JSE opening delayed

[SimonPB]

Due to problems with the JSE systems the opening auction has been extended indefinitely and as such the opening is delayed.

We will advise as soon as the problem is rectified.

OH GOSH

[Pam_1]

Futures market just came alive

[john_1]

any indication as to when the market will open?

[SimonPB]

nope, no word from the JSE. SAFEX been trading since 8.55

[john_1]

hey Simon.. Does the script lending/borrowing guy still have his job?

[SimonPB]

it's a girl - yes.

[john_1]

Is she sweet, or are you just getting soft.

[john_1]

10% of the top 40 are currently unaivalble, that must represent a significant loss in turn over to SFM, never mind the 10% gain I was ubable to bank. I am grummpy as you know how hard I have worked to get my system together and now I cant trade the thing. It makes me even grumpier when there is stock available, even if its not available in huge quantities.

[platsak]

This is not helping the jitters already out there.

[#14]

Is this why the JSE Ltd share has been dropping so much? The price knows more than we do?

[#15]

I did add a smiley face. Just trying to calm my own jitters

[Zirk]

No fear. UK & US futures up. SA Top40 futures 404 pts up. Bodes well for Jse today. Just wonder how extended trading hours will benefit us today

[Stock11]

This is really pathetic. We pay you know!

[saash]

Simon, How long until this will get sorted out. Things are moving that will have an impact when this is eventually resolved.

[scandal]

where are you getting your futures data from? according to DWT 26574 was the high of day (221 pts from open)?

[SimonPB]

the JSE still has no ETA for opening.
