Chaikin Targets Move from Retail to Buy Side with Professional-Grade iPad App

Abstract

Chaikin Analytics, a provider of mobile applications for stock-picking and analysis founded by the former head of Instinet's research division Marc Chaikin, plans to broaden its appeal from retail investors to institutional buy-side firms, with the release of a new iPad analysis workstation last week, Chaikin Analytics for iPad. The vendor will market the app to buy-side firms as a standalone service, as well as via prime brokers, who will be able to integrate it into their own client-facing applications.
