Knight Capital Group Inc.'s (KCG)

U.S. equity trading volume fell in July, as traders continued to operate at diminished-activity levels after last year's turmoil.

Average daily U.S. stock trades at Knight during July were 3.7 million, down 5.7% from June and 2.3% from a year earlier. On a dollar basis, trading decreased 7.1% sequentially and but rose 13% on the year to $25.42 billion. Daily average volume by number of shares was 7.38 billion, down 15% and 27%, respectively.

Save for a short period earlier this year in which stock-market volatility was significantly boosted as markets were shocked by the "flash crash" in May, trading has generally declined as stocks slumped to a bottom in March 2009 before rebounding sharply.

Knight last month said its second-quarter earnings jumped 53% as the company benefited from that brief boost in trading because of stock-market volatility.

Shares of Knight closed at $14.03 on Thursday and were inactive premarket. The stock has fallen 24% in the past year.
