Frequently asked questions

Which performed better, JPMorgan Chase or MetLife?

Over the past five years JPMorgan Chase stock returned +166% and MetLife returned +95% in US dollars, so JPMorgan Chase has been the stronger performer in that window. Past performance says little about the future, which is why the chart on this page lets you check other periods too.

Can I buy both JPMorgan Chase and MetLife shares?

Yes. Nothing stops you owning both companies, and many investors do exactly that instead of trying to pick the winner. Both are available to investors worldwide through a broker such as Interactive Brokers.

Is it safer to buy an ETF instead?

A broad index fund holds hundreds of companies at once, usually including both of these, so a single bad year at one business barely dents it. Owning individual shares concentrates that risk, which is why many beginners keep single stocks to a small slice of a mostly fund-based portfolio.
