The New York Stock Exchange will temporarily close its trading floors and switch to all-electronic trading beginning when markets open next Monday amid the novel coronavirus outbreak.
"Trading and regulatory oversight of all NYSE-listed securities will continue without interruption," its operator, Intercontinental Exchange, Inc., said in a statement Wednesday.
The facilities that will be closed include the equities trading floors in New York and San Francisco.
"While we are taking the precautionary step of closing the trading floors, we continue to firmly believe the markets should remain open and accessible to investors," Stacey Cunningham, the president of the New York Stock Exchange, said in a statement. "All NYSE markets will continue to operate under normal trading hours despite the closure of the trading floors."
