Self-Regulatory Organizations; New

Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of
Proposed Rule Change To Amend Rule
7.37 To Specify the Exchange’s Source
of Data Feeds From the Long-Term
Stock Exchange, Inc.
April 8, 2020.
Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) 1 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
‘‘Act’’) 2 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,3
notice is hereby given that on April 6,
2020, New York Stock Exchange LLC
(‘‘NYSE’’ or the ‘‘Exchange’’) filed with
the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the
proposed rule change as described in
Items I, II, and III below, which Items
have been prepared by the selfregulatory organization. The
Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule
change from interested persons.
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to amend
Rule 7.37 to specify the Exchange’s
source of data feeds from the Long-Term
Stock Exchange, Inc. (‘‘LTSE’’) for
purposes of order handling, order
execution, order routing, and regulatory
compliance. The proposed rule change
is available on the Exchange’s website at
www.nyse.com, at the principal office of
the Exchange, and at the Commission’s
Public Reference Room.
II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s

A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to update and
amend the use of data feeds table in
Rule 7.37, which sets forth on a marketby-market basis the specific securities
information processor (‘‘SIP’’) and
proprietary data feeds that the Exchange
utilizes for the handling, execution, and
routing of orders, and for performing the
regulatory compliance checks related to
each of those functions. Specifically, the
Exchange proposes to amend the table
in Rule 7.37(e) to specify that, with
respect to the LTSE, the Exchange will
receive the SIP feed as its primary
source of data for order handling, order
execution, order routing, and regulatory
compliance. The Exchange will not have
a secondary source for data from LTSE.
The Exchange proposes that this
proposed rule change would be
operative on the day that LTSE launches
operations as an equities exchange,
which is currently scheduled for May
15, 2020.4
2. Statutory Basis
The proposed rule change is
consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act,5
in general, and furthers the objectives of
Section 6(b)(5),6 in particular, because 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. The Exchange believes
its proposal to amend the table in Rule
7.37(e) to include the data feed source
for the LTSE will ensure that Rule 7.37
correctly identifies and publicly states
on a market-by-market basis all of the
specific SIP and proprietary data feeds
that the Exchange utilizes for the
handling, execution, and routing of
orders, and for performing the
regulatory compliance checks for each
of those functions. The proposed rule
change also removes impediments to
and perfects the mechanism of a free
and open market and protects investors
4 On March 25, 2020, LTSE announced that it
would begin phasing in securities on its production
system on May 15, 2020. See LTSE Market

and the public interest by providing
additional specificity, clarity, and
transparency in the Exchange’s rules.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that
the proposed rule change will impose
any burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. The
proposed change is not designed to
address any competitive issue, but
rather would provide the public and
market participants with up-to-date
information about the data feeds the
Exchange will use for the handling,
execution, and routing of orders, as well
as for regulatory compliance.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
No written comments were solicited
or received with respect to the proposed
rule change.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The Exchange has filed the proposed
rule change pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act 7 and Rule
19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.8 Because the
proposed rule change does not: (i)
Significantly affect the protection of
investors or the public interest; (ii)
impose any significant burden on
competition; and (iii) become operative
prior to 30 days from the date on which
it was filed, or such shorter time as the
Commission may designate, if
consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest, the
proposed rule change has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)
of the Act and Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii)
thereunder.9
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of such proposed rule change, the
Commission summarily may
temporarily suspend such rule change if
it appears to the Commission that such
action is necessary or appropriate in the
public interest, for the protection of
investors, or otherwise in furtherance of
the purposes of the Act. If the
Commission takes such action, the
7 15
U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6).
9 Id. In addition, Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) requires a
self-regulatory organization to give the Commission
written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule
change, along with a brief description and text of
the proposed rule change, at least five business days
prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the
Commission. The Exchange has satisfied this
requirement.
