White House reviews ban on trading through best price on stocks
The White House is reviewing a long-standing stock trading rule aimed at ensuring investors get the best prices. A proposal to modify or scrap the "trade-through" rule, which prevents trades from ignoring top bids or offers, has been posted for review. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins, who previously opposed the rule, believes it has negatively impacted market growth and investor execution.
