The Path to the Big Board

 

The New York Stock Exchange is often referred to as "The Big Board", possibly due to the huge chalk boards once used to display the prices and number of shares traded.

The Discovery Café doesn't start by trading its shares on the Big Board, but as the company grows we follow a path that may lead there, and will involve us in the continuing battle over which will be the dominant exchange for the next hundred years: The New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, or some other exchange that does not now even exist.
