JPMorgan Chase & Co. Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon warned that inflation could become a “skunk at a party” for the US economy.

“There’s some risk there’s more inflation than people think, and that could be like a skunk at a party if that ever happens,” Dimon said Monday in a CNBC interview at his firm’s annual leveraged finance conference in Miami. “Hopefully it doesn’t happen.”
