U.S. stock exchanges on Thursday halted trading in all securities listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market because of a technical issue, exchange officials said.
Nasdaq OMX Group Inc. announced the halt at 12:15 p.m. ET Thursday, and other exchanges followed suit. Nasdaq also said it was halting trade in its options markets. A spokesman for Nasdaq declined further comment.
Notices of halts in individual securities started to cross the wire at about 12:18 p.m. ET in alphabetical order by ticker symbol, starting with the exchange-traded fund iShares MSCI All Country Asia Information Technology ETF, ticker AAIT.
The issue stemmed from a data feed that provides market data for Nasdaq-listed securities, the exchanges said in notices sent to traders.
