A technical glitch halted trading on Eurex, Europe’s largest derivatives market, for about 60 minutes, adding to this month’s tally of exchange breakdowns following a three-hour shutdown of the Nasdaq Stock Market.
The bourse first said it was investigating “technical issues” in a post on its website at 8.30 a.m. Frankfurt time today, with data compiled by Bloomberg showing no prices for futures on the benchmark Euro Stoxx 50 Index and Germany’s DAX Index from about 8:15 a.m. Trading resumed at 9:20 a.m., Frankfurt-based Eurex said in a separate statement.
