    This document from the Securities and Exchange Commission outlines a proposed rule change by MIAX PEARL, LLC regarding its fee schedule for network connectivity. MIAX PEARL plans to raise the monthly network connectivity fees for its 10 gigabit ultra-low latency (ULL) connections from $9,300 to $10,000 for both members and non-members.

The SEC is seeking comments on this proposal to ensure transparency and fairness in the setting of fees.

The proposed rule change is designed to increase choice in a competitive market without treating any group unfairly.
