Eurex didnt exist in 87 :-)
.....and besides that, they have often days with near TEN TIMES the S&P
volume and they provide realtime bid + ask + bidsize + asksize and do
electronic STOPS and already years ago a study has been published that
volume can be better moved on an electronic system than in a comparable pit
market. Ofcourse that wasnt emini <~> SP but LIFFE BUND against DTB
BUNDS.
