CH637: Status Report and Paris Vacation
The NYSE Index fell a few points in the aftermath of the announcement of the glitches during the use of the Exchange's Electronic Platform.
Rumours of an attack on the Platform surfaced somewhere on the internet. While the Exchange did everything it could to debunk the rumour, many people believed it.
Same as the Exchange, the US Military couldn't completely hide the Yellow Fever attack on its medical centre in Washington.
The attack on the Walter Reed Medical Centre and the three previous attacks in London made people believe an attack on the NYSE's Electronic Platform really did happen.
This caused widespread panic amongst the public of continuous attacks on the major Western powers, the US and the UK.
