New York Stock Exchange (NYX) Stock Tumbles
New York Stock Exchange (NYX) tumbled on Friday after Goldman Sachs cut the exchange’s rating to neutral from buy, saying volume growthwould not meet previous expectations on its new hybrid trading system. NYX recently let go thousands of employees because of their new automated system would handle those jobs now. Shares were down $4.92, or 5.1%, to $92.32.
Jim Cramer made a compelling case for this stock about 5 weeks ago and I jumped on NYX along with Goldman Sachs–little did I know that GS’s downgrade of NYX would spell its future doom. I bought into the idea that Cramer gave with automation, layoffs and the case study of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange’s soaring price after going public. Fortunately I put a lower-than-usual amount into the New York Stock Exchange stock. I still have faith in the stock and if it goes down a little more, but still shows positive signs I will invest some more into it.
Friday came as a big shock as I watched the stock steadily go down all day. I was disappointed, but I do not think it is time to panic.
