Has The #1 Spot Been Taken Over By JPM?

JPM has been absolutely shredding the competition in the league tables and GS has slipped in US M&A this year to #4 after Citi of all banks. Citi, a mid-tier BB.

Also I've seen a bunch of dumb-as-bricks DEI hires at GS offices this cycle that has made me lose faith in them, while JPM juniors continue to be rock-solid. This is mirrored in their leadership (Dimon the GOAT vs DJ Sol the mess) as well.

I strongly encourage everyone to take a JPM offer over GS if they have the opportunity.
