Lawyers also revealed that the trade earned Jane Street $1 billion last year and was on pace to earn even more for the firm this year. Jane Street worried about extinguishing the trade's viability, Brown said, intentionally leaving short-term profits on the table to maintain its long-term viability. But the company's profits from the strategy plummeted in the month after the traders joined Millennium, Jane Street says, falling 50% in March. Engelmayer denied the temporary restraining order, saying Jane Street did not establish irreparable harm. Jane Street may believe irreversible harm has already taken place, given its desire to keep details of the trade secret, including the country it operates in.

A onetime commodities backwater, congestion trading has become a growing business in recent years as the demand for electricity and volatility on the power grid in the US has soared. The financial category, which includes specialized power-trading companies, banks, hedge funds, and large proprietary trading firms, dominates the market, in part because the physical power firms typically operate in only one or two regions. He launched three congestion trading teams for the firm, including in California and Texas after those states introduced congestion trading in 2008 and 2010, respectively. Citadel, along with Susquehanna International Group and Tower Research, has been involved in FTR trading since the market's infancy. Volatility has been increasing on the power grid, in part because of changing weather patterns, Jeev added.

His new position through the internal shuffle has vaulted him more publicly and prominently into the most closely watched succession race on Wall Street. JPMorgan executive David Hudson told the publication that he returned to JPMorgan after working at Nomura in 2010 "to work for Troy." Rohrbaugh's other stops at JPMorgan have been head of global markets and head of macro markets. A senior JPMorgan executive who works with Rohrbaugh recalled that time during the pandemic.

Last year, banks opened 2023 by forecasting layoffs, including for the investment bankers who suddenly had nothing to do following the pandemic-era M&A and IPO boom. Citigroup kicked off 2024 ominously, warning that it will lay off as many as 20,000 employees by 2026. The bank expects 2024 expenses to increase further to total $90 billion, up $2.8 billion from 2023, and much of that will be focused on hiring. CFO Barnum on Friday said the bank is gearing up for a "rebound in the investment banking wallet."

The update, according to two people with knowledge of the talks, was that there is no update — at least about the much-ballyhooed tie-up between Schonfeld and its much larger rival, $60 billion Millennium Management. Whether investors will pull a significant chunk of capital or stand by the firm won't crystallize until 5 p.m. Thursday. Schonfeld, whose assets stood at $11.7 billion in October, has experienced two years of lackluster returns following a period of rapid expansion. Schonfeld management was courting several institutional investors, and in early October, the Financial Times reported that Millennium threw its hat in the ring. In the event of some form of tie-up with Millennium, there would be redundancies, especially in corporate and back-office roles.

The $5 billion fund, based in Berkeley, California, has long imposed one of the industry's harshest noncompetition agreements despite California lawmakers' efforts to eliminate the practice. Insider last week reported on Voleon's noncompete policies, which the company has at times tried to enforce using intimidation and legal threats, ex-employees told Insider. "I don't know anyone who hasn't signed," a former employee previously told Insider, adding that Voleon managers encouraged employees to sign the agreement.

The message was that a tie-up with Millennium was a 50-50 proposition and that any agreement would be contingent on Schonfeld remaining independent. Other strategic investors in the mix include Blackstone, GIC, and Future Fund, an Australian sovereign wealth vehicle that's already a significant Schonfeld investor. Schonfeld's assets have dipped this year amid meager returns, and the fund has cut costs and slowed hiring in recent months. But fundraising from cautious institutional investors is time-consuming, and Millennium chief trading officer Mark Meskin contacted Schonfeld's leadership to discuss a potential tie-up, sources say. Schonfeld, industry sources say, was likely under pressure from existing investors, who have had to bear a higher brunt of the fees following redemptions.
