New York Stock Exchange suspends trading

What exactly does this mean? I'm looking at a bunch of ticker symbols and they're all still changing in price (and have been since the announcement was made).

 

trading is resumed. they are sticking to the glitch story.

 

China is going to be the reason mortgage rates go down.

This will be a hot next few months with rates.

 

I have two theories:

1. Hacking Team dump revealed something and they had to fix it quickly.

2. Test run by a group of black-hatters somewhere.

I'm not buying the "glitch" story, not for a second.

Latest story is "software update went bad" which I think lends credence to (1). But they'll never admit to it being a security-related issue. I'm pretty sure it is -- there is otherwise no good reason to try to patch software in the middle of the training day with such far-reaching consequences. This was an act of desperation, one way or another.
