The intense rivalry between stock exchanges has usually focused on the more arcane: which has the best trading systems, the greatest number of members or the highest trading volume?

Seifert is renowned for his love of motors and has an impressive collection of British sports cars. Like most Italian men, Capuano also loves cars â preferably fast, red sporty numbers.
