Am I the only one who feels like I accomplished something by charging my Oura ring? ⭕️

We will embrace AI in almost everything we do at @Jefferies, but our world will revolve around people. $JEF "Clearly there is endless potential in the constantly evolving and breathtaking advances of artificial intelligence. Many of us, as well as Jefferies overall, are embracing these advances with purpose and excitement, and are already seeing how this technology can make us better at what we do and in how we live. That said, there is an uncomfortable feeling many are experiencing that knowledge workers will now be replaced by technology that is smarter, faster, more accurate and indefatigable than any of us.” Read the full letter here bit.ly/4bhQUcM

@BillAckman @DrEliDavid Who was the hungry junior retail stock broker who gave you the idea? 📈

@DrEliDavid Don’t forget the move in the currency! I am a U.S. dollar investor.

Three months after the October 7 massacre, @BillAckman bought 5% of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. Since then, he has seen a massive 8x return on his investment. Never bet against Israel 🇮🇱 _

@ScottWapnerCNBC @Gord2100 @HalftimeReport So he’s saying he was so captivated by the first half that he was paralyzed by half time?!

@Gord2100 @HalftimeReport What else did you like about the show?

,@HalftimeReport - As a long-time viewer, I just wanted to say that I found the second half of today’s show a complete waste of my time. @ScottWapnerCNBC

Our @Jefferies 2025 Annual Shareholder Letter hot off the press.... "With apologies to Charles Dickens, 2025 was neither the best of times, nor the worst of times, but it was, indeed, a tale of two halves. The first half was downright mediocre, as our heightened expectations for increased capital formation and strategic transactions failed to materialize due to a “complex” environment. The second half, while not yet “great,” saw the macro and regulatory environment calm, which paved the way for what we believe may have been the true beginning of a long overdue period of constructive strategic activity and new issuance in the capital markets."

@jawwwn_ Other bankers don’t like me either, perhaps for dif reasons. Maybe we should hang sometime? 😄

Palantir CEO Alex Karp: “We couldn’t get bankers to underwrite Palantir.” “They were like— you’re not going to make any money and we sure as hell aren’t gonna make money. “Honestly, they still hate us. I can’t find a banker that likes me. I’m like— could you look at my bank account? None of them will meet with me even today. This is not hyperbolic.”

@VegasMikeL @Jefferies Too nice. 🙏🏼❤️

@HandlerRich @Jefferies It’s been a long time without any tweets — come back to X, Richard! And congratulations, master of strategic partnerships, on your expanding relationship with Hildene Holding Company!

In a year of complexity and change, @Jefferies remains anchored by our core principles. $JEF #ClientsFirstAlways "Whether you are managing capital, running a company for stakeholders in an ever more complex operating environment, or striving for decades to keep building the best global full-service investment banking firm, we believe it is critical to reflect on the guiding principles and foundational goals that you believe are your true competitive long-term advantages."

If you ever wondered why finance matters, Doug Phillips managed the @UofR endowment for 25 years and he and his team consistently outperformed which resulted in billions of extra dollars going to our Hospital , the Rochester community, scholarships, professorships, and all the other important work that great Universities do! #meliora 🐝

@DanielSLoeb1 @GavinSBaker Ok, I went by height.

@HandlerRich @GavinSBaker Nice save. Actually Paul spoke before me.

I’ll have to work harder for top billing next year. Always a pleasure to share a stage with @GavinSBaker and my old boss @HandlerRich. So great to be with the resilient tech and investment community as well as so many friends.

@GavinSBaker @Jefferies @BillAckman @DanielSLoeb1 @generalcatalyst Spicy! 🌶️😁

@HandlerRich @Jefferies @BillAckman @DanielSLoeb1 @generalcatalyst Thank you for having me and honored to be in such august company. Incredible conference and I will always think of your Margarita story when decisiveness is needed.

If you were in Israel this week at @Jefferies TechTrek, you got to meet the most incredible local entrepreneurs and learn from the wisdom of @BillAckman, @DanielSLoeb1, @GavinSBaker, Paul Singer and David Fialkow! 🇮🇱💙🤍

@BushwoodCap @Jefferies @BillAckman @DanielSLoeb1 @GavinSBaker @generalcatalyst Sorry, was just live for folks there.

@HandlerRich @Jefferies @BillAckman @DanielSLoeb1 @GavinSBaker @generalcatalyst Any of these sessions available to watch/listen online?

Note to Team @Jefferies explain the markets are ready to go and so are we! $JEF "After an uncertain and somewhat frustrating fiscal first half of 2025 for all of us, the capital markets seem to have regained their footing, with activity progressively increasing starting in June. Our frustration was clearly exacerbated by the high level of optimism and great expectations that permeated our industry as we entered 2025." Read the full note here bit.ly/41vBKeJ

@MarketsWithMB Morris spinning hits from heaven looking down on all of us w his wry smile. ❤️

@DanielSLoeb1 💪🏼💪🏼

Excited to announce: Third Point builds out private credit expansion with insurance fund pionline.com/alternative-in…

Grateful to host leaders of Italy’s business community last night at Villa Taverna with @Jefferies CEO @HandlerRich. Strengthening U.S.-Italy commercial ties and supporting investment through @SelectUSA are top priorities as we work to grow trade and promote American prosperity.

Frank Baxter hired an inexperienced and overconfident 28 year old punk in 1990 and allowed another 35 special people from post-bankruptcy Drexel to join his fine firm called @Jefferies. We lost Frank today, but I will be forever grateful for the opportunity he gave me that changed my life forever. His remarkable legacy will live on through all of us at Jefferies, his wonderful family, and all of the countless people his heart touched throughout his impactful and important life. ❤️
