Jane Street Paid Employees $9.4 Billion, Twice What It Paid Last Year, After Record 2025 Results Jane Street Group has evolved from a niche trading shop into one of Wall Street’s most profitable firms and employees are reaping the rewards. The firm paid roughly $9.4 billion in compensation last year, more than twice what it distributed a year earlier, according to Bloomberg . On average, that translated to about $2.7 million per employee, far ahead of traditional banks like Goldman Sachs. The massive payouts followed a record year in which Jane Street generated nearly $40 billion in trading revenue, outpacing major banks and rivals in the market-making business. Bloomberg writes that the firm started in 2000 trading American depositary receipts before expanding into ETFs and other electronically traded assets. As more markets became automated, Jane Street scaled aggressively and now handles trading across equities, bonds, ETFs, and other products. Its financial resources have grown just as dramatically. The firm’s internal capital base has climbed to roughly $45 billion, up nearly twentyfold over the past decade, giving it significant flexibility to capitalize on market swings without relying heavily on outside funding. It has also raised additional cash through debt markets. That war chest has allowed Jane Street to move beyond day-to-day trading. The firm has built positions in high-growth tech companies, including Anthropic, and has also backed CoreWeave while exploring deals involving Fluidstack. Jane Street also operates differently from most major financial firms. It doesn’t have a traditional CEO hierarchy and is instead overseen by a group of partners. The firm is well known for recruiting mathematicians, engineers, and problem-solvers to sharpen its trading systems. Despite regulatory and legal challenges — including scrutiny in India and litigation tied to the collapse of Terraform Labs — Jane Street continues to widen its lead. It outperformed Citadel Sec...

格隆汇5月4日｜美国中央司令部表示，军队将于5月4日开始支持“自由行动”，以恢复商业船只通过霍尔木兹海峡的航行自由。这项由总统下令执行的任务，旨在为寻求自由通过这一重要国际贸易通道的商船提供支持。全球四分之一的海上石油贸易以及大量燃料和化肥产品均通过该海峡运输。中央司令部司令布拉德·库珀上将表示：“在我们维持海上封锁的同时，对这项防御性任务的支持对于地区安全和全球经济至关重要。”上周，美国国务院宣布与国防部合作推出一项新举措，旨在加强国际伙伴间的协调与信息共享，以支持海峡的海上安全。“海上自由构想”旨在将外交行动与军事协调相结合，这在“自由行动”期间将至关重要。美军对“自由行动”的支持将包括导弹驱逐舰、100多架陆基和海基飞机、多领域无人平台以及15,000名官兵。

natatravel/iStock via Getty Images Earlier this week, the United Arab Emirates announced it was leaving OPEC after nearly 60 years, a move that could weaken the oil cartel's influence over pricing. We asked SA analysts Long Player , Brett Ashcroft Green , and APAC Research what impact they thought the UAE's exit would have on the energy sector. Long Player : I don't expect the exit of the UAE from OPEC to make a big difference. You have to realize that OPEC is responsible for something like 30% of the world's oil output. The exit of any one member is for the most part not a big deal, given that 70% of the world's production comes from outside of OPEC (in very round numbers). Like everyone else, OPEC is basically a price taker and not a price maker, except maybe occasionally in the short term. Drastic moves carry consequences, which OPEC and others learned in the 1980s. I don't think those lessons need repeating. For that reason, I view it as essentially a non-event and would not at this time vary my investment strategy because of it. Brett Ashcroft Green : The UAE follows Angola and Qatar in exiting OPEC. While the UAE only produces about a third of the oil output of Saudi Arabia, the trend may cause other future exits. If this spurs Saudi Arabia to soon lose control of OPEC as the most important member, then the prospect of oil flooding the market becomes more of an important data point. For now, the Strait of Hormuz remains shut. The UAE has suffered both damage from drone attacks and decreases in expat tourism/business spending. The UAE logically may want to recoup losses from the war at any cost to refill any coffers in government shortfalls that already allow expats to operate without paying local income tax. The longer this war continues, the more likely OPEC will fall apart, in my opinion. Members will want to control their cash flows independently. For now, oil is in a constraint due to this ongoing dual blockade by both Iran and the U.S. Navy. It's a long w...

