Mide, have you contacted IR re: reason for today's halt?

(per your post 17685):Co indicated THEIR pref for a.m. PR "if they have any say in the matter"---and we finally get the news @ almost 2 CST---after an a.m. halt for pending news. (If) Co not timing the actual release today, who was? Do you think that because this has been going on since 12/30, someone (AMEX?) had to do some verification of today's PR before it was released? It's just so perplexing because as noted by many this aft., this news hardly seemed worthy of a halt.

Further, post #22264 states "The most common regulatory halt and delay happen when a company has pending news that may affect the security’s price (a "news pending" halt or delay). By halting or delaying trading, market participants can have time to assess the impact of the news."

Today we had no "assess the impact of the news" because we were halted w/o any news issued---and resumed tdg right after news released almost 4 hrs later.
