*clears throat,,,
The person in the photo is Peter Borish, a key figure in the Trader (1987) documentary about Paul Tudor Jones. At the time, Borish was PTJ’s right hand man, director of research,chief strategist, definitely not the floor trader blowing up accounts, but rather the one building detailed models and research to help PTJ anticipate market moves.
As of 2025, Peter Borish is alive and continues to be active in the financial sector, being the Chairman and CEO of Computer Trading Corporation (CTC)
He’s been involved with several firms , including the Quad Group, where he’s worked on trader development and he’s also dedicated a lot of time to economic advisory work and philanthropy, particularly in areas like education and poverty alleviation. 1 reply

I gathered info from different sources and this is what I discovered
The user’s description of the trader as a “floor trader, got rekt three times, lost it all, had to ask friends for money to trade it back” does not align with Paul Tudor Jones’s documented career. While early career challenges are noted, such as learning from losses and navigating market volatility during events like the Volcker Shock in the early 1980s, there is no evidence of him experiencing three significant blowouts or needing to borrow from friends to restart trading.
The person in the image is Paul Tudor Jones, identified through visible text and contextual clues from the documentary. Take a look at the image closely. He is alive as of May 17, 2025, and actively manages Tudor Investment Corporation, handling billions in assets, and is involved in philanthropy, notably through the Robin Hood Foundation, which he co-founded in 1988. 1 reply
