The Inbox: Listener questions and comments

  • Question from GG: Has there ever been talk of some sort of technology glitch or shutdown futures? In the wake of the NYSE problems it seems there would be a fertile market for such a product. Firms could hedge themselves against system risk. Please discuss.
  • Question from Cybortrader: when the race to zero winds down to its inevitable conclusion what do you think will be the next big battle ground for HFTs? CPU/GPU cycles? Co-location proximity?
