Trading in all securities has been temporarily suspended on the New York Stock Exchange. The exchange posted the news on its website, saying "additional information will follow as soon as possible." The halt began at 11:32 a.m. Eastern. In a statement the NYSE said it was working to restore trading activity. "We're currently experiencing a technical issue that we're working to resolve as quickly as possible. We will be providing further updates as soon as we can, and are doing our utmost to produce a swift resolution, communicate thoroughly and transparently, and ensure a timely and orderly market re-open," said a NYSE spokeswoman via email.

President Barack Obama has been told by advisers there is no indication there were "malicious actors" involved in the New York Stock Exchange trading halt, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said. The halt began on the exchange at 11:32 a.m. Eastern time. Earlier Wednesday, a Treasury official said the agency is working with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the matter. The official said it is primarily a matter for the SEC and the NYSE.

We’re experiencing a technical issue that we’re working to resolve as quickly as possible.
We're doing our utmost to produce a swift resolution & will be providing further updates as soon as we can.

The issue we are experiencing is an internal technical issue and is not the result of a cyber breach.
We chose to suspend trading on NYSE to avoid problems arising from our technical issue.
NYSE-listed securities continue to trade unaffected on other market centers.

New York Stock Exchange Reopens After Tech Glitch
Trading on the New York Stock Exchange resumed at mid-afternoon Wednesday after being halted for more than three hours by a technical issue.

There was still no explanation for what caused the suspension of trading from 11:32 a.m. until 3:10 p.m. ET. Earlier, the NYSE took to Twitter to assure the public that the shutdown was not caused by a cyberattack.

21. China American Depository Reciepts traded in NY, can not be sold fast enough!

23. I might be wrong (really good chance ) but Wall Street migh be afraid of ...

... massive computer driven trades tanking the market in response to China's
market taking a dive.

[Fred Sanders]

25. Click on the one year chart for the Shanghei...talk about super heated casinos:

[House of Roberts]

3. They're calling it a technical glitch.

NASDAQ isn't down too, so that could be all it is.

[bluedigger]

4. First an airline, then the NYSE...

Something going on?

[drm604]

6. That was my first thought also.

A cyberattack?

[-none]

5. The money boys want to re-stack the deck?

That's my first thought.

[Fred Sanders]

19. Let me guess the second...ISIS or sharks?

[Kelvin Mace]

22. Mexican sharks are raping Wall Street computers at the behest of ISIS

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

7. It's all a conspiracy I tell ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Fred Sanders]

17. It is a conspiracy within a conspiracy shrouded by a mystery...already a Scardy Pants thread or two.

[pscot]

8. Move along now

Nothing to see here.

[flamingdem]

9. WSJ website down too

as being reported on MSNBC by Chuckie Toad.

[passnobuck]

10. Three major outages in one morning... not just coincidence

That's my take on it. I hope I'm wrong.

Thankfully the United computer system is back up.

[flamingdem]

12. What would China get out of this?

They have a lot of capacity in this area.

Otherwise, coinkydince?

[passnobuck]

27. As I said, I hope I'm wrong.

There's also N. Korea, Iran, or just a group of malintended hackers somewhere.

United Airlines: just a worldwide computer system with known weaknesses.

WSJ and NYSE, I wonder if it's something like a cyber worm spreading as data is exchanged.

[Fred Sanders]

35. Wrong. Followed by more being wrong. Consistent....

[Mojorabbit]

38. Do you have inside information? nt

[lib87]

11. *Puts on Foil Hat*

This is an odd coincidence that all of these major businesses are experiencing 'glitches' in the same morning.

I wonder what is next?

[flamingdem]

13. Aliens land in United airplane and head to Wall Street?

[voteearlyvoteoften]

18. By Jove I think you've got it!

[flamingdem]

44. I say, would you kindly take me to your leader, yes yes

[lib87]

20. Solved!

lol I knew they were coming I just didn't know when!

[csziggy]

29. At the same time the United outage hit the news

Our internet link went "Pffft" for a few minutes. Total coincidence, but my husband was really startled at the timing.

[Jack Rabbit]

14. Trading will resume as soon as the slot machines are fixed

[B2G]

37. That spells a ton of volume. No big surprise. nt

[TheNutcracker]

31. We need Liz and her committee to jump on this!

[LanternWaste]

32. If this isn't proof that Oswald faked the moon-landings, I don't what is

If this isn't proof that Oswald faked the moon-landings, I don't what is. Impossible that more than three computer systems in the US can go down simultaneously on any given day. It's never happened before. Must be something more to it... or I simply don't know what I'm talking about (which is much more likely).

[flobee1]

33. Just a hunch

Just like in the bourne supremacy, when all the security cameras are all suddenly aimed towards the ceiling, something fucked up is about to happen, or is happening

[Bigmack]

34. "No signs of malicious activity at this time..."

Are you shitting me??? The stock market is nothing BUT malicious activity.

39. Why oh Why can't they take down the Student Loan Servicers of the world ...

.... even just taking ONE zero off my account balance would be greatly appreciated.

I'm paying interest on interest on capitalized and rebundled interest at this point, not actually making any progress paying of the LOAN itself ...

[nc4bo]

40. 6 months to a year down the road......

We'll find out it WAS nefarious in nature.

Does anybody actually believe anything anymore......hella nope.

[Earth_First]

43. Didn't 'Jade Helm 15' also begin today?
