Nasdaq said that the decision, taken in consultation with other exchanges, cannot be appealed. The exchange also said that it had no technology or system issues associated with the unusual trading in the stock market between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. on Thursday. Nasdaq said its market “operated continuously and its close process ran successfully.” The exchange also said there is no indication that a Nasdaq market participant experienced a failure in connection with “this event.” blogs.barrons.com
