U.S. stocks fall amid NYSE shutdown

wise-owl.comPowered by

The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index fell to a four-month low amid concern

that China’s equities rout will hurt growth in the world’s second-largest

economy, and Federal Reserve minutes indicated officials

acknowledged the potential risks from overseas crises.

Raw-materials, banks and semiconductor shares were among the

worst performers.

The S&P 500 fell 1.7 percent to 2,046.68 at 4 p.m. in New York, its

lowest close since March 11. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost

261.49 points, or 1.5 percent, to 17,515.42, a five-month low. The

Nasdaq Composite Index declined 1.8 percent.

The New York Stock Exchange halted trading for 3 1/2 hours because

of a computer malfunction, forcing traders to route orders elsewhere.

The suspension, lasting from 11:32 a.m. to just after 3 p.m., dropped

the largest U.S. share platform out of the network of trading systems

that make up the American equity market.

Greece’s financial crisis and now China’s equity market slide have

diverted attention from U.S. economic data and the path of the Fed’s

monetary policy. The S&P 500 is down 4 percent since its May record.

assets across Australia, New Zealand and the United States. AAD

operates Dreamworld, WhiteWater World, SkyPoint Climb, d'Albora

Marinas, AMF and Kingpin bowling centres and Goodlife fitness centres

The recent pullback presents a speculative buying opportunity in a

fundamentally strong company. AAD has recently experienced heavy

volatility, but it appears oversold in the short-term and enjoys
