Forget DOS...these people probably ran CP/M

Back on February 4, I wrote a post about the New York Stock Exchange that traced its origins back to 1792.

Heck, that stock exchange is a baby. They're definitely not the oldest:

Generally the origin of the stock exchange is traced back to the stock exchange in Antwerp (1460). Still the Amsterdam Stock Exchange is considered as the oldest stock Exchange in the World. This was established in 1602 by the Dutch East India Company (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie or called VOC) that issued the first shares on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange.

The company was the first in issuing the stocks and bonds. It was later renamed as the Amsterdam Bourse and was the first to begin trading in secuirities.
