NEW YORK, May 6, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- The law firm of Wechsler Harwood LLP, one of the leading firms in the country that represents investors, is investigating claims against Archipelago Holdings, Inc. ("Archipelago") (PCX:AX). The claims concern whether Archipelago is failing to maximize shareholder value in its proposed merger with the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). Archipelago is taking advice in connection with that proposed merger from the Goldman Saks Group, Inc. ("Goldman") while Goldman, in an inherent conflict of interest position, is also rendering advice to the NYSE, and Goldman's former CEO is now head of the NYSE.
