mm can DELAY REPORTING A TRADE FOR A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME (90 seconds?).

Any market participant - dealers, proprietary traders, and the like - need not print a trade to the tape for up to 90 seconds after execution.

Dealers, proprietary traders, and direct access folks do not have the option, though, of delaying (for the aforementioned 90 seconds or less) SelectNet executions, SOES executions, and trades done on ECNs which are transmitted and printed accordingly via ACT. The ones whereby a 90 second or less clock comes into play typically, and overwhemlingly, pertains to telephone initiated trades, such as in OTCBB and Pink Sheet issues.

this is a new rule that came in a few months ago to help the mm (like they need it)[.]

LOL, where'd you get that from? That rule is a part of the UPC (Uniform Practice Code), and has been in effect for years.
