Description

The sudden evaporation of meaningful prices for many major exchange-listed stocks in the middle of a trading day is unacceptable. This testimony summarizes the events on May 6th using the best info. that is available. Provides an overview of the current market structure for the U.S.-listed securities, including the national market system and Reg. NMS, the highly automated nature of trading in today’s markets, and the market-wide circuit breakers and other individual market “time out” mechanisms designed to address difficult trading conditions. Finally, Schapiro discusses various regulatory tools that need to be considered in determining how best to maintain fair and orderly financial markets and to prevent severe market disruptions in the future.
