IT Checks Ordered After Second Bourse Shutdown
Japan's financial services minister, Kaoru Yosano, ordered all six of the country's stock exchanges to carry out urgent computer checks yesterday after the Nagoya bourse became the second to suffer a systems shutdown in three days.
Nagoya opened late yesterday due to a computer error. The key Tokyo stock exchange has launched an investigation into Tuesday's software malfunction that cost most of the day's trading.
The glitches failed to slow the rise of the Nikkei index, which passed the 14,000 level yesterday for the first time in four-and-a-half years.
