Hawaii Disaster # HI-00005, 63818-63819 [E6-18295]

Download as PDF 63818 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 210 / Tuesday, October 31, 2006 / Notices cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES securities exchange.11 In particular, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,12 which requires, among other things, that the rules of a national securities exchange be designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, and to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism for a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest. The proposed rule change amends the Exchange’s existing generic listing standards pursuant to Rule 19b–4(e) under the Act 13 for ICUs to provide that an eligible index may be calculated following the ‘‘fundamentals weighted’’ or ‘‘fundamental index’’ methodology. This index calculation methodology weights components based on one or more of the following: sales, cash flow, book value, and dividends.14 Including this index calculation methodology in the Exchange’s generic listing standards will provide investors with more investment choices by offering an alternative to the other index methodologies, such as capitalizationweighted indexes. The Commission notes that the indexes that would be based on the fundamentals weighting methodology will already be subject to the requirements of the generic listing standards pursuant to Rule 19b–4(e) under the Act,15 including trading volume and liquidity requirements. In addition, by amending its generic listing standards pursuant to Rule 19b–4(e) under the Act,16 the Exchange should reduce the time frame for listing or trading ICUs that rely on an index utilizing a fundamentals weighting methodology. The proposed rule change should therefore facilitate the listing or trading of such securities and thereby reduce the burdens on issuers and other market participants. The Exchange has requested accelerated approval of the proposed rule change. The Commission finds good cause for approving the proposed 11 In approving this rule change, the Commission notes that it has considered the proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f). 12 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 13 17 CFR 240.19b–4(e). 14 According to the Exchange, in each instance, the index methodology will set forth the means of calculating sales, cash flow, book value, and dividends and thus will be transparent. 15 17 CFR 240.19b–4(e). 16 Id. VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:25 Oct 30, 2006 Jkt 211001 rule change prior to the 30th day after the date of publication of the notice of filing in the Federal Register. The Commission believes the proposed rule change should provide investors with an alternative to the current index calculation methodologies. The proposed rule change is substantially identical to that approved for another exchange.17 The Commission does not believe that the proposed rule change raises any novel regulatory issues. Therefore, the Commission finds good cause, consistent with Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,18 to approve the proposed rule change on an accelerated basis.19 V. Conclusion It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,20 that the proposed rule change (SR–NYSE–2006– 88) is approved on an accelerated basis. For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated authority.21 Nancy M. Morris, Secretary. [FR Doc.
