tsunami as the Lehman Bros. collapse led to the biggest crisis in the Russian financial markets in a
decade.
Trading on the rouble-denominated Micex Stock Exchange was suspended indefinitely at 12:10 p.m.
Wednesday for the second consecutive day after its index plunged by 10 percent within an hour into
trading after wiping out a 7.6 percent gain at the opening.
Trading on Micex was suspended Tuesday as well after its index fell 17 percent in one day, the biggest
drop since the sovereign debt default by the Russian government and currency crash ten years ago.
