The Rise of the Retail Equities Trader

October 19 at 2:00 pm PDT / 5:00 pm EDT

Zero-commission trading, fractional shares, and easy access to information have allowed individual (retail) investors to take more control over their trading activity. The recent trading frenzy in so-called meme stocks has highlighted the causes and effects of the increase in retail trading activity. This increase is, in turn, affecting the trading strategies of institutional investors and causing securities regulators to rethink existing market structure and market infrastructure policies.
