I. Introduction On March 22, 2024, The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (‘‘Nasdaq’’ or ‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’ or ‘‘SEC’’), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Exchange Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 a proposed rule change to increase fees for certain market data and connectivity products and to maintain the current fees for such products if members meet a minimum average daily displayed volume threshold (‘‘Proposal’’).3 The proposed rule change was immediately effective upon filing with the Commission pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Exchange Act.4 The proposed rule change was published for comment in the Federal Register on April 5, 2024.5 The Commission has received comment letters on the proposed rule change and a letter responding to comments from Nasdaq.6 On May 21, 2024, the Commission issued an order temporarily suspending the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(C) of the Exchange Act 7 and 1 15 None. See Section II for public proceedings. This Notice will be published in the Federal Register. VerDate Sep<11>2014 SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Jkt 265001 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4. 3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 99879 (April 1, 2024), 89 FR 24070 (‘‘Notice’’). 4 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). A proposed rule change may take effect upon filing with the Commission if it is designated by the exchange as ‘‘establishing or changing a due, fee, or other charge imposed by the self-regulatory organization on any person, whether or not the person is a member of the self-regulatory organization.’’ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(ii). 5 See Notice, supra note 3. As part of the Proposal, the Exchange included an Exhibit 3 containing a paper in support of its proposed rule change written by Nasdaq Economic Research. See Phil Mackintosh & Michael Normyle, Nasdaq Economic Research, ‘‘How Exchanges Compete: An Economic Analysis of Platform Competition’’ (February 2024), available at https://www.sec.gov/ files/rules/sro/nasdaq/2024/34-99879-ex3.pdf (‘‘Nasdaq Paper’’). 6 Comments received on the Proposal are available at https://www.sec.gov/comments/srnasdaq-2024-016/srnasdaq2024016.htm.

This order disapproves the proposed rule change because, as discussed below, the Exchange has not met its burden under the Exchange Act and the Commission’s Rules of Practice to demonstrate that the Proposal is consistent with the requirements of Sections 6(b)(4), (b)(5), and (b)(8) of the Exchange Act, in particular the requirements that the rules of a national securities exchange ‘‘provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among its members and issuers and other persons using its facilities,’’ not be ‘‘designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers,’’ and ‘‘not impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of [the Exchange Act];’’ as well as Section 11A of the Exchange Act and Rules 603(a)(1) and 603(a)(2) of Regulation NMS which, among other things, require the Exchange to distribute market data on terms that are ‘‘fair and reasonable’’ and ‘‘not unreasonably discriminatory.’’11 II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change and Exchange’s Representations As described in more detail in the Notice and Order Instituting Proceedings, the Exchange proposes to increase non-member and member firm fees for Non-Display Usage 12 of depthof-book data and the fees for the Exchange’s 40Gb and 10Gb Ultra highspeed connections to the Exchange.

The Exchange also states that, although either top-ofbook or depth-of-book data can be used for NonDisplay Usage, the Proposal modifies fees for depthof-book data only. See id.
