1 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. 2 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 2: Catherine Doherty is a finance reporter here at Bloomberg with 3 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,480 Speaker 2: a pretty specific beat. 4 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 3: I cover the plumbing of Wall Street. 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 2: She focuses on exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange 6 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 2: and Nasdaq. 7 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 4: Really, what I am covering and reporting on is how 8 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 4: the whole ecosystem works. 9 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 2: How the whole ecosystem works might be changing dramatically. In 10 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 2: late April, the New York Stock Exchange polled market participants 11 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 2: on how they felt about a radical idea keeping the 12 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 2: exchange open for trading twenty four hours a day instead 13 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 2: of from nine to thirty am until four pm Eastern. 14 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,599 Speaker 2: What went through your mind when you saw the New 15 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 2: York Stock Exchange was even thinking about setting up the 16 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 2: infrastructure for a twenty four hour trading day. I think 17 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 2: the first thought in my mind personally was, Oh, does 18 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: this extend into my protected weekends? 19 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 3: Yeah? 20 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 2: When does a Bloomberg reporter ever sleep if the market's 21 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 2: never closed? It's a good question, right, The answer is never, 22 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 2: But concerns about her sleep schedule aside. Once she thought 23 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: about it, Catherine had to admit the New York Stock 24 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 2: Exchange had to at least start asking the question, because 25 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 2: Like It or Not, trading outside of the Stock Exchange's 26 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 2: opening and closing bell has become a lot more common. 27 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,759 Speaker 2: For one thing, there's the always on crypto market. 28 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,119 Speaker 4: The crypto market and other markets trade twenty four to seven, 29 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 4: so it makes sense to at least ask the question 30 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 4: of should we be doing this. 31 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 2: Today on the show Like It or Not? Twenty four 32 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: hour trading in US stocks is taking off, but can 33 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 2: the market plumbing support the growing demand to trade all 34 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: day and all night. I'm Sarah Holder and this is 35 00:01:55,160 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 2: the big take from Bloomberg News. Bloomberg's Katherine Doherty says 36 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 2: that the current trading hours for the New York Stock 37 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 2: Exchange date back to over a century. 38 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 4: Ago, so it really stems back to the origination of 39 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 4: the Stock Exchange, when trades were placed in person. You 40 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 4: had to actually go down to the floor, and there 41 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 4: were brokers that were running orders on physical pieces of 42 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 4: paper to make sure that they got printed and that 43 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 4: they would actually be executed. 44 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 2: Even though today most trading is done electronically, the original 45 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 2: trading hours have remained the same. 46 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 3: The hours have. 47 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 4: Stayed because it gives a cleaner way for everyone to 48 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 4: live their lives and buy and sell within parameters. It 49 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 4: sets limits and that people like limits and they like 50 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 4: rules and order, especially on Wall Street. 51 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 2: Are we really limiting hours just so so people who 52 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 2: work on the Stock Exchange can have saner lives. 53 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 4: No, So think about if you're walking into a store, 54 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 4: a grocery store in there, and you're looking for fruit 55 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 4: and there's hundreds of apples for you to choose from. 56 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 4: You can be a little bit more choosy, get the 57 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 4: best one that you think is the most appealing. But 58 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 4: if there's only two apples left and they're both rotten, 59 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 4: that might be your only choice. So that's how I 60 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 4: like to think about it. The bigger the better, And 61 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 4: by setting these limits, you're essentially forcing everyone to come 62 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 4: together and to transact during these specific hours. So it's 63 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 4: very intentional, it is efficient, and it also creates better competition. 64 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 4: So the more information, the more people that are expressing 65 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 4: their value, that value is going to reflect the group 66 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 4: as a whole, and the bigger that group is, the 67 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 4: more accurate the price is going to be. 68 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 3: So what about for people. 69 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 2: Who want to trade but have their own day jobs, 70 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: or they wake up in the middle of the night 71 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 2: they're gripped by a desire to trade. 72 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 3: Can they trade now? They can, but they can't trade everything. 73 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 4: And the way in which they trade is different than 74 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 4: if they were trading during normal hours. So when you 75 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 4: are placing a trade, it isn't always going to go 76 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 4: through immediately. Also, there are different pricing limits that are 77 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 4: put in place. Think about when in normal trading hours, 78 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 4: prices fluctuate in milliseconds, and that's because there's transactions happening 79 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 4: all the time. During overnight, there's less transactions, So the 80 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 4: prices aren't going to be the term is as tight. 81 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 4: They're going to be wider. And so that just means 82 00:04:55,200 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 4: that there's less transactions going on. And so you're price 83 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 4: and what you are trying to buy a share at 84 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 4: like a specific point at a specificum price is going 85 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 4: to be a different experience than if you were buying 86 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 4: during normal trading hours. 87 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 2: But Catherine, I've definitely bought after hours on robin Hood. 88 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 2: They just told me they'd execute it in the morning. 