JPMorgan will be closely watched for clues about the banks' performance at the start of the year.
While the largest U.S. bank by assets has weathered the interest rate environment well since the Federal Reserve began raising interest rates two years ago, its smaller peers have seen their profits shrink.
The industry has been forced to pay up on deposits, as customers shift cash into higher-yielding instruments, putting pressure on margins. Concerns are also growing about rising losses on business loans, especially on office buildings and multifamily housing, and rising credit card defaults.
However, large banks are expected to outperform smaller banks this quarter, and expectations for JPMorgan are high. Analysts believe the bank could boost guidance for net interest income for 2024 as the Federal Reserve is forced to maintain interest rate levels amid stubborn inflation data.
Analysts will also want to hear what CEO Jamie Dimon has to say about the economy and the industry's efforts to respond to efforts to limit credit card and overdraft fees.

JPMorgan shares have jumped 15% this year, outpacing the KBW Bank Index's 3.9% gain.
