JPMorgan banker jumps from Hong Kong headquarters

A 33-year-old man jumped to his death from the skyscraper roof of U.S. investment bank JPMorgan Chase & Co’s Asia headquarters on Tuesday, police said.

JP Morgan has confirmed that the man who jumped was an employee at the firm with the last name Li. He was a junior investment banker.

Well, this is the third JP Morgan death since the middle of January. Two are confirmed suicides. The other is a guy in CT who died in his home from unknown causes. We’re waiting on the toxicology report. I think it’s too soon to draw any ominous conclusions, but the banker suicides, and particularly ones from JP Morgan, are worth watching.

Vietnam shot two at the beginning of the month.

Well, they have over a quarter million employees, so I don't know if 2-3 suicides in over a month is that much of an aberration. I do agree completely that it's worth watching, but I don't know that it means anything yet. We shall see.

[wideawake]

Nothing, if one has eyes to see but does not see...

So, to recap:

(1) There is an obvious pattern here, that is well corroborated by clear logical connections and documented facts.

(2) You can't describe the pattern, or remember the logical connections right now, but we should trust you, they are definitely there.

(3) If you've already told me to trust you and I still want to see some logic and some facts, then I'm either blind, or in on the conspiracy.

Wait a minute . . . I believe that the IRS targeted conservatives, and the NSA listens to me . . . yet I don't believe the "banker suicide" conspiracy. Am I really one of them?

Wait a while and see of the truth comes out.

I trust you both.

Stop it! You appear reasonable!

You’d think the finanacial industry could afford psychiatric services for its employees.

Don’t. Don’t trust, but verify.

A dozen people dropping dead of an emerging disease does not constitute an epidemic, but it is cause to pay attention.

The prudent man will pay attention and advise others to do likewise.

[no-to-illegals]

Nully, you are verified. {{HUGS}} Nully.

I’m guessing that BRK didn’t realize this has already been posted on FR at least twice. The Chink that killed himself, tried some financial move that was supposed to return a billion yuan and instead it sunk out of site. He couldn’t stand facing up to the fact that he dumped the family fortune into the waste basket and killed himself.

Leaps?

Rigghhhtttt...

[Talisker]

I think you're actually not joking.

I can't confirm or deny whether I'm joking or not.

My local high school saw three suicides in two years, after none for decades. Should I be concerned?

*******************************

Depends ,, seen this guy hanging around?

[SisterK]

The banker who killed himself by shooting himself multiple and then again multiple times with a nail gun, is well...nah. Nevermind.

[SisterK]

thank you
you get it

[1rudeboy]

I thought the guy worked for a title company?

[SisterK]

Your right. One of them is a title company.

[Neidermeyer]

The title company guy was dirty... so therefore suspicious ... the rest ... I’m just keeping track and not passing judgement.
