26944 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 104 / Wednesday, May 29, 1996 / Notices

release to the public any news or

information which might reasonably be

expected to materially affect the market

for their securities. Listed companies are

currently required to disseminate

material news to Dow Jones & Company,

Inc. (‘‘Dow Jones’’) and Reuters

Economic Services (‘’Reuters’’). They

are also encouraged, though not

required, to promptly distribute news

releases to Bloomberg. Bloomberg’s

news network has dramatically

expanded in recent years and reaches a

broad base of equity participants and

related subscribers. It is common

practice today among many listed

companies to disseminate material news

to Dow Jones, Reuters and Bloomberg.

The proposed amendment will require

listed companies to disseminate news or

information which might reasonably be

expected to materially affect the market

for their securities to Bloomberg, in

addition to Dow Jones and Reuters.

2. Statutory Basis

The basis under the Act for this

proposed rule change is the requirement

under Section 6(b)(5) that an exchange

have rules that are designed to prevent

fraudulent and manipulative acts and

practices, to promote just and equitable

principles of trade, to foster cooperation

and coordination with persons engaged

in regulating, clearing, settling,

processing information with respect to,

and facilitating transactions in

securities, to remove impediments to

and perfect the mechanism of a free and

open market and a national market

system, and in general, to protect

investors and the public interest.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s

Statement on Burden on Competition

The Exchange does not believe that

the proposed rule change will impose

any inappropriate burden on

competition.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s

Statement on Comments on the

Proposed Rule Change Received From

Members, Participants, or Others

No written comments were either

solicited or received.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for

Commission Action

Within 35 days of the publication of

this notice in the Federal Register or

within such longer period (i) as the

Commission may designate up to 90

days of such date if it finds such longer

period to be appropriate and publishes

its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to

which the self-regulatory organization

consents, the Commission will:

(A) By order approve the proposed

rule change, or

(B) Institute proceedings to determine

whether the proposed rule change

should be disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

Interested persons are invited to

submit written data, views, and

arguments concerning the foregoing.

Persons making written submissions

should file six copies thereof with the

Secretary, Securities and Exchange

Commission, 450 Fifth Street, N.W.,
