Why would the SEC suspend trading of
a stock when it knows that such action
will hurt current shareholders?
The SEC suspends trading in a security when it is
of the opinion that the suspension is required in the
public interest and to protect investors. Because a
suspension often causes a dramatic decline in the price
of the security, the SEC suspends trading only when
it believes that the public may be making investment
decisions based on a lack of information, or false or
misleading information. A suspension may prevent
potential investors from being victimized by a fraud.
