It will be official by market open - all market makers, whether working the underlying or derivatives thereof - will be exempt from the short-selling ban. It took a couple of knee-breaking CEOs from Chicago to fly to HQ and explain to the morons manning the SEC that they were about to cause a global market lockup - but it's done.

It boggles the mind to think the people supposedly responsible for regulating the markets could be so clueless...truly frightening.
