The biggest bank in the US is allocating capital to an investment in a company that specializes in drone defense technologies. According to a disclosure from the firm, Chase has become a “significant holder” of Droneshield (DRO), currently controlling at least 5.31% of outstanding shares. Droneshield is a company based in New South Wales, Australia, that specializes in radio frequency sensing, artificial intelligence (AI), and electronic warfare. The firm provides anti-drone technology to the government, military, law enforcement, VIPs and other entities. At time of writing, DRO is up 132% since January 1st of this year, and is up 1,475% from its 2020 low, currently trading at $1.34 AUD ($0.87). JPMorgan joins several other large institutions, including Vanguard, Charles Schwab, Fidelity and State Street, in becoming large holders of DRO.

Dimon sold 133,639 shares of the largest US bank by total assets on April 14th, for a total of approximately $31.50 million, and in February, the CEO sold 866,361 JPMorgan Chase shares worth about $233.78 million when the stock was trading close to all-time high levels.
