. While JPM is a much better brand name and I don't know what kind of work CDP is doing right now, being in New York - being able to physically meet with NY bankers and network on the ground - is actually a big advantage. It's probably about 50 / 50 between the two here, depending on how good you think you are at networking in-person, and what kind of experience you would get at JPM in Asia.
If you are a junior or not necessarily interested in NY for full-time, you always take JPM Asia. Not complicated, best chance to FT the offer around.
