Overall, U.S. cash equities average daily volume (ADV) was down 11% vs. July levels to 5.45bn shares. Cash equities ADV is running at 5.8bn QTD, well below our prior forecast of 6.1bn. Given current trends, our ADV estimate moves lower to 5.9bn, implying ADV of roughly 6.0bn for the month of September...Given current trends, our NYX market share estimate moves to 24.8% from 25.2%...NDAQ market share also declined on the month and given current trends, we are reducing our market share assumptions for NDAQ to 20.7% vs. our prior forecast of 21.6%."
