EU Blocks Near-Monopoly of D.Boerse-NYSE Merger

Description:European Union regulators have blocked the merger of exchange operators Deutsche Boerse and NYSE Euronext to avoid giving them a stranglehold on the European futures market. Deutsche Boerse and NYSE Euronext unveiled the plan to create the world's biggest stock exchange as long ago as February 2011. They said they would now unwind the deal, which is the sector's fourth failed tie-up attempt in a year. (3:01)
