Zarb pushed the proposal as a way to improve Nasdaq's ability to compete with the New York Stock Exchange and electronic trading networks like Reuters Group Plc's Instinet Corp.

Wouldn't this make Nasdaq the dominant exchange -- even over NYSE? And also put other ECN's out of business. (Not to mention scuttling Island's plan to be an exchange).

I think it also would reduce trading commissions for the doe firms since it would be a snap to get your fill done on a single ticket. Would also simplify software. Of course, commission structures would change to a more size-oriented type.

I didn't realize that it was the SEC that shot it down last time -- I had thought it was an internal Nasdaq thing.

Thanks for the articles.
