Shares in Singapore’s third-largest bank by assets slumped as much as 6.6% in early trading amid thin volume but quickly reversed that loss. Four traders said that they suspect the slump was due to a trading error. The stock rose 0.4% as of 3:20 p.m. in local time, adding to its yearly gain of about 4.6% as of Tuesday’s close.
The brief plunge in UOB’s shares brought back memories of haphazard spree of sell orders that caused a $41 billion crash in shares of Jardine Matheson Holdings Ltd., the flagship investment firm of a 186-year-old conglomerate, earlier this year. “No request to cancel the trades was received and the trades were upheld,” Carolyn Lim, a spokeswoman at the exchange said by email. Trades involving 80,000 UOB shares were put through this morning between S$24.00 and S$25.69 during continuous trading, Lim said.© 2019 Bloomberg L.P.
