Spear, Leeds & Kellogg
 PROFILE
Spear, Leeds & Kellogg is one of the top specialists (or market makers) on the NYSE and AMEX exchanges, where it deals in more than 400 and 200 listed stocks, respectively. A unit of The Goldman Sachs Group, the firm lines up buyers and sellers of stock at fixed prices (a process called "making a market") and buys or sells stocks itself to offset wide price fluctuations. Its SLK Capital Markets division maintains markets for some 7,000 Nasdaq and smaller Bulletin Board stocks. The company is an investor in REDIBook, a leading electronic communication network (ECN), which provides fast trade execution over the Internet. Harold Spear and Lawrence Leeds founded the firm in 1931; James Kellogg joined in 1945.
