| Today the Securities and Exchange Commission voted to propose a rule that would force high-speed trading firms to register. High-speed trading firms are currently exempt from registration with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority when they trade for only their own accounts. The SEC says the rule allowing this exemption hasn’t been changed since 1983. Michael Lewis’s book “Flash Boys” brought more scrutiny to the practice. | |||||||
