Hurricane Sandy‘s winds and rains subsided today, and the New York Stock Exchange announced it will open for normal operations on Wednesday.   This was the first time since 1888 that weather shut down stock trading for two days. NYSE Euronext said trading will resume for all U.S. equities, bonds, options and derivatives markets on — perhaps fittingly — Halloween. Investors have been grappling with a volatile earning season as it is, and now are dealing with uncertainty as they wait for reliable estimates of the damage caused by the storm. Read more: ABC News’ coverage of Hurricane Sandy “Our building and systems were not damaged and our people have been working diligently to ensure that we have a smooth opening tomorrow,” said Duncan Niederauer, the CEO of NYSE Euronext, in a statement.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
