Holy hell, guys.
This conversation is bordering on ridiculous. Actually I think we're already there.
Let's just say, good idea, DA! Maybe some people will come to check out this free fitness class that that new clothing store is offering and maybe they'll like what they see (on the racks that, yes, have been moved out of the way for the class), and maybe they'll purchase something, tell their friends about the place, etc...
Good stuff, nothing to come to blows over. All good things.
Also, I came across something on another board today that's worth sharing, I think. Enjoy:
FINRA Will Introduce Limit Order Display to the OTC Marketplace in May 2011
This May, Limit Order Display, originally implemented for exchange-listed stocks in 1997, will be introduced to the OTC marketplace. FINRA’s new Limit Order Display rule requires OTC market makers to display the price and size of any customer limit order that improves the price or size of their own published quote. Customers can request that their orders not be displayed or the market maker can choose to route an order to another firm that will comply with the rule.
Limit Order Display is the most recent in a series of new rules in the OTC marketplace that have long been applied in the exchange world. Effective this spring, these new rules govern locked and crossed markets, allow access fees to be included in published quotes, and restrict sub-penny quoting.
OTC Markets Group is dedicated to our clients and is available for questions at info@otcmarkets.com.
