The suspension of trading on the New York Stock Exchange for more than four months following the outbreak of World War I fostered a substitute market on New Street as a source of liquidity. The New Street market suffered from impaired price transparency because its transactions were not disseminated on the NYSE ticker and its quotations were blacklisted at the leading newspapers. This paper shows that despite the incomplete information flow and the somewhat wider bid-ask spreads compared with the New York Stock Exchange, New Street offered economically meaningful liquidity services. The interference with price transparency turned an individual stock’s reputation for liquidity into an important added variable in explaining the structure of bid-ask spreads on New Street. 2 I. Introduction It is not so surprising that the outbreak of World War I forced the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to close.

  • [List of Stocks Registered on National Securities Exchanges]
    F e d e r a l R e s e r v e Ba n k O F D A LLA S Dallas, Texas, July 29, 1953 To All Banking Institutions in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District: On June 9, 1953 we sent you a copy of Amendment No. 12 to Regulation U which is to become effective August 1, 1953. A principal provision of the amendment is that a bank loan for the purpose of purchas­ ing or carrying a “redeemable security” issued by an “ open-end company” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, whose assets customarily include stocks registered on a national securities exchange, shall be deemed under the regulation to be a loan for the purpose of purchasing or carrying a stock so registered. The amendment also provides that in determining whether or not a security is a “ redeemable security,” a bank may rely upon any reasonably current record of such securities that is published or specified in a publication of the Board of Governors. This, of course, adopts the same procedure as that specified in the regulation for determining whether or not a security is a “ stock registered on a national securities exchange,” and in the past the Board has published a “ List of Stocks Registered on National Securities Exchanges.” This list has now been revised and expanded to include also a list of “redeem­ able securities” of the type covered under the regulation by Amendment No. 12 thereto. A copy of this list dated June, 1953 and listing such stocks and securities as of March 31, 1953 is enclosed.

  • Century Economy for Baltimore 4
    Banking for a Baltimore Undivided Confronting Race and Class to Increase Opportunity and Equity for People and Neighborhoods For too long, Baltimore’s people and communities have had little or no say in the direction of the government or how tax dollars are spent. They do not determine how their communities are developed, and so they have watched as government has gone into debt to fund the development of downtown areas - while neglecting the very real needs of neighborhoods throughout the rest of the city. The Baltimore uprising of 2015 brought long festering problems to the forefront and showed that Baltimore needs transformational change - not tinkering with the status quo. The investment strategies and policies for the past 60 years are no longer relevant or feasible. A Joshua Harris Administration is ready to enact enabling legislation to fund investment strategies that make sense in 21st century Baltimore. This plan, based upon successful urban policies from throughout the United States and the world, will empower the residents of Baltimore to decide the future direction of their city. I recognize the community economic challenges facing Baltimore will not be fixed by the next Mayor alone, but by a Mayor who authentically involves community in every strata of a community economic development vision. It will be fixed by the people, first at the neighborhood level and then as a united city, working together for a better future. As Mayor, we will work to ensure the full participation of our residents in creating a united 21st century city. The plan will shift power from City Hall, big developers and Wall Street to people, neighborhoods and communities - because the people who are most affected by Baltimore’s problems are the ones who have the solutions.

Under its present course of action, apparently approved in Rubber Workers, the Board seems to have established itself as a fair employ- ment practice committee.49 This development is undesirable for the expansion of the Board's jurisdiction to include fair employment practices has an adverse effect on the primary function of the Board, that of supervising the collective bargaining process. Setting up fair employment standards to be applied by the Board while labor and management engage in collective bargaining would destroy much of the flexibility and perhaps the effectiveness of the collective bargain- ing process." The extensive supervision required might amount to little less than governmental control of labor-management relations.
