AN INTERESTING POSITIONI was curious as to who 110 was this morning as far as a broker as they seem to be picking up an upscaled position and I didn't recognize their broker # as I have never seen it before.
It turns out to be Jacobs Securities. An interesting company involved with renewable power and energy and the below link shows some interesting facts. Jacobs Securities are exclusive advisors to the likes of ENWISE.
There are many other interesting names as well on their website. Good to know we are drawing the attention of some bigger hands. We are getting closer by the hour, I would say, to a larger picture developing.

Jacob Securities, founded last year (2008), focuses on the renewable power and energy sector. The dealers just got its broker number from the Toronto Stock Exchange. (Sept. 2009)
Now, for those who work on the Street, broker numbers actually matter. Trading types will use them as shorthand: If someone on a desk asks who crossed that big block of Barrick?, the reply might be “number two, meaning RBC Dominion, or number seven, for TD Securities.
Jacob Securities got number 110 from the TSX - as in, 110 volts. Which is a neat bit of branding for a dealer that’s involved in power.
On the recruitment front, Jacob Securities welcomed Brad Parkes as its new head of sales and trading. His last position was as head of trading at CIBC World Markets, where he spent 16 years.
