retail investor
an investor who trades shares on an exchange through a third party, typically a brokerage firm with direct access to the market(s) ecn networks. this term is often used in a derogatory sense to describe various middle-of-the-road people who attempt to am-ss great wealth with little to no research beforehand, often resulting in the complete loss of their “invested” money.
being a retail investor is not a sign of incompetence, however; there are many who are quite able and consistently beat indices and funds with their returns.
noob trader: “hey! this stock just fell 50%; there’s gotta be a short squeeze soon! i’m buying!”
experienced trader: “don’t be a retail investor, man!”
experienced retail investor: “bag holder would be a better phrase for that, buddy!”
