Stochastic Kernel Estimation?

I ran into a friend who said he interviewed with a fairly successful  
investment company.  They told him they were using stochastic kernel  
estimation to forecast prices of stocks.  ( There is a good chance they  
could be lying. )

This peaked my interest, and I would like to know if any one out there  
knows more about this methodology.  I understand using the kernel function  
to smooth a series as part of the cubic spline method.  Is there something  
more to this?

cheers,

joe.