89 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 2: We don't get that fun confetti. Is that not twenty 90 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 2: four hour trading? 91 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 3: So it is. 92 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 4: There are options robin Hood, Interactive Broker those are apps 93 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 4: that if you are approved to trade after hours, You 94 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 4: very much can, and that is because robin Hood, an 95 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 4: interactive broker, have teamed up with another venue called Blue Ocean, 96 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 4: and Blue Ocean is essentially the grocery store that stays 97 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 4: open later than everyone else, and so by partnering with them, 98 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 4: they're able to give their customers the experience that you 99 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 4: went through. That trade will be handled through robin Hood, 100 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 4: but on Blue Ocean's venue. That's how we have evolved 101 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 4: as a market to now offer the option to trade overnight. 102 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 2: Since it's twenty twenty one launch, Blue Ocean has seen 103 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 2: the number of stock transactions taking place in the average 104 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 2: night climb to forty million shares. That sounds like a 105 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: lot until you compare it to the average twelve billion 106 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 2: shares changing hands in the regular market, But that number 107 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 2: of overnight traders could rise as more industry players try 108 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 2: to go nocturnal. Hedge fund billionaire Steve Cohen as back 109 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 2: to in Exchange that wants to get into twenty four 110 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 2: hour equities trading too. The firm, aptly named twenty four 111 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 2: Exchange is just waiting for SEC approval and is expecting 112 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 2: an answer this fall. So what fundamentally has to change 113 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 2: about how the stock market operates to make twenty four 114 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 2: hour trading possible. 115 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 4: So those are the questions that even the industry itself 116 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 4: is trying to answer. The New York Stock Exchange they 117 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 4: conducted a survey with some of their users to ask 118 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 4: the question, do you even want to trade overnight? So 119 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 4: first they wanted to identify is their demand, because in anything, 120 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 4: if there isn't demand, no firm would want to put 121 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 4: in resources and essentially build something that people don't want 122 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 4: and aren't going to use. So that was the first 123 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 4: question that they asked, and then based on responses, they're 124 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 4: going to make the decision as a business of whether 125 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 4: they build the infrastructure. 126 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 2: The infrastructure right now. The need for trades to be 127 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: centrally cleared, settled by a third party firm acting as 128 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 2: an intermediary between buyer and seller is why twenty four 129 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 2: hour trading can only run for. 130 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 3: Five days a week. 131 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 2: But even if the middleman issue were sorted out, not 132 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 2: everyone is jumping at the prospect of twenty four to 133 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 2: seven trading. 134 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 4: In general, people don't really love change on Wall Street 135 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 4: because change means you have to adapt how things have been. 136 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 4: Change means you might have glitches. A lot of this 137 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 4: is really advanced technology, so if there is going to 138 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 4: be change, it means that you have to invest in 139 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 4: the infrastructure to adapt. 140 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 2: Coming up after the break, the potential and potential peril 141 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 2: of twenty four to seven trading, and what to do 142 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 2: with those iconic opening and closing bells if the market 143 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 2: never closes. So far, no major exchange has yet opened 144 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 2: up twenty four to seven trading, but Bloomberg's Catherine Doherty 145 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 2: says that a few changes in the past few years 146 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 2: have made the prospect of always on trading more appealing 147 00:08:55,880 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 2: to some, if not all, market participants like forensince retail traders. 148 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 4: This change is a continuation of the momentum that we 149 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 4: saw post COVID and post the memestock era. That was 150 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 4: really when the definition of trading changed and the definition 151 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 4: of a trader changed. 152 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 3: You could be at. 153 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 4: Home on your couch and you still can executing and 154 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 4: buying shares of the biggest US firms. So the definition 155 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 4: of how you trade who is a trader evolved and 156 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 4: it's continuing to evolve to adapt to people's lifestyle. 157 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 2: But it's not just memestock investors looking to trade on 158 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 2: the latest post in Wall Street Bets. 159 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 4: The American firms that have built out overnight trading have 160 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 4: said the most demand that they are seeing is from overseas. 161 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 4: This is in India, it's in Japan. 162 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 2: That makes sense because for them it isn't overnight exactly. 163 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 4: It's customers that want access to US stocks but don't 164 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 4: want to wake themselves up in the middle of the night. 165 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 2: So those are the kinds of people who might want 166 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 2: twenty four to seven trading. But there are just as 167 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 2: many saying is this really a good idea? But for 168 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 2: Wall Street traders, for example, what are the downsides of 169 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: this kind of model? When do you sleep if the 170 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 2: markets never close? 171 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 3: You know, I would say, oh, you wouldn't. 172 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 4: But a lot of these firms they have global reach, 173 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 4: and so if you are working and living in the 174 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 4: US and you need to provide a service overnight, you 175 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 4: might be able to tap a colleague in Asia or 176 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 4: in Europe before you have to wake up that day. 177 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 3: That depends on resources. 