| Tiivistelmä: | The authors analyze the ability of various market mechanisms to provide liquidity for large equity trades. Using data on 21,077 block transactions in Dow Jones stocks, they find that the "downstairs" NYSE floor market is a significant source of liquidity. Although negotiation in the informal "upstairs" market provides better execution than the downstairs market for large trades, these differences are economically small. The authors find however that upstairs markets are used by traders who can credibly signal that their trades are liquidity motivated. |
