take place while a stock is halted (generally during week-ends) so that everyone has the same info before trading resume. So.... the analogy works more with current than with proposed new HSX regime.

DMac, the halt timing for new wide releases is the one new feature that I dislike much, and more. Otherwise, I consider the other proposals as most welcome improvements, in particular the "initial shares available at IPO" (six years ago, when I wondered out loud - I mean, on the board then called Misc - about the infinite number of shares, i was of course coldly received). 

Has HSX made a decision on this Saturday halt thing? I.e. have all the complaints against it been heard? {nm} secretstalker Nov 24, 10:28

I'm wondering the same. I'm starting to wonder if they even want to reconsider the issue? {nm} Rolling_Thunder Nov 24, 12:07

The decision was made with the Announcement. We realize there would be traders unhappy with change, but others who would welcome Antibody Nov 24, 13:33

Does HSX feel that the new halt time will greatly benefit them from a business perspective? Perhaps many of us aren't considering that. {nm} Rolling_Thunder Nov 24, 14:50

I'll stop playing if the halt time isn't changed back to sometime on Friday, preferably before 9pm EST. Rolling_Thunder Nov 25, 06:15

I want to join the list of unhappy traders. Please reconsider. Bringing it (back!) to Friday 9 pm EST would be a good compromise IMO. Can Diapason Nov 25, 05:05

I just don't see any real point at halting then or adjusting... you could just have stocks act like CX derivatives secretstalker Nov 25, 14:10

Because real markets are not open on weekends, period. Real earnings are reported on weekdays where there's also after hours trading. {nm} Antibody Nov 26, 10:02

Yeah those that get it wrong. No skill involved now. {nm} Vashta Nerada Nov 27, 10:17
