IceShark,

I looked on the NY Mag site but could not find it. It was the Jan 24 issue and there has been another issue out since. It does say he averaged three trades a minute over the past year and that he accounts for 0.05 percent of all NASDAQ trades on a typical day.

The best quote from him is that CSCO and INTC are bad stocks because "they don't move in spurts" they "have a lot of market makers and we can't manipulate them as much"

I did a search on dogpile and Kirk has apparently been written up before. An article back in April said he was up to $500,000 but he apparently had his best month in ever in November making $1.2 million.

I worked in the S&P Pit at the Chicago Merc a few years back and this just about tops anything I heard there. I doubt Kirk parties as hard as the Merc boyz though.
