British billionaire Joe Lewis pardoned by Trump for insider trading

British billionaire Joe Lewis, whose family trust owns the Tottenham Hotspur soccer club, was pardoned by President Donald Trump more than a year after he was fined $5 million after pleading guilty to insider trading and conspiracy charges in New York, authorities said Thursday. Lewis, 88, had requested a pardon so he could receive medical treatment and visit his grandchildren and great grandchildren in the United States, according to a White House official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a pardon that has not been officially announced. Lewis pleaded guilty in January 2024, saying he knew that sharing nonpublic information, which he had learned from corporate boardrooms about publicly traded companies, with others who then bought stock in those companies was wrong. At the time of the plea, he was free on $300 million bail. According to prosecutors and an indictment, Lewis shared the secrets with friends, employees and romantic interests from 2019 to 2021, urging them

Retail trading at risk if proprietary giants like Jane St exit: Zerodha CEO

Zerodha founder and CEO Nithin Kamath has cautioned that retail trading activity could be impacted if proprietary trading firms like Jane Street, which contribute nearly 50 per cent of options trading volumes, scale back their participation in the market. This development could have negative implications for both exchanges and brokers, he added. "Prop trading firms like Jane Street account for nearly 50% of options trading volumes. If they pull back which seems likely retail activity (~35%) could take a hit too. So this could be bad news for both exchanges and brokers," Kamath said on X. "The next few days will be telling. F&O volumes might reveal just how reliant we are on these prop giants," he added. In an order released in the early hours of Friday, the market regulator found Jane Street (JS), a New York-based hedge fund, guilty of manipulating the indices by taking bets in the cash, and, futures and options markets simultaneously for making handsome gains.
