New York City has issued a mandatory evacuation of Zone A, which includes CME Group's NYMEX World Headquarters and New York trading floor.

As a result, the New York trading floor will be closed on Monday, October 29. We will open all of our electronic markets at their regularly scheduled times on CME Globex and CME ClearPort, our online electronic platforms. We will continue to update cmegroup.com as additional information becomes available.

Futures still open regularly? Algos going to head to the ES to wreak havoc?

It was so unnecessary to close the US market because of Sandy. I only have time to day trade a few days a week and Sandy mucked up my schedule...darn!

Sometime they have technical problems. so we can not say directly it is unnecessary or necessary. I can not believe they was wrong. They have geniuses in each field. So I think their decision is the best.
