Business & Finance. List of Stock Exchanges. A stock exchange is an institution, organization or association that serves as a market for trading financial instruments such as stocks , bonds and their related derivatives .
Most modern stock exchanges, like NYSE Euronext , have both a trading floor and an electronic trading system. Exchanges make money in several different areas. Listings, sales, and selling market statistics are some of the various ways that they produce revenue. Electronic trading has dramatically reduced the cost of entry into this market. Several exchanges have developed in recent years such as BATS Exchange out of Kansas City. Increasingly, exchange owners and operators are getting themselves listed on their own exchanges.

CNNmoney. NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Bing, Microsoft's two-year old search engine, is losing nearly a $1 billion a quarter, with no sign of letting up.
Microsoft (MSFT, Fortune 500) has lost $5.5 billion on Bing since the search service launched in June 2009, but the company's search losses actually pre-date that. In fact, the software giant has never made money in its online services division. Since Microsoft began breaking out that unit's finances in 2007, the company has lost a total of $9 billion. Even the good news with Bing isn't so great. Microsoft proudly proclaims that it has gained search market share against Google (GOOG, Fortune 500) in each of the past 27 months. Bing currently maintains a 14.7% share of the search market, up from 8.4% when Bing launched, according to online data tracker comScore (SCOR). More than half the share that Bing has gained has actually come from third-place Yahoo (YHOO, Fortune 500).
Can Bing escape its stagnation and actually make money? It sounds great. Stock Exchange Listings. List of stock exchanges.
