The New York Stock Exchange was one of at least seven exchanges sued by an Alabama man who claims they cheated subscribers by selling preferred access to market data to some of their customers.
Harold Lanier said in a complaint filed in Manhattan federal court that the exchanges gave some customers an advantage of more than 1,000 microseconds over other customers to market data they used to make high-frequency trades.
