Due to the system trouble, Tokyo Commodity Exchange, Inc. (“TOCOM” or the “Exchange”) today halted the trading sessions for gold standard, gold mini and gold options contracts at 17:10.
After the efforts were made to investigate the cause of the trouble, TOCOM decided to suspend the night session for these three contracts at 18:16, for more time was needed to identify the cause of the trouble. TOCOM expresses its deepest apologies for the inconveniences the problem may have caused to those parties concerned.
The Exchange will continue to conduct the investigation of the trouble and resolve it over the weekend, and resume the trading on Monday, November 30, according to the regular trading schedule.
