The investigation stems from concerns that Knight lacked adequate internal controls to monitor its automated trading software. Consequently, on August 1, 2012, Knight experienced a technological glitch related to the installation of trading software. This glitch resulted in numerous erroneous orders in NYSE securities that went unstopped for over half an hour and cost the Company upwards of $440 million. Upon this news, shares of Knight stock fell 63% to a close of $2.59 on August 2, 2012.
