2021-04681. Self-Regulatory Organizations; The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Enhance the End of Day Summary Message on Nasdaq Last Sale Plus  

  • Start Preamble March 2, 2021.

    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”),[1] and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,[2] notice is hereby given that on February 17, 2021, The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq” or “Exchange”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

    I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to enhance the End of Day (“EOD”) summary message on Nasdaq Last Sale (“NLS”) Plus by replacing the current high, low and closing price of a security based on its trading on the Nasdaq, Nasdaq BX and Nasdaq PSX exchanges with the high, low and closing price of a security published by the securities information processors (“SIPs”), and adding the opening price of a security as published by the SIPs to that message

    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's website at https://listingcenter.nasdaq.com/​rulebook/​nasdaq/​rules,, at the principal office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.Start Printed Page 13428

    II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

    A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    1. Purpose

    The Exchange proposes to enhance the EOD summary message on NLS Plus by replacing the current high, low and closing price of a security based on its trading on the Nasdaq, Nasdaq BX and Nasdaq PSX exchanges with the consolidated high, low and closing price as published by the SIPs, and adding the opening price of a security published by the SIPs to that message.[3]

    This Proposal is in response to requests by firms using NLS Plus for a broader benchmark against which to compare trades on the Nasdaq exchanges. Specifically, approximately 30 firms have requested that Nasdaq distribute benchmark prices on NLS Plus to provide retail investors and the general investing public with a static benchmark against which to compare the price movements shown on NLS Plus using standard high, low, opening and closing prices for U.S. markets as a whole. In response to that feedback, and also partly in response to recent changes by competitor exchanges to their end of day messages,[4] Nasdaq proposes to enhance its EOD message for NLS Plus—which currently provides the high, low and closing price of a security based on its trading on Nasdaq affiliates—with a new EOD message that provides the high, low and closing price published by the SIPs, and add a new field with the opening price of a security as published by the SIPs.[5]

    The Exchange proposes that this change become operative on April 12, 2021, to allow time to conduct customer testing in advance of the date of launch.

    To ensure consistency across Nasdaq platforms, the Nasdaq BX and Nasdaq PSX exchanges will be filing companion proposals to reflect these changes in their respective rulebooks.

    Nasdaq Last Sale Plus

    NLS Plus is a comprehensive data feed that offers retail investors, the general investing public, and other customers access to the last sale products offered by Nasdaq,[6] Nasdaq BX and Nasdaq PSX, and the consolidated volume information published on the SIPs for Tapes A, B, and C, in a convenient format that includes both real-time and end of day information.[7] It is, in essence, a market data vendor product that consolidates information from multiple Nasdaq exchanges and the SIPs. This product directly competes against similar products offered by other exchanges, and faces potential competition from data vendors, which can obtain and distribute SIP data on the same terms as Nasdaq.[8]

    At the close of each trading day, Nasdaq disseminates an EOD summary message on NLS Plus that includes the following information for all active Nasdaq- and non-Nasdaq-listed securities:

    • Nasdaq Price High: The highest price reported for a last sale transaction on any Nasdaq venue for the issue symbol during the current trading day.
    • Nasdaq Price Low: The lowest price reported for a last sale transaction on any Nasdaq venue for the issue symbol during the current trading day.
    • Nasdaq Price Closing: For Nasdaq-listed securities, this is the Nasdaq Official Closing Price value, if available. For non-Nasdaq-listed securities, it is the final last sale eligible transaction reported by any Nasdaq venue for the issue during normal market hours.
    • Consolidated Volume: Reflects the total volume for the issue reported at the consolidated market level.[9]

    Proposal

    The Exchange proposes to enhance the current EOD summary message by providing the open, high, low, close and volume of a security based on the consolidated data provided by the UTP and CTA/CQ plans for Tape A, B [10] and C [11] securities. This will require replacing the current high, low, and close on the Nasdaq exchanges with the following three fields:

    • Consolidated Price High: The highest price of any high/low eligible transaction on Tapes A, B or C received on the trading day.
    • Consolidated Price Low: The lowest price of any high/low eligible transaction on Tapes A, B or C received on the trading day.
    • Consolidated Price Close: The final last sale eligible transaction on Tapes A, B or C received on the trading day.[12]

    It will also require adding the following new field to the EOD summary message:

    • Consolidated Price Open: The first last sale eligible transactions received on the trading day for Tapes A, B or C.Start Printed Page 13429

    The Consolidated Volume field will not change.

