	American Stock Exchange LLC: Release No. 34-48872; December 3, 2003 (Self-Regulatory Organizations; Notice of Filing ...
		According to the Amex, the Amex and the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE") have historically had virtually identical rules with respect to the circumstances under which a broker holding a customer's securities in "street name" may give a proxy to vote such shares on a particular issuer proposal without the beneficial owner's instructions.
		Therefore, the Exchange's proposed provision would be consistent with NASD and NYSE rules regarding broker voting on equity compensation plans, as well as with the rules of the regional exchanges.
		The Commission further notes that this transition period is consistent with the transition periods recently approved for the regional exchanges and should ensure that the Amex's broker voting prohibition is in place for the upcoming proxy season and will be implemented by the same time as the other marketplaces.

		AMEX is the fascinating history of the American Stock Exchange, the nation's second largest organized securities complex, from its inception in 1921 to 1971.
		Unable to compete with the New York Stock Exchange and with no ambition to rival it or replace it anyway, the Curb Exchange traders were enterprising and unconventional.
		Most of the stocks handled by the Curb Exchange were from "young companies or marginal firms, many of which would disappear through mergers, bankruptcy, or other means." Some would eventually move to the Big Board.

	American Stock Exchange Definition
		The second-largest stock exchange in the U.S., after the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
		In general, the listing rules are a little more lenient than those of the NYSE, and thus the AMEX has a larger representation of stocks and bonds issued by smaller companies than the NYSE.
		Stocks, bonds and mutual funds are the most popular asset classes and therefore get most of the market's attention, but there are other important investment opportunities every investor should know about as well, including options, futures, and currency.
