    Nasdaq PHLX LLC filed a proposed rule change with the Securities and Exchange Commission to adjust certain fees for its market data products based on inflation. The changes are intended to restore fees to their original real value, as many have not been updated for years and have decreased in real terms due to inflation. The adjustments will be phased in over three years, starting in 2025. The exchange claims this change is necessary to recoup investments made to enhance their products and maintain technology infrastructure, ensuring they continue to meet the needs of their customers.

    Nasdaq PHLX LLC wants to raise some prices because money doesn't buy as much as it used to, and they need to make sure they have enough to keep their stuff updated and working well. Some people are unsure if this is really fair because it might feel like the prices are going up too much or too fast without a clear reason.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is seeking public comments on this rule change.

  • 2021-00165 — Grain Fees for Official Inspection and Weighing Services Under the United States Grain Standards Act (USGSA)
    💰
    Type:Notice
    Citation:86 FR 1475
    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) has announced the 2021 fee schedule for the official inspection and weighing of grain, required by the United States Grain Standards Act. The schedule adjusts fees based on the annual evaluation of operational costs and reserve funds. As the operating reserve was short of the target, all Schedule A service fees increased by 5% for 2021. Information on these fees is available on the agency's public website.

    Simple Explanation

    The government has decided to increase the cost of checking and weighing grain by 5% this year because they didn't have enough money saved up. They didn't talk about other ways to save money, and they didn't explain the price change clearly, making it hard for people to understand if the increase is fair.
