Can someone help me understand the dynamics behind why this stock is not trading. My understanding is that the exchange halts trading in a stock when there is a mismatch of orders. In this case, presumably an overwhelming deluge of sell orders. But I was under the understanding that these halts were usually temporary in nature -- like hours or maybe days. This one has been on for some time now. Would appreciate info on what needs to happen before trading can begin again. Thanks in advance.
