This is one I don't remember. Indeed this morning the futures are frozen at a projected 5% loss. Has this actually happened to FUTURES before since the stop mechanism has been instituted ? When the market opens and the futures indicate a loss of more than 5% do they let the market trade and then immediately shut it off as soon as the 5% is triggered ?

Europe markets are down 7%. Do they stop trading those markets like the US markets ?
