ICE's Sprecher Won't Confirm Or Deny Reports Of Nasdaq, ICE Bid For NYSE

Dow Jones News
The head of IntercontinentalExchange Inc. (ICE) declined to
comment on mounting speculation it would take part in an effort to
break up the agreed merger of NYSE Euronext (NYX) and Deutsche
Boerse AG (DB1.XE).
Nasdaq OMX Group Inc. (NDAQ) is close to securing funding to
make a hostile bid for the Big Board operator, offloading NYSE's
Liffe European derivatives arm to finance the move, according to
people familiar with the situation.
Jeff Sprecher, chairman and CEO of ICE, declined to confirm or
deny speculation of its participation in any planned move.
Sprecher is at a major futures industry conference in Florida,
the venue of his audacious move four years ago to break up an
agreed deal between the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and the Chicago
Board of Yrade.
ICE was ultimately outbid by CME, but taking a backseat to
Nasdaq-led efforts to break up a NYSE-Deutsche Boerse deal and
potentially acquiring Liffe would expand its European franchise
into interest-rate derivatives at a time when rate risk is seen as
increasing.
