II. 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
