"Trading Suspensions

Trading suspensions are executed by the exchanges at the behest of the United States Security and Exchange Commission (SEC). The reasons can stem from concerns or investigations into a publicly traded company’s operations, financials, corporate structure, trading activity, filings or failure to meet certain regulatory requirements. Trading suspensions are meant to protect investors by pausing trading activity until serious questions about the company are addressed.

What Causes a Trading Suspension?

The SEC to protect investors in the underlying stock invokes trading suspensions while it investigates matters of serious concern, which may include stock manipulation, lack of current and accurate information and or instances of fraud. The company needs to formally answer and address said concerns to the satisfaction of the regulators before shares resume trading. The SEC publicly lists the companies under trading suspension on their website www.sec.gov."
