Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The text of those statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant parts of such statements. A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The Exchange proposes to amend the NYSE Trades market data feed product offering. NYSE Trades is an NYSE-only lastsale market data feed. NYSE Trades currently allows vendors, broker-dealers and others to make available on a realtime basis the same last sale information that the Exchange reports under the Consolidated Tape Association (‘‘CTA’’) Plan for inclusion in the CTA Plan’s consolidated data streams. Specifically, the NYSE Trades feed includes, for each security traded on the Exchange, the real-time last sale price, time and size information and bid/ask quotations and a stock summary message. The stock summary message updates every minute and includes NYSE’s opening price, high price, low price, closing price, and cumulative volume for the security.3 The Exchange has determined to modify the data content of NYSE Trades to remove the bid/ask data and to provide the individual orders that make up each reported trade. First, as noted above, the NYSE Trades data feed currently includes related bid/ask information at the time of each reported trade. The Exchange proposes to remove this limited bid/ask information from the NYSE Trades feed, thereby focusing the NYSE Trades feed on NYSE last sale information. This change would streamline the NYSE Trades content, as well as align NYSE Trades content with that of last sale data feeds offered by other exchanges.4 The 3 See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 62187 (May 27, 2010), 75 FR 31500 (June 3, 2010) (SR– NYSEAmex–2010–35), 70065 (July 30, 2013), 78 FR 47450 (Aug. 5, 2013) (SR–NYSEMKT–2013–64) and 69273 (April 2, 2013), 78 FR 20969 (April 8, 2013) (SR–NYSEMKT–2013–30). 4 See NASDAQ Rule 7039 (Nasdaq Last Sale) and BATS Rule 11.22(g) (BATS Last Sale). PO 00000 Frm 00091 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 NYSE BBO data feed includes, and would continue to include, the best bids and offers for all securities that are traded on the Exchange for which NYSE reports quotes under the Consolidated Quotation (‘‘CQ’’) Plan for inclusion in the CQ Plan’s consolidated quotation information data stream.5 Second, the Exchange currently reports to the CTA and distributes on a real-time basis via NYSE Trades the real-time NYSE last sale price information based on the completed trade of an arriving order. For example, if an arriving order of 1000 shares trades with five resting orders of 200 shares each, the Exchange reports a completed trade of 1000 shares. The Exchange proposes to distribute NYSE last sale information in NYSE Trades in a format that would be based on the individual resting orders that comprise the completed trade. In the example above, the Exchange would distribute via NYSE Trades the real-time NYSE last sale information of five executions of 200 shares each, with the same time stamp for each individual component of the trade. These five transactions would have the same time stamp and would comprise the same information that is being provided to the CTA regarding the completed trade, which would not change. The Exchange would continue to make NYSE last sale information available through NYSE Trades immediately after it provides last sale information to the processor under the CTA Plan. The Exchange expects to offer both the current NYSE Trades data product and the proposed NYSE Trades data product for a limited transition period. After the transition period, the Exchange would stop offering the current NYSE Trades data product and offer only the NYSE Trades data product proposed in this filing. The Exchange would announce the transition dates in advance. There would be no change to the fees for NYSE Trades in connection with the proposed changes. 2. Statutory Basis The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) 6 of the Act, in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) 7 of the Act, in particular, 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 5 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 72326 (June 5, 2014), 79 FR 33605 (June 11, 2014) (SR– NYSEMKT–2014–49). 6 15 U.S.C. 78f(b). 7 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
