Barron’s has an article today suggesting that Interactive Brokers (IBKR) will prosper in today’s low volatility market but really thrive when normal volatility returns.
They also suggest that IBKR is getting ready to challenge the banking industry the same way they have disrupted brokerages.
This isn’t a stock that meets all the rules I have set for an investment but I do like companies run by entrepreneur/founders and Thomas Petterffy has certainly earned my respect. It closed at 49.39 Friday and there is often a pop the Monday after a Barron’s mention.
I don’t expect I’ll actually invest anytime soon but have added this to my watch list. Really just leaving a mark of the price when the idea came to my attention.
