This was an eye-watering 464 per cent rise on the same time last year.
JP Morgan chairman and chief executive Jamie Dimon said the results were partly driven by an improving economy.
He added: ‘With all of the stimulus spending, potential infrastructure spending, continued quantitative easing, strong consumer and business balance sheets and euphoria around the potential end of the pandemic, we believe that the economy has the potential to have extremely robust, multi-year growth.’
At Goldman Sachs, the bank’s traditional trading and investment banking units delivered bumper returns.
