Canaccord Genuity Morning Coffee on JP Morgan Chase (NYSE: JPM): Double trouble.

Bloomberg reported Tuesday that JP Morgan’s second-quarter trading loss in its chief investment office may top $4.2 billion, more than double the initial prediction of $2.0 billion. CEO Jamie Dimon stated that losses could grow and it might take the rest of the year to liquidate trades. A Wall Street analyst predicted pre-tax loss would help cut Q2 earnings to $0.65 a share, a 30% decline from an earlier estimate of $0.93. But he highlighted that some of the bank’s core businesses continue to deliver and expects strong mortgage-banking revenue in the quarter combined with realized security gains and a debt valuation gain, will amount to about $2 billion in revenue to offset the trading loss. Excluding the trading losses, DVA and securities gains, he estimates second-quarter operating earnings per share of $0.82.
