Ot to GVT,

I've often wondered about the use of the term "Quiet Period" prior to earnings announcements.

I understand that the Securities Act prescribes a specific "quiet period" before and after an IPO or Secondary by a company.

I've been unable to find any precise definition of the so called "quiet period" prior to earnings.

Can you shed any light? Is this voluntary? Up to each company to decide what, if any quiet period they'll self impose? A SEC regulation? Safe Harbour guideline?

Or just something for which no one any longer knows the reason why?

Thanks,
Ian.
