A flash crash is an extremely fast fall in the price of one or more assets, often caused by a trading mistake.
US banking giant Citigroup has said that one of its traders made an error in the so-called stock market "flash crash" in Europe on Monday.
Sweden's benchmark Stockholm OMX 30 share index was one of the hardest hit, falling by 8% at one point, before recovering most of those losses to end the day 1.87% lower. In August 2012, a computer-trading glitch at US financial services firm Knight Capital caused a major stock market disruption, costing the company around $440m.
