NYSE (New York Stock Exchange)

The NYSE is the largest stock exchange in the world by the total market value of its listed companies, operating from Wall Street in New York since 1792. It uses a hybrid model that still assigns a Designated Market Maker to each listed stock alongside fully electronic trading.

Listing on the NYSE has historically signaled scale and stability, since its requirements (minimum market value, share price, and shareholder count) screen out the smallest companies. Coca-Cola, Disney, and JPMorgan are longtime NYSE names, though the line between NYSE and NASDAQ listings has blurred as more large tech companies chose NASDAQ instead.
