托福阅读素材:华尔街金融人士内心的那些痛

2015-04-20 15:09:55来源:网络

  The ones that survived that round may not survive this one, especially since the word among hedge fund head hunters is that a lot of traders that made the transition from banks to hedge funds aren't working out. They don't always grasp the way hedge funds handle risk or manage portfolios. With hedge fund performance down like it is now, they'll be the first to go.

  能够在基金行业做的很好的交易员不一定能够在对冲基金行业做的很好,主要是因为对冲基金的猎头注意到很多交易员不能够有效的将自己的工作角色由银行工作转换到对冲基金工作上面。他们不能够游刃有余的利用对冲基金处理危险或者证券投资组合的方法。由于他们在对冲基金行业的业绩低下,他们可能会是第一个被辞退的人。

  "Unfortunately there's no simple answer," said Adam Grealish, founder of RoleTroll, a startup that uses algorithms to find jobs for financial professionals. Grealish himself was a quant trader that got let go in the 2010 deluge. That's when he started building the technology behind RoleTroll.

  RoleTroll公司采用数学规则来帮助金融专业人员找到工作。 它的创始人Adam Grealish说:“不幸的是这个问题没有简单的答案”。Grealish曾经是一个定量交易员,在2010年的失业大潮中失业了。正是那时他开始建立RoleTroll所需要的技术。

  It helped him get a job at Goldman in a few months, so he put the project on the back burner. He realized, though, that in this market, it's too good a project to pass up. He designed his product to be something Wall Streeters could set and forget. Upload your resume and the program does the rest.

  几个月后,他在Goldman公司得到了一份工作,因而他把这个项目放在次要地位。尽管他意识到,在这个领域内这是一个前景很好的项目。他把产品设计成华尔街人可以利用和遗忘的东西。上传你的简历,然后这个项目完成剩余工作。

  It's especially great for the traders that see the axe before it falls, and are looking for somewhere to land.

  这尤其适合于那些发现自己即将被裁掉并且希望找到新工作的交易员。

  "You're generally out 1,2,3 times a week with clients," Grealish explained. "You don't have a lot of time for yourself and when you do have that time you're relaxing."

  Grealish解释说:“通常一周内你会跟客户出去1-3次,你自己没有很多时间,并且你有时间时你也想放松一下。”

  It's important to add that technology also plays a role here too. All trading is going electronic. It happened first in the stock market, and now it's happening in the bond market — the last holdouts still talking on their squawk boxes.

  有必要补充一下,技术同样起着重要的作用。所有的交易都是通过电子的形式进行的。他最早应用在股票市场,现在也应用在了证券市场-一些坚持者仍然通过对讲机进行交流。

  "I've had people cry to me, and it's difficult to hear and I went through in myself," said Michael Freeburg, a former floor trader who started his own wealth management firm, Greenwich Wealth Management LLC, 13 years ago. "I'm glad I did it before the financial crisis.... Right now I wouldn't want to be doing it in my 50s.

  前任场内交易员Michael Freeburg说:“很多人向我哭诉,我很难听清楚,然后我自己进行了调查”“我很开心在经济危机前做了这件事…我不想在我50岁的时候再做这件事”。13年前他开始经营自己的财富管理公司,Greenwich财富管理LLC。

  Freeburg left The Street as electronic trading started to take hold. These days — and in the last 4 years — he's getting a lot of calls from people he knew from the floor.

  在电子商务开始占领市场时,Freeburg离开了华尔街。这些天-并且在以后的4年-他接到了很多他以前做场内交易时认识的人的电话。

  "The fact is, not too many people care about fat cat Wall Streeters losing their jobs and not being able to a make a million bucks or whatever," said Freeburg, "but they're real people and it's real pain and effects their families and it's painful to watch and hear."

  Freeburg说:“实际上,很少有人关心有钱有势的华尔街人失去他们的工作,或是不能够得到$1,000,000的投资,亦或是其他的什么”。“但是他们是人,这些真实的痛苦会影响他们的家人,并且看到和听到这些是很痛苦的”。
