Of JP Morgan? That's a good question.
JP Morgan is on a similar level as Black rock in terms of assets owned and its been operating for well over 100 years. It is its own mothership though it'll be deeply connected with Blackrock.
JP Morgan has 40-50 trillion in derivatives contracts.

Or did you mean US Treasuries? They are mostly owned by the Fed.
Reverse Repo is getting drained to buy US Treasuries and keep interest rates low. Set to run out by January. Peaked at over 2 trillion earlier this year, now 1.5 trillion in a few weeks.

That is so confusing and explains how they have been manipulating and playing with this stuff all along. I thought stocks were offered so people could buy a percentage into your company so you could use their money to help better your company and when/if they got ready to part with their stocks it would be valued at the percentage of what the company is then worth. Instead they are beating against the odds, shorting and etc
The problem with stocks also is that if the executives do something that will knowingly bring the stock price down, they are liable to be sued.
So if Blackrock/Vanguard buy up largest share in a company, they can use the threat of selling the shares in order to blackmail executives into doing what they want. This regulation has become a means to control.
This is how all your companies can go woke as well along with being offered ESG loan benefits for being the wokest and most backward.
