Supporting cables run from a 800-foot former military communication transmission tower as it stands in Houtem, Belgium, on Wednesday, June 18, 2014. Computers are using former military towers to shoot signals at lightning speeds from boerses in Frankfurt to exchanges in London, profiting from price moves that evaporate before other traders can catch up, according to telecommunications executives and European government officials.
