Date 05/11/2002

For the eighth straight month, The Cincinnati Stock Exchange was the third largest stock market in the United States, averaging over 225 million shares and 415,000 trades per day in NYSE, Amex, and Nasdaq listed securities during October. "We are gratified that broker-dealers have responded to our value proposition by sending us their order flow," said David Colker, President and CEO of the Cincinnati Stock Exchange. "Our growth can be attributed to superior execution quality, low cost, innovative technology, and diligent regulation."

Founded in 1885, The Cincinnati Stock Exchange was the first stock exchange to replace its physical trading floor with a remote electronic floor. Cincinnati was also the first stock exchange to automate its link with the Intermarket Trading System and the first exchange to develop a complete electronic audit trail for regulating trading activity. CSE is the low-cost provider of exchange services. More information can be found at www.cincinnatistock.com.
