Cash market closure did not occur as expected tonight as auctions did not take place for many instruments. Instead of this, trading was maintained in continuous mode for reasons that are being investigated.

Because of these issues, Euronext has decided to cancel all the trades that occurred after 5.30pm CET (5.28pm CET for Euronext Dublin) on all asset classes except Commodities .

The closing price for today will be the last traded price for each instrument.

All order books on all asset classes will be purged prior to the call phase tomorrow morning, in order to secure smooth opening.

We are sorry for the inconveniences caused

A series of failover occurred on the partitions ETF, EQD 2 and EQD0 respectively at 15:00:07, 14:59:12 and 15:17:03. These were caused by an increase of memory consumption partly related to the issue of this morning. Investigation is ongoing.

Please also note that latencies are observed on the Drop Copies, as a consequence of the same issue. Investigations are still ongoing on that matter, we will share the updates as soon as they become available.

Root cause has been found on the Warrants and Certificates segment however the platform will remain closed until the end of the day to ensure integrity of data and fair and orderly market for participants. Trades that took place earlier today have been properly processed.

Trading on all other platforms remains open and closing will happen as normal.

Euronext apologizes for the inconveniences caused.
