<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44608617/jp-morgan-hikes-us-recession-odds-to-40-tariffs-create-a-dilemma-for-the-fed">JPMorgan Chase</a> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) has quietly shut down Capital Connect, its startup-venture capital matchmaking platform launched just two years ago. The site went offline in late 2024 without a formal announcement from the bank, and sources familiar with the decision say the platform failed to meet expectations, according to <a href="https://fortune.com/article/jpmorgan-chase-banking-startups-venture-capital-capital-connect-silicon-valley-bank/">Fortune</a>.
Capital Connect was introduced in 2022 as a bold move to deepen JPMorgan's presence in the venture capital space. Designed to streamline fundraising for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45298199/vogue-approved-startup-mull-club-recycles-over-1500-pounds-of-plastic-into-designer-homeware-backed-by-fortnum-mason-and-lush">startup</a> founders and strengthen ties with VC firms, the platform was seen as JPMorgan's answer to Silicon Valley Bank's once-dominant position in the startup ecosystem, Fortune reports.

</ul>
Capital Connect promised seamless fundraising tools, streamlined investor matchmaking, and integrations with JPMorgan&#8217;s broader banking services. The launch came in October 2022, just two months after the bank <a href="https://www.jpmorgan.com/about-us/corporate-news/2022/jpmorgan-completes-acquisition-of-global-shares">acquired</a> Global Shares, a company offering software for managing employee stock plans, and shortly before it closed its acquisition of data analytics firm Aumni, as confirmed in a statement by <a href="https://www.dlapiper.com/en-us/news/2023/05/dla-piper-advises-aumni-in-its-business-combination-with-jp-morgan">DLA Piper</a> in May 2023.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Competitive Pressures and a Shifting Market</h2>
Four sources familiar with the matter confirmed that Capital Connect simply didn't meet expectations, according to Fortune. One of those sources told Fortune that Capital Connect "didn't really reach a state where it had bespoke value to offer all ends of the marketplace."
Despite the platform's ambitious vision, Capital Connect struggled to gain meaningful traction in the market. Though JPMorgan has not officially disclosed the reasons behind its quiet closure, the decision shows that the initiative may have fallen short of delivering the strategic impact originally envisioned. Rather than continue pouring resources into a standalone product, the bank is now redirecting its focus toward deepening its relationships with the venture capital ecosystem through its existing, more established banking channels, according to<a href="https://www.crowdfundinsider.com/2025/05/239293-jpmorgan-discontinues-capital-connect-platform-shifts-focus-to-traditional-banking-relationships/"> Crowdfund Insider</a>.

Meanwhile, global venture capital was entering a cooling phase.<a href="https://news.crunchbase.com/venture/startup-investment-charts-q1-2025/"> Crunchbase</a> says that in the first quarter of this year, global venture capital funding hit $113 billion, but according to<a href="https://fortune.com/2025/04/01/openai-finalizes-40-billion-funding-at-300-billion-value/"> Fortune</a>, over $40 billion of that came from OpenAI's raise alone.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">JPMorgan Shifts Strategy While Preserving Startup Ties</h2>
Despite the closure, JPMorgan says its commitment to the innovation economy hasn't wavered. Most of the 200 employees who worked on Capital Connect were reassigned across the firm, especially into JPMorgan's global banking and digital services units, Fortune reports.
Capital Connect's backend is now being repurposed for another project JPMorgan plans to unveil in the coming months, according to Fortune. Global Shares, once part of the Capital Connect bundle, has been rebranded as J.P. Morgan Workplace Solutions and remains active.

The bank has also bulked up its innovation economy business through other strategic moves. JPMorgan in May 2023 swooped in <a href="https://www.jpmorganchase.com/ir/news/2023/jpmc-acquires-substantial-majority-of-assets-and-assumes-certain-liabilities-of-first-republic-bank">to acquire</a> the bulk of First Republic's assets after the bank became the second-largest U.S. bank failure since 2008, according to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-05-01/first-republic-ranks-as-second-largest-ever-us-bank-failure">Bloomberg</a>. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. <a href="https://www.fdic.gov/resources/resolutions/bank-failures/failed-bank-list/first-republic.html">confirmed</a> in May 2023 that First Republic was closed by California regulators and placed into receivership before JPMorgan was selected as the buyer.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Lesson in Moving Fast and Adapting Faster</h2>
JPMorgan's attempt to become the &#8220;startup banker&#8221; through Capital Connect didn't land, but the bank hasn't slowed down. With over 500 bankers now working in its innovation economy group and nearly 10,000 venture-backed clients, the bank is doubling down on services, not platforms, to build long-term loyalty in the space, according to Fortune.
Capital Connect can be seen as an experiment that proved traditional finance can't always match the speed, expectations, or ethos of startup culture with technology alone.&nbsp;

Capital Connect Crumbles: JPMorgan's $175M Bet On Startup Platform Ends Amidst Venture Capital Market Turmoil

MercadoLibre's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MELI#NYSE">MELI</a>) short percent of float has fallen 19.89% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 715 thousand shares sold short, which is 1.41% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.1 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for MercadoLibre has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing MercadoLibre's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, MercadoLibre's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.79%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Looking into the current session, Adobe Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADBE#NASDAQ">ADBE</a>) shares are trading at $403.01, after a 0.89% increase. Moreover, over the past month, the stock increased by 15.54%, but in the past year, decreased by 16.64%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is undervalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747324829_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Adobe P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Adobe has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 96.96 of the Software industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747324829_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