178 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 4: So for the firms that don't have that and aren't global, 179 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 4: you might not be able to compete in the same way. 180 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 2: Since we usually see these huge trading volumes right after 181 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 2: the opening bell and right before the four pm close. 182 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 2: Could overnight trading actually smooth the mark it out? 183 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 4: I don't think right now the volumes that are shown 184 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 4: overnight is enough to move the needle. It's not enough 185 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 4: to smooth everything out. And there are still market malfunctions. 186 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 4: There's technology that goes bad. Someone forgets to flip a switch. 187 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 4: What's crazy is that as automated as things have become, 188 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 4: and it's very automated, there's still times that there's manual errors. 189 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 4: So I don't think that overnight trading is going to 190 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 4: fix all problems and smooth everything out. 191 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 2: And what about regulators, how are they thinking about this? 192 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 2: Are they freaking out? 193 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 4: I wouldn't say they're freaking out. In fact, I would 194 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 4: say they're curious. So Gary Gensler, the chair of the SEC, 195 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 4: has talked about the fact that there's an application in 196 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 4: front of the SEC for an exchange that wants to 197 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 4: register and offer overnight trading, and the way he talks 198 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 4: about this is very diplomatic, and he just says, I 199 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 4: am open for not only competition, but for innovation in 200 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 4: the market. I want to support the market evolving. 201 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,079 Speaker 3: All that is good, But. 202 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 4: Then he prefaces by saying they still need to abide 203 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 4: by rules and regulation so that we prevent market manipulation 204 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 4: and that we provide a He always talks about an 205 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 4: equal playing field and a safe environment for investors, But 206 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 4: the rules of the. 207 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 2: Road that work for a set trading day don't necessarily 208 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 2: work around the clock. Just think of when companies usually 209 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 2: report earnings before the opening bill or after markets close, 210 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 2: and that's for a reason so as not to cause 211 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 2: wild swings in their share prices while the markets are open. 212 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 2: If markets are open long past four pm, when will 213 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 2: companies drop bad news. It's just one of many questions 214 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,079 Speaker 2: this change raises. So, Catherine, what are the odds of 215 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: this actually happening? 216 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 4: It is happening, that's not a question. The question is 217 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 4: how does it evolve, and that will be determined by 218 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 4: the big players getting behind it in a meaningful way. 219 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 4: If you did have the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq, 220 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 4: which are the two biggest stock exchanges in the US, 221 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 4: say that they are entering the space, that would be 222 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 4: meaningful because it would both be a signal from traditional 223 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 4: institutional finance firms that they believe this is where the 224 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 4: future of finance is headed, and it would also attract 225 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,319 Speaker 4: a bigger pool of investors potentially. 226 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 2: What are the odds of the New York Stock Exchange 227 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 2: adopting this model. 228 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 4: As of today, I would say it's unlikely. And that's 229 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 4: just that's my read of the situation. That is Catherine 230 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 4: Doherty's prediction, and only because very recently we had Lynn 231 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 4: Martin on TV asked about twenty four to seven trading. 232 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: Let's head to thew York where Danny Berger is joined 233 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: by the New York Stock Exchange President Lynn Martin to 234 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: talk about why we all need. 235 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 3: Twenty four to seven trading in our lives. 236 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: Danny, Hi, Lisa, that's right, because you know, we want 237 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: to be wrangling the kids and have the ability to 238 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: trade while we do. Say Hyland, thank you so much 239 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: for joining us, Thanks for having me. So some others 240 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: might have opinions about this, but overall, the survey that 241 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: you've gotten so far from what you've heard, I know 242 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: you're still in the middle of it. What have you 243 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: heard so far? What we've heard is there are a 244 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: lot of things to consider, mainly on the infrastructure side, 245 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: which is not really a surprise. 246 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 4: And if she's saying that, it's not to say that 247 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 4: they might not work on it, but that takes time, 248 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 4: and her initial read seemed to be skeptical. So I 249 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 4: don't think this is going to happen in a meaningful 250 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 4: way with the New York Stock Exchange anytime soon. 251 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 2: If it ever did happen, would they have to retire 252 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 2: the bell. 253 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 3: I don't think they're ever going to retire that bell. 254 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 3: They love that bell because that bell is the it's a. 255 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 4: Symbol, it is it's their brand, and that brand is value. 256 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 4: They have firms that will list on the New York 257 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 4: Stock Exchange because they want their executive to get on 258 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 4: the floor right as the market is opening and ring 259 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 4: the bell. 260 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 2: So even if there's no closing, no opening, you think 261 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 2: the bell will still be told. Yes. 262 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 4: I think it's a true marker of history, and I 263 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 4: think again, people love consistency in finance. 264 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 2: This is the big take from Bloomberg News.