    The above data will be available to users of the NLS Plus feed on a delayed basis, 15 minutes after the real-time dissemination of the above data points on the UTP and CTA/CQ data feeds for that day. The Exchange is not proposing any change to NLS Plus fees as a result of this modification.

    Discussion

    The NLS Plus data feed, designed for distribution to the general investing public,[13] is purchased by broker-dealers for dissemination to retail investors in the context of the brokerage relationship and financial media websites for the general investing public, among others. Approximately 30 firms that purchase or may purchase NLS Plus have requested that Nasdaq upgrade the EOD summary information to help investors place trades on the Nasdaq exchanges in the context of U.S. markets as a whole, rather than just the Nasdaq exchanges. Specifically, these firms requested that Nasdaq use benchmark prices for the high, low, opening and closing price of a security as published by the securities information processors to help investors understand price movements on the Nasdaq exchanges.

    This suggestion by Nasdaq's customers is comparable to changes in the end of day messages undertaken recently by two of Nasdaq's chief competitors, Cboe and NYSE, in their top-of-book data feeds. In 2020, both amended their end of day messages to identify the primary listing market's official opening and closing price after a 15-minute delay, which, similar to the proposal by Nasdaq's customers, establish an external benchmark against which to evaluate exchange data.[14]

    In light of customer requests and changing industry standards, Nasdaq has determined that the requested change to the EOD summary message is in the best interest of our customers. The end of day data published by the securities information processors provides useful information on the state of the U.S. market as a whole, and including it on the NLS Plus feed will enhance investor understanding of the proprietary data distributed by the exchange.[15] The proposal will also provide consumers with greater choice by offering an alternative to other EOD summaries offered in the market. Nasdaq therefore proposes to modify its EOD summary message to provide the Open, High, Low, Close and Volume of a security based on the consolidated data provided by the SIPs. This EOD message will be based on data obtained from the securities information processors, and will be distributed by Nasdaq as a vendor of SIP data, and will be subject to competition from all distributors of SIP data.

    The proposed change to the EOD summary message is not targeted at, or expected to be limited in its applicability to, any particular segment of market participants, and no segment of retail investors, the general investing public, or other any other market participant is expected to benefit more than any other.[16]

    The Exchange expects that the new EOD message will be attractive to potential customers, and, based on conversations with potential customers and our overall familiarity with the market, Nasdaq expects between approximately 10 and 20 additional customers for NLS Plus as a result of the proposed change.[17]

    2. Statutory Basis

    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act,[18] in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,[19] in particular, in that it is designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general to protect investors and the public interest, and is not designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.

    In 2015, the Commission found the creation of the NLS Plus data feed to be “consistent with section 6(b)(5) of the Act, which requires that the rules of an exchange be designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, remove impediments to and perfect the mechanisms of a free and open market and a national market system and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest . . . .” [20] The NLS Plus Approval Order noted that NLS Plus disseminated an End of Day Trade Summary among other messages,[21] and consolidated volume information obtained from the UTP and CTA Plans.[22] As NLS Plus and the current Start Printed Page 13430end of day messages and volume information have already been shown to be consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act, this analysis therefore focuses on the consistency of the proposal to enhance the EOD summary message with data on the open, high, low and closing price of a security published by the SIPs.

