Nasdaq, Other Trading Exchanges to Meet With Gov. Abbott About Potential Move to Dallas – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
Gov. Greg Abbott will welcome representatives from major stock exchanges, including Nasdaq, to Austin on Nov. 20.
According to a report by The Dallas Morning News, the meeting is part of Texas's bid to be the top choice if the exchanges make good on their threats to move their trading platforms out of New Jersey.
Last month, the Dallas Morning News reported that Gov. Abbott's office was in talks with Nasdaq and other exchanges about moving data centers, which power billions of dollars in trades on Wall Street each day, to Dallas.
