Organization of the Securities MarketOrganization of the Securities Market
• Primary markets– Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) and other
New issues are sold
• Secondary markets– Trading of already issued securities
takes place.

Investment Banks Make Primary Investment Banks Make Primary MarketsMarkets
• Initial public offerings (IPOs) occur when corporations and governments issue new securities into the primary market
• Sometimes corporations and governments with existing securities raise additional capital by issuing a new issue of seasoned securities
• Investment bankers find buyers for both IPOs and seasoned new issues

Investment Bankers’ Investment Bankers’ FunctionsFunctions
• Each public offering has four steps– Consulting with the issuer– Carrying out administrative duties– Underwriting the issue– Distributing the securities to investors

Secondary MarketSecondary Market• Once securities are issued in the
primary market, they can begin trading in the secondary market
• Types of secondary markets– Organized exchange run by dealers
(NYSE)– Electronic market in which dealers
compete with one another (Nasdaq)– Electronic communication networks
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
Why Secondary Markets Are Why Secondary Markets Are ImportantImportant
• Provides liquidity to investors who acquire securities in the primary market
• Helps determine market pricing for new issues

NYSENYSE• New York Stock Exchange (
www.nyse.com) lists approximately– 3000 common and preferred stocks
issued by American corporations– 300 foreign stocks– 250 American Depository Receipts
(ADRs)– Also trades bonds
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
NYSENYSE• Each stock traded on the NYSE is assigned
a specialist who must– Continuously post bid and ask prices for the
stocks in which they make a market– Stand at assigned posts on the trading floor– Act as market-makers (dealer)
• Always ready to buy at their bid price and sell at their ask (or offer) price
– Invest their own capital (risky) but may earn a return
– Execute orders for others (broker)– Earn the bid-ask spread on every transaction
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
DecimalizationDecimalization• A tick represents the minimum
amount by which a price can change
– The tick size is now 1¢ since the exchanges instituted decimalization
– Expected to reduce the bid-ask spread and trading costs
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
NYSE Listing RequirementsNYSE Listing Requirements• To be listed on the NYSE must have
– A minimum taxable annual income of $2.5 million
– A minimum net tangible assets of $18 million– A minimum of 1.1 million shares of publicly
held stock with a minimum market value of $18 million
– A minimum number of 2,000 investors owning round-lots (100 shares)
– One specialist
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
NYSE OperationsNYSE Operations• NYSE has 1,366 members who must own a
seat on the exchange– Almost all members are either specialists or
floor brokers
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
Floor BrokersFloor Brokers• Buy and sell securities for the clients of
brokerage houses or for their own accounts
• Order process– Broker receives order via phone from the
brokerage– Walks to trading floor and executes transaction
at the specialist’s post– Phones brokerage and provides confirmation
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
SpecialistsSpecialists• Accepts obligation to make a fair and
orderly market by– Selling shares out of their own inventory if
there are more buy orders than sell orders (or by raising the price of the security they control)
– Buying shares for their own inventory if there are more sell orders than buy orders (or by lowering the price of the stock)
• Keeps a limit order book (LOB) for each stock in which they make a market
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
NYSENYSE• Uses Super Designated Order
Turnaround (SuperDOT) system – Routes small market orders and limit
orders directly from member firms to specialists• Bypasses floor brokers• Specialists usually let PCs execute
SuperDOT transactions automatically

– Nasdaq and regional stock exchanges are the core of the third market
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
Fourth U.S. MarketFourth U.S. Market• Fourth market—a network of market-
makers, block traders and institutions– Bypass normal dealer services and
negotiate directly with each other– Instinet (short for Institutional Network)

Trading on MarginTrading on Margin• When opening a new account with a
brokerage firm, can have either– Cash account
• Must pay cash for securities– Margin account
• Offers ability to buy securities on credit• Money put forth by investor serves as a down
payment• Amount investors may borrow is controlled by
the Federal Reserve Board of Governors– For example, the Fed may stipulate a 60% margin,
meaning the investor must put forth at least 60% of the purchase price
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
Trading on MarginTrading on Margin• Federal Reserve’s margin
requirements for stocks– Varied from 10% (1929) to 100% (1940)– In recent years has been 50%
• Margin requirements are different for different types of securities

Margin TransactionsMargin TransactionsBuy 200 shares of Widget at $50/share = $10,000 Borrow 50% (initial margin) of investment ($5,000)If price increases to $60/share, position
– Value is $12,000– Less - $5,000 borrowed – Leaves $7,000 equity for a– Margin=$7,000/$12,000 = 58%
What is your rate of return with and without margin?

Margin TransactionsMargin TransactionsIf price decreases to $40/share, position
– Value is $8,000– Less - $5,000 borrowed – Leaves $3,000 equity for a– $3,000/$8,000 = 37.5% equity position
What is your rate of return with and without margin?

Short salesShort sales
• Sell overpriced stock that you don’t own and purchase it back later (at a lower price)
• Borrow the stock from another investor (through your broker)
• Three technical points of short sales– Short sale can only be made on an uptick
trade;– The short sellers must pay any dividends
due to investors who lent the stock;– Short sellers must post the same margin
as buyers of the stock

Types of Trading OrdersTypes of Trading Orders• Market order—order to buy or sell ASAP at the
current market price– Simplest, most common order type– Executed immediately with virtual certainty
• Limit order—order to buy or sell with a limit– Limit as to the maximum price paid for a buy order– Limit as to the minimum price received for a sell
order• If order cannot be immediately transacted, it is recorded in the
market-maker’s limit order book and held for possible future execution
– Order may never be executed if limit price is not reached – May attach a time frame to the limit order
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
Types of Trading OrdersTypes of Trading Orders• Stop orders
– To buy (sell) at prices greater (lower) than the current market price
– Activated when (if) the market price reaches the stop price
• Once activated becomes a market order
– Dangers with stop orders• Execution price cannot be known in advance
– Variation on stop order• Stop limit orders
– When stop order is activated it becomes a limit order rather than a market order

Why construct Market Why construct Market Indexes?Indexes?
1. Judge the performance of investment managers.
2. Form indexed portfolios.3. Perform research on the macroeconomic factors
that affect security prices.4. Analyze relationship between investment
returns across borders.5. Perform technical and fundamental analysis of
the entire equity class of assets.6. Serve as the “market portfolio” for measuring
beta and systematic risk.

Dow Jones Industrial Average Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA)(DJIA)
• Begun in 1884 with 11 stocks• Price-weighted average of thirty (since
1928) large well-known industrial stocks, leaders in their industry.
• Total the current price of the 30 stocks and divide by a divisor (adjusted for stock splits and changes in the sample)

Criticism of the DJIACriticism of the DJIA• Sample used is limited• Introduces a downward bias in DJIA by
reducing weighting of fastest growing companies whose stocks split
• Biased toward the behavior of the highest priced securities
• It represents the performance of a portfolio of an equal number of shares in each of the stocks in DJIA.

Unweighted Price Indicator Unweighted Price Indicator SeriesSeries
• All stocks carry equal weight regardless of price or market value
• May be used by individuals who invest the same dollar amount in each stock in the sample
• Some use arithmetic average of the percent price changes for the stocks in the index
Copyright © 2000 by Harcourt, Inc. All rights reserved.
Unweighted Price Indicator Unweighted Price Indicator SeriesSeries
• Value Line and the Financial Times Ordinary Share Index (London) compute a geometric mean of the holding period returns and derive the holding period yield from this calculation