Three people have died and one is in intensive care after a cluster of hantavirus infections linked to a cruise ship in the Atlantic Ocean, the World Health Organization said Sunday. One case has been confirmed by laboratory testing and five others are suspected, according to the Geneva-based United Nations agency. “WHO is aware of and supporting a public health event involving a cruise vessel sailing in the Atlantic Ocean,” WHO said in a statement posted on X. “To date, one case of hantavirus infection has been laboratory confirmed, and there are five additional suspected cases. Of the six affected individuals, three have died and one is currently in intensive care in South Africa.” Hantavirus is a rare but potentially deadly infection that typically spreads to humans through contact with infected rodents, especially their urine, droppings or saliva. People can become infected by breathing in particles contaminated with the virus, often in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces. In severe cases, the infection can lead to hantavirus pulmonary syndrome , a condition that causes fluid to build up in the lungs and makes breathing difficult. Early symptoms often resemble the flu — fever, fatigue and muscle aches — but can quickly worsen. Person-to-person transmission is uncommon, but has been reported in limited outbreaks. “While rare, hantavirus may spread between people, and can lead to severe respiratory illness and requires careful patient monitoring, support and response,” the WHO said. Investigations into the outbreak are ongoing, including lab testing and efforts to trace how the virus spread among those on board. Medical care and support are being provided to passengers and crew, the WHO added, with an effort underway to determine the genomic sequence of the virus. The agency is working with national authorities and the ship’s operator to manage the situation, including evacuating sick passengers. It has notified countries under international health rules and said...

英國廣播公司(BBC)報道，隨著能源價格上升，以及人工智能(AI)相關投資熱潮出現，金融界正出現跟2008年金融海嘯前相似的景象，但有專家指，如今的銀行體系比十多年前更能應對衝擊，預計即使出現金融危機，也不會達到當年的規模。 ▍ 金融界現今景況與08年危機前夕相似？ 報道指，在2008年金融海嘯爆發前，金融體系中曾有早期警號。在2007年，由於業主難以償還貸款，部分銀行和基金限制投資者提款，或把基金清盤。為免無法收回資金，銀行之間也暫停互相放貸，引發「信貸緊縮」，導致金融危機。 而時至今日，多個提供貸款的基金出現虧損，或限制投資者提取資金。有銀行監管機構與金融界人士認為，這與2008年的景況相似。 ▍ 能源價格急升 另一個相似之處是能源價格上漲，而能源危機正是造成2008年金融海嘯的原因之一。2007年初，布蘭特原油每桶價格約為50美元，但年底已升至約100美元，翌年7月更升至147美元。而今年伊朗戰事爆發後，油價再次一度升穿每桶100美元。 ▍ 人工智能投資熱潮 報道指，投資在人工智能方面的資金，目前超過2兆美元，被科技界人士形容為「狂熱」。少數科技巨頭的估值被推高，包括微軟、Google母公司Alphabet、亞馬遜等。萬一相關企業出現大型拋售，就會影響企業和消費者的信心。 ▍ 現今世界應對金融危機的能力 2008年的危機發生時，各國領袖召開緊急會議，在會議中商討並定下解救銀行的措施。時任英國首相指出，國際合作對應對這場危機至關重要。但BBC分析指，如今大國之間充滿貿易、軍事等各方面的衝突，要合作應付一場金融危機，未必能像當年那麼容易。 不過，BBC亦引述專家指，現時銀行體系已比2008年的體系更能承受衝擊，因為銀行目前並非依賴借來的資金，有較充足的現金儲備，預計就算金融界出現波動，引致經濟衰退，也不會像2008年那麼嚴重。 (旁述由AI生成)

The crowd at Bloomfield Road Stadium chanted Simon Sadler ’s name, giving the financier a hero’s welcome. It was 2019, and Sadler had returned to his hometown in the UK, having recently rescued the local soccer club from financial ruin. The rise of Sadler’s hedge fund, Segantii Capital Management , had made him one of Asia’s most successful hedge fund managers. He was now the proud owner of Blackpool FC. But thousands of miles away in Hong Kong, storm clouds were gathering. Investigations into alleged insider-dealing were building momentum, centered on a $1.14 million series of trades in fashion retailer Esprit Holdings Ltd. The criminal case concerning those relatively small transactions ultimately brought an end to a multistrategy hedge fund that once boasted $6.2 billion in assets under management and became a go-to for global banks marketing big blocks of shares. It also derailed the career of Sadler, a hard-charging trader who rose from obscurity to generate a fortune of at least $360 million , according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. On May 4, the case will finally be argued in court. Sadler, Segantii and former trader Daniel La Rocca will stand trial in a criminal case that promises to shed light on the world of block trades — where bankers help their clients sell chunks of shares away from public exchanges. These deals, which tend to price at a discount to market levels, often hinge on sensitive negotiations between Wall Street bankers and potential buyers, including hedge funds.
