Abdi Media – a simultaneous review of official websites and real-time global financial markets shows that the rumor about a “90-hour shutdown of the U.S. stock market” is not true and is fake.
While in recent hours some social media accounts had claimed that U.S. financial markets were shut down, a direct review of live data from reputable financial outlets such as CNN Business, Reuters, CNBC, and Bloomberg shows that U.S. markets are still active and trading normally continues.
Major indices, including the Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and S&P 500, are also trading in positive territory, and no official announcement has been issued by the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), Nasdaq, or U.S. financial regulators regarding an emergency suspension of trading.
If an emergency shutdown of U.S. markets were to occur, it would immediately become a top headline across all global financial media, and trading systems would also halt—an event that has not happened at present.
This rumor is part of a psychological warfare environment and fake news surrounding recent regional tensions and developments related to Iran and the Strait of Hormuz, and serves the interests of intelligence actors.
