Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 199 / Monday, October 17, 2022 / Notices
Based on publicly available information,
no single equities exchange has more
than 19% of the market share.18
Therefore, no exchange possesses
significant pricing power in the
execution of order flow. Indeed,
participants can readily choose to send
their orders to other exchange and offexchange venues if they deem fee levels
at those other venues to be more
favorable. Moreover, the Commission
has repeatedly expressed its preference
for competition over regulatory
intervention in determining prices,
products, and services in the securities
markets. Specifically, in Regulation
NMS, the Commission highlighted the
importance of market forces in
determining prices and SRO revenues
and, also, recognized that current
regulation of the market system ‘‘has
been remarkably successful in
promoting market competition in its
broader forms that are most important to
investors and listed companies.’’ 19 The
fact that this market is competitive has
also long been recognized by the courts.
In NetCoalition v. Securities and
Exchange Commission, the D.C. Circuit
stated as follows: ‘‘[n]o one disputes
that competition for order flow is
‘fierce.’ . . . As the SEC explained, ‘[i]n
the U.S. national market system, buyers
and sellers of securities, and the brokerdealers that act as their order-routing
agents, have a wide range of choices of
where to route orders for execution’;
[and] ‘no exchange can afford to take its
market share percentages for granted’
because ‘no exchange possesses a
monopoly, regulatory or otherwise, in
the execution of order flow from broker
dealers’ . . .’’.20
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
The Exchange neither solicited nor
received comments on the proposed
rule change.

Commission (‘‘Commission’’), pursuant
to section 19(b)(1) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’) 1 and Rule

change to allow companies to modify
certain pricing limitations for securities
listed on the Exchange pursuant to a
direct listing with a primary offering in
which the company will sell shares
itself in the opening auction on the first
day of trading on the Exchange. The
proposed rule change was published for
comment in the Federal Register on
April 19, 2022.3 On May 26, 2022,

Commission instituted proceedings
under section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Act 6 to
determine whether to approve or
disapprove the proposed rule change.7
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 8 provides
that, after initiating proceedings, the

Commission may extend the period for
issuing an order approving or
disapproving the proposed rule change,
however, by not more than 60 days if
the Commission determines that a
longer period is appropriate and
publishes the reasons for such
determination. The proposed rule
change was published for comment in
the Federal Register on April 19, 2022.9
The 180th day after publication of the
Notice is October 16, 2022. The
Commission is extending the time
period for approving or disapproving
the proposal for an additional 60 days.
The Commission finds that it is
appropriate to designate a longer period
within which to issue an order
approving or disapproving the proposed
rule change so that it has sufficient time
to consider the proposed rule change
along with the comments on the
proposal. Accordingly, the Commission,
pursuant to section 19(b)(2) of the Act,10
designates December 15, 2022, as the
date by which the Commission should
either approve or disapprove the
proposed rule change (File No. SR–
