TSE Experiencing Data Feed Problems

Date 07/09/1999

The Toronto Stock Exchange is experiencing communications difficulties at this time affecting outbound information on The High-Speed Vendor Feed and the Canadian Consolidated Data Feed. This problem is impacting members' gateway access to the TSE as well as some information transmitted to the derivatives trading floor. As a result, we have closed (11:30am) the derivatives trading floor until further notice. Equity order entry and order inquiry as well as trading via CATS (Computer Assisted Trading System) is proceeding normally. The TSE has determined that resolution of this situation requires that the equity market be closed at 12:15 for approximately 15 minutes. There will be a 20 minute pre-open from 12:30pm to 12:50pm after which Time trading is expected to resume normally. We will update you on the status as information becomes available.
