Virtu Financial (VIRT) is one of our Financials team's favorite short ideas. On Wednesday, Hedgeye CEO Keith McCullough issued a "sell signal" to Real-Time Alerts subscribers on the company. "Do you want to be short of The Old Wall? Oh do we have a selling opportunity for you," McCullough wrote about Virtu.
Here's some insight from our Financials analyst Jonathan Casteleyn:
