Abstract

All NYSE-listed stocks were switched from a fractional to a decimal trading system on January 29, 2001 and all NASDAQ stocks followed suit on April 9, 2001. The conversion to decimal trading in the U.S. markets has significantly reduced bid-ask spreads. This decline is primarily due to the drop in market makers’ costs for supplying liquidity. In addition, rounding becomes less salient after the decimalization. The decrease in bid-ask spreads can be ascribed to the decrease in price rounding, when controlling for the changes in trading variables.
