## Resource

Azora Capital just piled into Virtu Financial, buying over 1.8 million shares worth $73 million—making up more than 5% of its U.S. equity portfolio. With Virtu reporting a 31% revenue jump and 83% net income surge in Q1, Azora’s move signals confidence in the firm’s ability to thrive amid market volatility. Despite recent gains, Azora sees untapped potential in Virtu’s core liquidity and trading services, backed by a new quarterly dividend. This isn’t a short-term play—it’s a long-term bet on Virtu’s resilience across market cycles. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
