The guy said they built their own fiber optic line from New Jersey to Chicago that was a few milli-seconds faster than the normal route. In those milli-seconds they buy up the available shares and sell to you at a slightly increased price. I don’t know how they accomplish all this but it looks like an interesting book.
--so 812 miles at $21,700/mile = $17.6 million. I want one!
I love Lewis’s work. Should be a good read.
