The communication link problem was corrected and the members were able to reconnect and commence the recovery of their systems.
As there were sufficient members ready to trade, the market re-opened at 17h30. During the course of this period, certain members experienced difficulty in trading and the market fairness equation was revisited. At this stage it was determined that a fair market did not exist and the decision was taken to close the market for the day.
The JSE regrets and apologises for any inconvenience this may have caused.
