We continued to see very solid performance on all days and pairs, with the notable exception of a one-day decline due to data issues with a specific asset. We've taken steps to avoid these types of problems in the near term by delisting assets with a high risk of data issues, and will be adding them back as we refine our infrastructure.)*
