RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:WOWMy understanding is that they IIROC halts.
Doesn't mean I am right, but that is the what I have seen all the time.

Regulators can halt at any time if they choose. When market activity is unusual they call the issuer to discuss. Often nothing happens. Here, they asked for the press release.

On this one though I thought (not sure) Peter said because of investors calling him is why
he is making this NR.

A clarifying news release is then released, which clever CEOs use to convey a positive message. Halts don't occur unless news that will impact the market is to be released during market hours.

Usually they halt a stock if regulators ask
Takeactionnow wrote: Not necessarily. The regulators asked for it this time.

What a timely annoucnment.
Does this mean that any time we have a sell-off, he will come
in with a NR and help the stock?
