Washington, Apr 15: The hormone – testosterone – that drives male aggression and sexual interest might also help city traders make moolah, that’ s what a group of researchers suggest.

Testosterone is a steroid hormone, which controls competitive encounters as well as sexual behaviour. Testosterone in male athletes, for example, will rise prior to a competition and rise even further in a winning athlete (but decrease in a losing one).
