February 28, 2023 Can a FAIR and PUBLICLY traded market allow certain trades to be internalized or hidden in dark pools? I think not. Can it allow payment for order flow? I think not. In an era of instant communication, should an electronic order FAIL to be delivered or take LONGER than an hour to settle? I think not. Should it take YEARS to fix these problems? I think not. Should all orders be visible so the price can be equally and fairly determined by all? I think so. Are market makers and broker-dealers given an unfair advantage when they can select which trades to show or hide? I think so. Should the laws of supply and demand determine the price? I think so.