    NLS Plus competes with the substitute top-of-book proprietary data products offered by other exchanges, including the NYSE BQT feed, which disseminates top-of-book information from the NYSE, NYSE American, NYSE Arca, NYSE National, and NYSE Chicago exchanges,[23] and the Cboe One Summary Feed, which disseminates data from the BZX Exchange, BYX Exchange, EDGX Exchange and EDGA Exchange.[24] NLS Plus also competes with the offerings of data vendors that distribute the proprietary data feeds of Nasdaq and other exchanges. Of particular importance here, Nasdaq obtains data from the SIPs on the same terms as any data vendor, and Nasdaq has no latency, cost, or other advantage in the distribution of end of day SIP data as proposed herein. Retail customers are potentially able to obtain such information from any distributor of SIP data.

    This Proposal reflects the competitive nature of these markets. As noted above, both NYSE and Cboe expanded their end of day summary messages in 2020 to identify the primary listing market's official opening and closing price after a 15-minute delay.[25] Nasdaq's change to the EOD summary message is, in part, a competitive response to the data feed changes introduced by these two competitors. The Proposal also promotes competition by providing investors with an additional option for receiving consolidated EOD security data.

    Moreover, as explained above, the Proposal will enhance investor understanding of the proprietary data distributed by the Exchange by providing a benchmark against which to compare such changes.

    Competition with other exchanges in the sale of top-of-book products, coupled with potential competition from vendors in the distribution of proprietary and consolidated data feeds, and the likelihood that the Proposal will enhance investor understanding of securities markets and promote consumer choice, all provide a substantial basis for finding that the Proposal promotes just and equitable principles of trade, removes impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and protects investors and the public interest.

    The Proposal is not unfairly discriminatory. As noted previously, the NLS Plus data feed was found to be non-discriminatory and otherwise consistent with the Act in 2015.[26] The only change here is to enhance the EOD summary message with data on the open, high, low and closing price of a security published by the SIPs. As explained above, the proposed change to the EOD summary message is not targeted at, or expected to be limited in its applicability to, any particular segment of market participants, and no segment of retail investors, the general investing public, or any other market participant is expected to benefit more than any other. The proposed EOD summary message will be available to all NLS Plus purchasers, without differentiation of any kind, and is therefore not unfairly discriminatory.

    B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

    Intermarket Competition

    The Proposal, which adds the high, low, opening and closing price of a security as published by the SIP to the NLS Plus EOD message, will place no burden on intermarket competition (the competition among SROs). As explained above, NLS Plus already competes directly against the NYSE BQT feed and the Cboe One Summary Feed, and is subject to potential competition from market data vendors. In the particular context of distributing the proposed EOD message, the Exchange is in direct competition with any vendor of SIP information, and any vendor not currently distributing SIP data would be able to do so by obtaining such information from the SIPs and adding that information to their market data products. Rather than place a burden competition, the Proposal will enhance competition by providing consumers with greater choice through an alternative EOD summary not currently offered by NYSE or Cboe.

    Intramarket Competition

    The Proposal will not cause any unnecessary or inappropriate burden on intramarket competition (competition among exchange customers). As explained above, the Proposal is not targeted at, or expected to be limited in its applicability to, any particular segment of market participants, and no segment of retail investors, the general investing public, or any other market participant is expected to benefit more than any other. As such, the Proposal does not place any category of market participant at a relative disadvantage compared to any other market participant, and therefore will not impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the Act.

    C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    No written comments were either solicited or received.

    III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i) Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become effective pursuant to Section Start Printed Page 1343119(b)(3)(A) of the Act [27] and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.[28]

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or disapproved.

    IV. Solicitation of Comments

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of the following methods:

It removes an unnecessary sentence at the end of the description of NLS Plus stating that volume information reflects trading activity in Tape A and B Securities, and replaces it with an earlier reference to Tape A and B securities that provides the same information. It also separates the description of the end of day trade summary into two sentences for greater clarity: the first sentence lists the data provided by the Nasdaq equity exchanges, and the second sentence identifies the consolidated information obtained from Tapes A, B and C. The phrases “as well as consolidated volume of,” and “Cumulative Consolidated Market Volume” are deleted to remove repetitive language that might cause confusion.
