Discussion and Commission’s Findings After careful review, the Commission finds that the Exchange’s proposal to list and trade the Shares is consistent with the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities exchange.11 In particular, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,12 in that it is 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, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest. NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) permits the Exchange to consider qualifying Units for listing and trading pursuant to Rule 19b–4(e) under the Act. Commentary .01(a)(A) of Rule 5.2(j)(3) sets forth the generic listing requirements applicable to Units based on U.S. indexes or portfolios.13 These generic listing standards are designed to ensure that the securities composing the indexes and portfolios underlying the Units are well capitalized and actively 10 See also Notice, supra, note 3. approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has considered the proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation.

The Shares currently satisfy all but two of the generic listing standards under the rule, and the Commission believes that the composition of the Index, despite failing to satisfy the requirements of Commentaries .01(a)(A)(1) and .01(a)(A)(5) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), does not raise any regulatory concerns. The capitalization criterion of Commentary .01(a)(A)(1), together with the liquidity requirement applicable to the Index components, are designed to prevent fraudulent or manipulative acts.16 The Commission believes that the Index should not be susceptible to manipulation in light of the characteristics of the Index components when viewed as a whole. The generic listing requirement that all securities in the Index be NMS Stocks is designed to ensure that listed Units are not used as surrogates for trading in unregistered securities.17 The Commission believes that the Shares will not serve this function because non-NMS stocks account for only approximately 3.7% of the Index weight. In addition, the Commission notes that it has not received any comments regarding the proposed rule change. IV. Conclusion For the forgoing reasons, the Commission believes that the Exchange’s proposal to list and trade the Shares is consistent with the Act. This order is based on the Exchange’s representations.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-62737; File No. SR-NYSEArca-2010-64]


Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE Arca, Inc.; Order Approving 
Proposed Rule Change Relating to Listing of the Wilshire Micro-Cap ETF

August 17, 2010.

I. Introduction

    On July 1, 2010, NYSE Arca, Inc. (``Exchange'' or ``NYSE Arca'') 
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') 
pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to 
list and trade shares (``Shares'') of the Wilshire Micro-Cap ETF. The 
proposed rule change was published for comment in the Federal Register 
on July 15, 2010.\3\ The Commission received no comment letters on the 
proposed rule change. This order approves the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 62471 (July 8, 
2010), 75 FR 41252 (``Notice'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to list and trade the Shares of the Wilshire 
Micro-Cap ETF (the ``Fund'') \4\ under NYSE Arca Equities Rule 
5.2(j)(3), the Exchange's listing standards for Investment Company 
Units (``Units'').\5\ The Fund is a series of the Claymore Exchange-
Traded Fund Trust.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See the Claymore Exchange-Traded Fund Trust's registration 
statement on Form N-1A, dated May 18, 2010 (File Nos. 333-134551; 
811-21906) (``Registration Statement'').
    \5\ An Investment Company Unit is a security that represents an 
interest in a registered investment company that holds securities 
comprising, or otherwise based on or representing an interest in, an 
index or portfolio of securities (or holds securities in another 
registered investment company that holds securities comprising, or 
otherwise based on or representing an interest in, an index or 
portfolio of securities). See NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3)(A).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Fund seeks investment results that correspond generally to the 
performance, before fees and expenses, of the Wilshire US Micro-Cap 
Index \SM\ (``Index''). The Index is designed to represent micro-sized 
companies and is a subset of the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index\SM\ 
(the ``Wilshire 5000''). The Index represents a float-adjusted, market 
capitalization-weighted index of the issues ranked below 2500 by market 
capitalization of the Wilshire 5000. As of March 31, 2010, the Index 
was comprised of approximately 1,564 securities of micro-capitalization 
companies.
    The Exchange represents that: (i) Except for Commentaries 
.01(a)(A)(1) \6\ and .01(a)(A)(5) \7\ to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 
5.2(j)(3), the Shares of the Fund currently satisfy all of the other 
generic listing standards under NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3); (ii) 
the continued listing standards under NYSE Arca Equities Rules 
5.2(j)(3) and 5.5(g)(2) applicable to Units shall apply to the Shares; 
and (iii) the Trust is required to comply with Rule 10A-3 \8\ under the 
Act for the initial and continued listing of the Shares. Additionally, 
the Exchange represents that the Shares will comply with all other 
requirements applicable to Units including, but not limited to, 
requirements relating to the dissemination of key information such as 
the value of the Index and Intraday Indicative Value, rules governing 
the trading of equity securities, trading hours, trading halts, 
surveillance, and Information Bulletin to ETP Holders, as set forth in 
Exchange rules applicable to Units and prior Commission orders 
approving the generic listing rules applicable to the listing and 
trading of Units.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Commentary .01(a)(A)(1) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) 
provides that component stocks (excluding Units and securities 
defined in Section 2 of NYSE Arca Equities Rule 8, collectively, 
``Derivative Securities Products'') that in the aggregate account 
for at least 90% of the weight of the index or portfolio (excluding 
such Derivative Securities Products) each shall have a minimum 
market value of at least $75 million. The Exchange has represented 
that, as of April 21, 2010, 76.93% of the weight of the Index 
components had a market capitalization greater than $75 million.
    \7\ Commentary .01(a)(A)(5) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) 
provides that all securities in the index or portfolio shall be US 
Component Stocks listed on a national securities exchange and shall 
be NMS Stocks as defined in Rule 600 of Regulation NMS under the 
Act. The Exchange has represented that, as of April 21, 2010, 201 of 
approximately 1,564 components in the Index, accounting for 
approximately 12.8% of the total stocks in the Index and 
approximately 3.7% of the Index weight, were non-NMS stocks that 
trade either on the OTC Bulletin Board or the Pink OTC Markets.
    \8\ 17 CFR 240.10A-3.
    \9\ See, e.g., Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 44551 (July 
12, 2001), 66 FR 37716 (July 19, 2001) (SR-PCX-2001-14) (order 
approving generic listing standards for Units and Portfolio 
Depositary Receipts); and 41983 (October 6, 1999), 64 FR 56008

