NYSE going global

http://www.latimes.com/news/printed...,1,3519739.story?track=rss&ctrack=1&cset=true

"The exchange's parent company is nearing completion of a $14-billion deal to buy Euronext, an Amsterdam-based company that runs securities markets in five European capitals."


Thoughts?

 

Hopefully, they'll change the rip-off culture in commissions on European securities trading. But, maybe it'll get even worse.

I'm still waiting for the day the idiots in London get rid of their stamp duty.

Overall, these foreign exchanges DO need a kick in the pants and be more accessible/cheaper.

 

Now they'll have the good old NYSE specialist rip-off culture...

 

Thieves on one side, crooks on the other!

 

but which method do they choose to rip off?

 

they are quite well diversified.

 

hey, maybe now they will extend the trading hours. Were now a "global" market.

 

You can start giving money to the specialists at 1am instead of having to wait till 930!!

 

I have a fantasy that NYSE management told the big traders DO NOT cause panic DO NOT cause volatility until after this merger deal is complete. After the merger then you can have all the fun and games you want.

 

great, the germans get another shot at fking america again but now with the french at their side!
