Trading and investment platform eToro is announcing the appointment of Bret Kenwell as Options Analyst.
Lule Demmissie, eToro’s U.S. CEO said:
“We are delighted to welcome Bret to the eToro team. He brings a wealth of experience in creating engaging and educational content for investors that will be extremely valuable to our audience. His unique professional experience, years working with options and personal drive makes him the perfect fit as we build out our talented analyst bench under Callie Cox’s leadership, our US Investment Analyst.”
Bret joins eToro from TheStreet where he “worked as a financial journalist. He covered a variety of beats including the auto sector, technology space, and most recently the technical setups for the U.S. indices and individual stocks.”
While there, he also “worked on newsletters, helping investors approach the market from a perspective that blended fundamental and technical analysis.”
Bret Kenwell, eToro’s Options Analyst said:
“I’m thrilled to be joining the eToro team here in the U.S. and am excited to bring my experience to this already incredible group. I look forward to contributing to the company’s goal of empowering retail investors, especially helping to make options investing more accessible to those previously shut out of the investing conversation.”
Prior to his time at TheStreet, Bret worked at Benzinga where he was “responsible for building out part of the company’s front-end premium product, while focusing on options flow, pricing and analysis.” He also held prominent positions “at InvestorPlace, Seeking Alpha and Capital Traders Group. Bret holds a Series 56 certification.”
As noted in the update, eToro is “the trading and investing platform that empowers you to invest, share and learn.”
They were founded in 2007 “with the vision of a world where everyone can trade and invest in a simple and transparent way.”
Today they have “over 32 million registered users from more than 100 countries. We believe there is power in shared knowledge and that we can become more successful by investing together.”
So they’ve created “a collaborative investment community designed to provide you with the tools you need to grow your knowledge and wealth.”
On eToro, you can hold “a range of traditional and innovative assets and choose how you invest: trade directly, invest in a portfolio, or copy other investors.”
