NASDAQ OMX Iceland opened for equity trading again on Tuesday October 14 after a three-day suspension that started on October 8. The decision to suspend equity trading came in the wake of extreme market turmoil and the government's decision to take over Iceland's three major banks. During this period, trading in fixed income has continued as usual.
Regarding the Icelandic index I15, please note that on Monday, OMX index values were revised and the share of the three banks in the I15 index was set to zero. The reason is that there is no trading currently to provide a true market price for these stocks.
Trading remains halted in financial stocks based on the October 6 ruling by the Icelandic Financial Supervisory Authority.
