The market rebounded rapidly afterward, but the shockwave had long-lasting effects on trading dynamics. A report later described it as one of the most turbulent periods in the history of financial markets, certainly of the NYSE, but of markets generally the world over. It is interesting to note that flash crashes happen quite regularly, but measures installed after such events usually have little effect on preventing them later.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
