1908
One such rival that emerged was the long-forgotten Consolidated Stock and Petroleum
Exchange of New York that grew out of a merger between the New York Petroleum Exchange
and Stock Board and the New York Mining Stock and Petroleum Exchange (Brown et al 2008).
Beginning in 1885, its 2,403 members began operations on what became known as “The Little
Board,” mere blocks from Wall Street (Michie 1986). In its 40 year history, the Consolidated
maintained 23 percent market share (Brown et al 2008). In 1908, the number of shares of
common stock traded on the NYSE, the Consolidated, and an unofficial “curb” market consisting
of independent brokers totaled 424 million. Less than half of this, however, 46.5 percent, was
conducted on the NYSE (Michie 1986). Despite an earlier gentleman’s agreement between the
New York Mining Stock Exchange barring it from trading NYSE stocks, the Consolidated aimed
to trade only the most liquid stocks on the NYSE. In addition odd-lot trading was offered as well
as a longer settlement period. A commission rate of only 1/16 percent was charged, undercutting the New York Stock Exchanges’ rate and attracting further business. The New York Stock
Exchange was forced to charge 1/8 percent, having passed previous rules restricting any further
reduction in this price (Michie 1986). This direct competition continued until legal issues forced
the Consolidated to close in February 1926 (Brown et al 2008).
1916
But the eradication of bucket shops on the eve
of the war was another important factor. The New York Times noted a “remarkable in-
crease in the odd lot business” on the stock exchange in April 1916; “thousands” of former
bucket shop customers, “practically all of whom were small speculators, have opened ac-
counts with branches of Stock Exchange houses.” Those new customers were used to the
mechanics of trading on margin because of their experience in bucket shops.47
1912
“Where the Common People Could Speculate”: The Ticker, Bucket Shops, and the Origins of Popular Participation in Financial Markets, 1880–1920 David Hochfelder
Sereno Pratt of the Wall Street
Journal estimated that in 1912 only 60,000 people placed trades on the New York Stock
Exchange, and as late as 1916 only 80 of the New York Stock Exchange’s 600 brokers ac-
cepted trades of less than 100 shares. In contrast, in 1902 Haight and Freese claimed to
have over 10,000 accounts. Some of those accounts, like the ones opened by the retired
Philadelphia typesetter Ridgway Bowker and the Bostonian Charles Weiss, belonged to
people who apparently believed that they were buying small amounts of stock through a
legitimate broker.45
