'Technical Issues' Halt NYSE Trading, Twitter Users Respond

Story is developing. Here's the best tweets we've seen so far from the Twittersphere:

@NYSE tweeted at 12:28 pm ET these three updates regarding the halt of trading, which occurred at 11:32 am ET:

(1 of 3) The issue we are experiencing is an internal technical issue and is not the result of a cyber breach.

— NYSE (@NYSE) July 8, 2015

(2 of 3) We chose to suspend trading on NYSE to avoid problems arising from our technical issue.

— NYSE (@NYSE) July 8, 2015

(3 of 3) NYSE-listed securities continue to trade unaffected on other market centers.

Not just #United . A system-wide halt at the @NYSE will do little to bolster already sagging retail segment confidence in financial markets.
