For current restriction policies or reasons, contacting Charles Schwab directly

I've spoken with them about SIMO being on this list a few times. They can explain that it means the stock (not the company) exhibits some type of irregular activity, but they can't give any examples or say what it is that placed SIMO on the list, and they have no idea when it will come off the list.

They say the list of stocks restricted in this way has grown tremendously in the past month. It sounds like somone in compliance is going a bit nutso.


Interestingly, I can sell SIMO using the web interface, and I can trade options, but if I want to buy SIMO I gotta place the order through a broker. I have no idea what that extra step accomplishes in terms of reducing SIMO's irregular trading pattern, because, well, they won't tell us customers what trading pattern caused the problem. It's a bit of a black box.
