curious as to what the commodities analyst in JP Morgan Chase would do?
I always thought Chase was basically the division related to the debit cards the JPM was offering - but an acquaintance has this role on their Facebook as a commodities analyst and he is based in Calgary in Alberta.
Now is this basically Investment Banking analyst and doing the same stuff, and he's just assigned to an industry group?

Chase = Commercial Banking + Cards
He probably works for JP Morgan, but just has the overall company (JP Morgan Chase) listed as his employer on facebook. Sounds like as a commodities analyst he is on the sales & trading side.
Yeah, the poster above is spot on.
JPM bought out Bear Stern's physical commodity business when they went bankrupt and recently bough the RBS Sempra commodity business as well - they have a few offices around. In the US, the commodities group is divided between Houston (Power, Coal, Natural Gas) and Calgary (Oil mostly).
So JPM Commodities is basically S&T work for the most part (some areas are kind of IB/PE though), but the program is split away from JPM's S&T division.
They have commodities offices in Calgary, Stamford, Houston, and NY.
analyzing commodities sounds very boring

JPM is the new MS
Do read the whole article - I am the idiot quoted in the detail :-). GS is still the lead. But anyone looking at commodities should look at the base metals side - this is where JPM is v strong as they have the Henry Bath warehouse. More generally Asia seems to be the real hotspot this year.
