Serious question: can you document these price improvements? I am curious how this works in US equities. As you know I come from a largely OTC market....

what do you mean document? recently one firm released earnings saying they delivered over 1 billion in px improvement.

Document means to provide evidence, not make a simple assertion. Provide the tick data and the trades that *show* it.

I mean sure, you have to invoke counterfactuals and talk about opportunity costs and it gets a bit abstract but otoh ... opportunity costs are real? I don’t have an easy answer to the question “would markets be better if we put everything on a single l exchange” but it seems like

a question that it’s worth asking. Throwing up your hands and saying there’s nothing we can do, the issues are too theoretical and abstract, is not an answer we would accept for most other questions.

i think that this greatly depends on the definition of "better". better for whom?
