Due to a sharp increase in trading income, Castle Securities Company's profits soared by 70%.

Castle Securities' profits in the first quarter of this year surged by nearly 70% to $1.7 billion, as the increased volatility in the financial markets since Trump took office benefitted this high-speed trading company. A document shows that the company reported a net trading income of $3.4 billion for the first three months of 2025, a 45% year-on-year increase. Both the revenue and profits of this market maker have reached record levels. The trading frenzy at Castle Securities, founded by billionaire Ken Griffin, reflects the financial market turmoil sparked by a series of executive orders signed by Trump after he took office on January 20th.