and trading of Units).

    Detailed descriptions of the Fund, the Index, procedures for 
creating and redeeming Shares, transaction fees and expenses, 
dividends, distributions, taxes, risks, and reports to be distributed 
to beneficial owners of the Shares can be found in the Registration 
Statement or on the Web site for the Fund (https://www.claymore.com), as 
applicable.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See also Notice, supra, note 3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. Discussion and Commission's Findings

    After careful review, the Commission finds that the Exchange's 
proposal to list and trade the Shares is consistent with the Act and 
the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to a national 
securities exchange.\11\ In particular, the Commission finds that the 
proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\12\ 
in that it is 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, to remove impediments to and perfect the 
mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and, 
in general, to protect investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission 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).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) permits the Exchange to consider 
qualifying Units for listing and trading pursuant to Rule 19b-4(e) 
under the Act. Commentary .01(a)(A) of Rule 5.2(j)(3) sets forth the 
generic listing requirements applicable to Units based on U.S. indexes 
or portfolios.\13\ These generic listing standards are designed to 
ensure that the securities composing the indexes and portfolios 
underlying the Units are well capitalized and actively traded, and 
serve to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts.\14\ As discussed 
above, the Shares do not qualify for generic listing under the 
Exchange's rule because the Index does not meet the criteria set forth 
in Commentaries .01(a)(A)(1) and .01(a)(A)(5) of NYSE Arca Equities 
Rule 5.2(j)(3) applicable to Units based on U.S. indexes or 
portfolios.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ In addition to the requirements set forth in Commentaries 
.01(a)(A)(1) and .01(a)(A)(5) discussed above, Rule 5.2(j)(3) also 
provides, among other things, that (i) the component stocks 
(excluding Derivative Securities Products) representing at least 70% 
of the weight of the index or portfolio (excluding such Derivative 
Securities Products) must have a minimum monthly trading volume 
during each of the last six months of at least 250,000 shares, or 
minimum notional monthly trading volume of $25 million, (ii) the 
most heavily weighted component stock (excluding Derivative 
Securities Products) in an underlying index or portfolio cannot 
exceed 30% of the weight of the index or portfolio, and the five 
most heavily weighted component stocks (excluding Derivative 
Securities Products) cannot together exceed 65% of the weight of the 
index or portfolio, and (iii) the index or portfolio must include a 
minimum of 13 stocks. See Commentaries .01(a)(A)(2), .01(a)(A)(3) 
and .01(a)(A)(4) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3).
    \14\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 44551 (July 12, 
2001), 66 FR 37716 (July 19, 2001) (SR-PCX-2001-14).
    \15\ See notes 6 and 7, supra.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission believes that the listing and trading of the Shares 
is consistent with the Act. The Shares currently satisfy all but two of 
the generic listing standards under the rule, and the Commission 
believes that the composition of the Index, despite failing to satisfy 
the requirements of Commentaries .01(a)(A)(1) and .01(a)(A)(5) to NYSE 
Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), does not raise any regulatory concerns. 
The capitalization criterion of Commentary .01(a)(A)(1), together with 
the liquidity requirement applicable to the Index components, are 
designed to prevent fraudulent or manipulative acts.\16\ The Commission 
believes that the Index should not be susceptible to manipulation in 
light of the characteristics of the Index components when viewed as a 
whole. The generic listing requirement that all securities in the Index 
be NMS Stocks is designed to ensure that listed Units are not used as 
surrogates for trading in unregistered securities.\17\ The Commission 
believes that the Shares will not serve this function because non-NMS 
stocks account for only approximately 3.7% of the Index weight.

2007), 72 FR 19571, 19576 (April 18, 2007) (SR-NYSEArca-2006-86).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, the Commission notes that it has not received any 
comments regarding the proposed rule change.

IV. Conclusion

    For the forgoing reasons, the Commission believes that the 
Exchange's proposal to list and trade the Shares is consistent with the 
Act. This order is based on the Exchange's representations.
    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the 
Act,\18\ that the proposed rule change (SR-NYSEArca-2010-64) be, and it 
hereby is, approved.
