Dimon said he wouldn't be a buyer of either equities or long-dated U.S. Treasurys at current prices."I do think those risks are probably bigger than other people think," Dimon said, pointing to wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, tensions between the U.S. and China, and rising military spending in a time of mounting government deficits.In this article.SPXJPMFollow your favorite stocksCREATE FREE ACCOUNTwatch nowVIDEO5:1705:17Sneak peek of Wilfred Frost's one-on-one with JPMorgan CEO Jamie DimonSquawk on the StreetJPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said investors are underestimating the risks facing the global economy and that he wouldn't buy either equities or long-dated U.S. Treasurys at their current prices.In an hourlong interview with Wilfred Frost released late Monday, Dimon said markets aren't fully accounting for a growing list of geopolitical and fiscal threats."I do think those risks are probably bigger than other people think," Dimon said, pointing to wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, tensions between the U.S. and China, and rising military spending in a time of mounting government deficits.Asked whether markets are underpricing the chance of a major shock, Dimon said it's difficult to know exactly what risks are already reflected in asset prices."It's possible something's baked in, but what's not baked in is what actually happens," he said. Dimon, who leads the world's largest bank by market cap, often warns the public about the economic risks he sees.
