HI JIM. Good question. In a "free market" the objective is to allow free trading of stocks unrestricted until facts are known. The SEC says, I think we have a problem, but I am not sure,(innocent until proven guilty) as a result I cannot STOP trading this stock on a suspicion. So, let it trade, it is a free market. I think this is why the Canuck market took such flak from everyone when the "B" stock was allowed to trade during the time of Freeports DD and resultant 7 hole announcement. Why it is relegated to your "merican" pink slip system from your BB I don't know. If anyone knows please "do tell" ! the Chief

< sence the SEC let MINE trade again, isn't that the same as a seal of approval? > If not approval, then at least a pretty good sign. Its neither a good sign nor a seal of approval from the SEC since they are powerless to extend the halt. They can institute a new halt based on new reasons, but companies wisely seldom give them that opportunity (see #reply-3813172 for more details).
