The Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) has closed for the day, 26 minutes early at 12.04 p.m. today (Oct 03) due to the S&P SL20 index dropping over 5% from the previous close.

 

According to the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Sri Lanka, if the S&P SL20 index falls by more than 5% from the previous trading day, daily trading will be suspended for a period of 30 minutes.
