ASX LTD shares ended 13.2% lower at A$51.03 on Tuesday after the exchange operator forecasted capital expenditure rising to A$200 million by 2027. The decline marks the worst single-day performance for ASX in Australia in more than two decades. Investors are penalizing ASX as repeated technology failures and rising regulatory costs threaten dividend stability.
