Bathrobe investor

Guy who gets up about 11 and settles on the patio
overlooking the ocean, with his laptop, (in his terry-cloth robe). His 19-year-old assistant brings him a bloody Mary. He says "thanks" in a tone of benign

retail investor
by Alex Koik-Cestone on Aug 29, 2007 04:40:10
An
investor who trades shares on an exchange through a third party, typically a brokerage firm with direct access to the market(s) ECN networks. This term is often used in a derogatory sense to describe various middle-of-the-road people who attempt to amass great wealth with little to no research beforehand, often resulting in the complete loss of their "
invested" money.
Being a retail investor is not a sign of incompetence, however; there are many who are quite able and consistently beat
indices and funds with their returns.
Example:
Noob
trader: "Hey! This stock just fell 50%; there's gotta be a short
squeeze soon! I'm buying!"
Experienced trader: "Don't be a retail investor, man!"
Experienced retail investor: "
Bag holder would be a better phrase for that, buddy!"
