| Hiya gang. Robinhood, one of the biggest beneficiaries of the boom in retail trading in recent months, revealed data for the first time on its daily average revenue trades (DARTs) on Monday. The startup's June DARTs totaled 4.31 million, beating out incumbent brokerages TD Ameritrade (3.84 million), Interactive Brokers (1.86 million), Charles Schwab (1.8 million), and E-Trade (1.1 million), as first reported by Bloomberg. But as one door opens another closes. The $8.6 billion startup is no longer allowing third parties to track its trading data. Robinhood users will have to resort back to trolling r/WallStreetBets for investing ideas, I suppose.

However, as written by yours truly, TD Ameritrade is taking a unique approach backing startups with business cases entirely separate from the brokerage giant via its incubator, Discotech. No word yet on if dancing is mandatory for all founders.
