Via: Reuters:

All trading on Nasdaq, the second-biggest U.S. stock exchange, was halted on Thursday shortly after midday due to a technical problem, the exchange said.

All traffic through Nasdaq stopped at 12:14 p.m. EDT, the exchange said on its website, citing a problem distributing stock price quotes. The exchange, which lists about 3,200 companies, said it expects to resume trading later on Thursday.

Meanwhile, the New York Stock Exchange’s parent, NYSE Euronext, has ceased all trading in Nasdaq-listed shares at the request of Nasdaq.
