Here comes a huge mess:

NASDAQ Operations has recently updated the status of the following NASDAQ Market System(s) to the NASDAQ Trader website:

As an update to this morning’s problem, NASDAQ®, in coordination with other exchanges and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), has decided on own its motion, to break any trades in the list of securities executed between 9:19:42 a.m. and 9:40:00 a.m., ET, that executed more than 15% away from the prior close and subject to further assessment with respect to material news disseminated after 4:00 p.m., ET, yesterday. The list of securities affected is available on NASDAQ's website via the latest Head Trader Alert.
 
This isn't the first time they pulled this BS, I don't understand why anyone would trade this market, at least the NYSE specialist is forced to make good on trades!

I hope no one got burned too bad!
