No one can time when a SEC suspension or halt will come. One thing is for sure, If a company is full of deceit and fraud a SEC suspension is always possible.
Why would the SEC suspend trading in a stock? The SEC may suspend trading in a stock when the Commission is of the opinion that a suspension is required to protect investors and the public interest. Circumstances that might lead the Commission to suspend trading include: • A lack of current, accurate, or adequate information about the company, for example, when a company is not current in its filings of periodic reports; • Questions about the accuracy of publicly available information, including in company press releases and reports, about the company’s current operational status, financial condition, or business transactions; • Questions about trading in the stock, including trading by insiders, potential market manipulation, and the ability to clear and settle transactions in the stock.
