J-COM erroneous-order incident
In December 2005, a Mizuho Securities employee entered an incorrect sell order for J-COM shares on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. A fault in the exchange’s computer system prevented the order from being canceled, leading to an approximately ¥40.7 billion loss. Mizuho Securities later obtained an approximately ¥10.7 billion damages award in litigation against the exchange.
