NYSE suspends trading of all securities due to technical problems


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - The NYSE Group, which includes the New York Stock Exchange, has suspended trading in all securities due to technical difficulties, the unit of Intercontinental Exchange Inc said on Wednesday.

    "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 reopen," a spokeswoman for the exchange operator said in a statement.

    The stocks continue to trade on other exchanges, such as those run by Nasdaq OMX Group and BATS Global Markets.

    "It's under control," Mark Otto of market maker J. Streicher & Co in New York said on the NYSE floor. "We're just waiting for word. There's no sign of panic at all."
