However I feel now that the time is right for me to hang up my boots and make plans for my retirement from the world of commodities trading.”

“Over the years we have shared many experiences together, through good times and bad. In the long time I have spent in the commodities trading profession I can proudly say that working at Sinclair Capital Management has been the pinnacle of my career. Together we have built and developed Sinclair Capital Management from being a small brokerage firm and turned the company into something really special, a company with an outstanding group of highly professional traders and a global network of clients. I have made many great friends here at Sinclair Capital Management and I wish the company all the success and recognition it deserves.
