Computer glitch shuts down Toronto Stock Exchange
Dec 17 02:45 PM US/Eastern
Technical woes on Wednesday halted trading at the Toronto Stock Exchange, North America's third largest stock market, and no timeline has been announced for its reopening.
All trading was suspended "due to technical issues with data feeds," said a statement on the exchange's website.

"Because the data feeds provide information to investors to guide their trading decisions, trading was halted to ensure market integrity," it said.

The data feeds provide real-time data for stocks such as quotes and corporate actions on both the Toronto Stock Exchange and its junior TSX Venture Exchange, which was also closed.
