the publication of notice of the filing of a proposed rule change, or 
within such longer period up to 90 days as the Commission may designate 
if it finds such longer period to be appropriate and publishes its 
reasons for so finding or as to which the self-regulatory organization 
consents, the Commission shall either approve the proposed rule change, 
disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to 
determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or 
disapproved. The 45th day after publication of the notice for this

change. Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of 
the Act,\6\ designates November 7, 2017, as the date by which the 
Commission should either approve or disapprove or institute proceedings 
to determine whether to disapprove the proposed rule change (File 
Number SR-NYSE-2017-36).
