How is Jane Street so much better than everyone else?
Jane street made c. 40 billion in trading revenues last year. 16 billion more in Q1 ‘26. >30 billion more in Q2 ‘26 if recent reporting is to be believed. This is an order of magnitude more than most top competitors.
How is this possible? Based on their recent 15 billion situational awareness loss, do they have a beta-positive strategy now? How large does it have to be to generate these numbers in this market?
