JPig (JPMorgan Chase nickname)

“JPig” or “JPIG” is an unflattering nickname for the banking firm JPMorgan Chase & Co. The bank is partly named after financier John Pierpont Morgan (1837-1913). “JPIG” has been cited in print since at least May 2009.
   
JPMorgan Chase has also been nicknamed “J. P. Moron” (cited in print since at least 1997) and “J. P. Morgue” (cited in print since at least 2007).

BS BOB!!!!! WHERE IS THE TRUTH IN REPORTING Barron’s wrote:
Hey BOb!!!!!! Try doig some research. There has only been a court case going on for like a year now. Why don’t you report on that or does Barrons=JPIG. Stop being a bashing outlet for the Evil Empire and do what you are supposed to get paid to do. OPEN YOUR EYES AND EARS. Report on everything. JPIG and FDIC haven’t gotten any rulings in their favor.
