AUSTIN, Texas (BusinessWire EON) March 30, 2007 --
Kershner Trading, a leading proprietary trading and technology firm, is
growing its business by hiring specialists away from the NYSE and AMEX.
In the last few months, Kershner has interviewed more than a dozen
specialists, who are currently on the NYSE or AMEX, or who have been
subjected to recent rounds of industry downsizing.
“Many of these specialists are the consummate
traders,” said Andy Kershner, CEO and founder
of the company. “It just so happens that they
want more control over their own destiny, a concept that is slowly
slipping away from them on the floor. They want to be able to trade any
stock that is moving and be able to use specialized technology to
leverage their trading ideas and abilities.”
Kershner Trading offers an ideal situation since the focus is on
short-term proprietary trading, where traders can aggressively grow
their career, according to Kershner.
“What makes Kershner different is that we are
an integrated firm, where members trade the firm’s
capital and split profits with the firm,” he
says. “And yet there’s
also a team atmosphere, where profitable traders can share ideas and
benefit from the team’s overall success.
“Another important differentiator at Kershner
is that we are a technology company. We have developed and maintained a
trading platform that is second to none in the industry. We believe that
large technological and operational investments are totally necessary to
ensure that their traders are successful.”
