The Weiss Investor


Nov 4, 2021

In today's episode of The Weiss Investor, Kenny catches up with Bob McCooey, a former brother-in-arms on the NYSE floor who now heads NASDAQ Asia Pacific. The two dive into life as "two-dollar brokers," independent traders at the smaller family-owned firms who took on the big banks to protect their clients' investments. Their discussion ranges from specialist units to the first generation of computer terminals to the nitty-gritty of buying and leasing one of the 1,366 available seats. No details are spared from these legends of financial history! Plus: Kenny talks about how his wife helped shatter the glass ceiling as one of the first women in trading.
