Career

In 1999 Gentile founded Speedtrader, currently owned by Stock USA Investments, Inc,[1] (formerly Speed Trader, Inc,). Then in 2011 Gentile founded SureTrader, a division of Swiss Americas Securities, Ltd.[2] In less than a year in operation, SureTrader reported more than 100,000 equity transactions daily.[3] Its success prompted a major expansion[4] to meet scaling demands, and the firm set out to increase staff by two hundred percent during March 2012.[5] By 2012 both SureTrader and SpeedTrader were ranked among [6] Barron's top online brokers.

In May 2012, as Suretrader reported averaging 30,000 transactions daily,[7] Gentile then broke ground on Sur Club,[8] 1.2 million-dollar sushi restaurant offering both a club and dining experience. It received more than 500 advance applications for its opening night.[9]

Gentile has also appeared in Bloomberg.[10]
