Tuesday 10 May 2005 at 16:00

A New York Stock Exchange member has filed a lawsuit attempting to block the exchange's takeover of Archipelago Holdings, the trading system, claiming that it "grossly undervalues" the NYSE.

The class action lawsuit also names Goldman Sachs, adviser to both sides, as a co-defendant claiming it "manipulated the deal to its own advantage".
