NYSE CEO says confident on Euronext merger

By George Chen 35 minutes ago

SHANGHAI (Reuters) - NYSE Group Inc. (NYSE:NYX - news) Chief Executive John Thain said on Tuesday he was confident that shareholders of pan-European bourse Euronext (ENXT.PA) would approve its planned merger with the New York Stock Exchange.

"Yes, I'm confident," Thain told reporters at the CEIBS business school in Shanghai, his first stop during a four-day China trip, when asked if he felt he would win support from Euronext shareholders.

Thain said he believed European regulators would approve the merger soon after shareholders of both companies voted for it.

1. I'm not sure I see your point?

Are we in favor or opposed to a one world government? And we already have an economy that is linked across the globe.

2. And the land sings back: fat chance, fat chance.

3. It's a process thousands of years old

It's the logical outcome of every civilization that has come to be, died, and been replaced by the next which continued the process.

The only reason for the existence of expanding empires has been sameness. Power is much easier if there is one of anything; government, language, currency, economy, thought, way of living, etc. The complexity inside that bubble is always increasing, but that leads to a more specialized method, which lends itself to more control by fewer people.

6. Profound

and accurate expression. Thank you.

4. The wall street criminals are attempting to expand their empire and........

stranglehold on the corporate world so they can chisel every consumer and milk the existence of every corporation for their relentless quest of greed by accumulating ALL the wealth in the world while leaving the working class penniless and powerless. 'WE' peasants with pitchforks are standing by and ready to reclaim our share, regardless of the 'costs'.

5. I thought the fear of a "one world government" was the hallmark of

the radical, far, far, right?

[Double T]

7. The neocons have overridden the less 'far' RWers.........

so, as usual, it is up to those on the left, in 'OUR' various degrees, to put the greed-mongers in check and halt their takeover of the world.

11. The merger of two stock exchanges represents the "takeover of the world"

that's insane.

13. Taking the leap from one step to takeover

is insane.

[Double T]

14. Unfortunately, the fact that you, as well as many others, don't see THIS.......

a one more step in the progression of the takeover of the world by the neocon wall street criminals is baffling to me, unless you are part of the enabler class.

15. Maybe so

I mean my wife works for a financial services company who's first headquarters is on Wall Street, handing global transactions. An ancestor of mine was actually one of the people that loaned the money to the city to build the wall that Wall Street is named after (we still haven't been repaid for that.) I myself invest in European, Asian, South and Central American securities. Guess I must be an enabler. I just don't get the fear of the world becoming a smaller place, with it's people more connected to each other.

8. Outsourcing of "American" jobs is the same thing

It should be something that concerns everyone.

10. True, but then that was only when it was a Fantasy.

now it's a goal for some.

9. One world government is simply corporate rule.

American corporations once again trying to do a run-around American regulations.

These behemoths have personhood rights without the responsibility.

12. "One World" is coming, and should. The question is How will we relate to each other?

By corporate control and the WTO, or through the UN? Right-wingers who for years have screamed about the dangers of the United Nations seem perfectly willing to let multinational corporations build global monopolies. So we let a profit-driven entity, unaccountable to no one but shareholders, run the show rather than representative governments.

17. I was about to say the *exact* same thing

That's the choice, too: The WTO model vs the UN model.

16. I think this is a bad idea.

We need different countries to maintain a political balance in the world. It's too easy for one faction then to gain control of the whole world. How would you like it if the Saudis took control of a centralized world government?
