The Japanese stock exchange, including the Nikkei 225 index had to close for a day due to technical problems.
However, the statement issued by Japan Exchange Group did not provide any further details on the cause of the incident and did not specify when trading activity would resume.
Trading activities were also halted in Nagoya, Fukuoka and Sapporo.
Local authorities found no evidence that the problem was caused by a cyber attack.
"Trading of all stocks on the Tokyo Stock Exchange was delayed due to disruptions related to the delivery of market information," Japan Exchange Group said in a statement.
The Japanese stock market is the third largest in the world after New York and Shanghai.
The technical problem frustrated some investors who expected the market to soar again after the US Presidential debate resulted in the Nikkei 225 declining by 1.5% yesterday.
The delay was the first since 2018, when trading system problems caused some securities firms to fail to make purchases at the time.
The Nikkei 225 index covers shares of several large Japanese companies such as Honda, Nissan, Hitachi and Canon.
