Stocks & Commodities Editor Jayanthi Gopalakrishnan spoke with Huzefa Hamid on April 11, 2013, via Skype.
Huzefa, tell us a little bit about yourself and how you got interested in the financial markets.
I was 16 years old, in high school, living in England, and I had just got my first Internet connection. It was an AOL dial-up connection. Every day when I would connect to the Internet, one of the welcome pages showed the stocks that moved the most that day on the London Stock Exchange. I would watch the prices go up and down. It was just raw numbers at the time. There were companies such as Marks & Spencer on the British exchange, and I thought, Wow, all I have to do is buy this in the morning and sell it in the evening and I wouldve made a lot of money. It was a simplistic and naive view of how the markets operated, but that is what initially got me interested in the markets.
After that I started to pay attention to the markets in the newspapers and started reading the financial pages. We have a fabulous weekly journal called Investors Chronicle in the UK and I would purchase that. With only my savings from the first few parttime jobs I had while I was at school, I opened my first brokerage account. One of my first trades was Manchester United. My trading started because of a personal interest in the equity markets. Back then, in the 90s, the markets were really booming, and the brokers in the industry became deregulated.
Were you working for a trading firm?
No, I wasnt with a trading firm. I studied business at university and I was working for, initially, Deloitte, and then a few other financial services firms. I was in pensions and actuarialrelated roles, and it didnt have anything to do with the financial markets. It was completely divorced from trading. My trading has always been a personal interest.
