SEC short-selling ban to expire Wednesday night
Fri Oct 3, 2008 5:34pm EDT
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission announced on Friday its ban on financial stock short-selling will expire at 11:59 p.m. ET on Wednesday, October 8.
Earlier in the week, the SEC said the ban would expire three business days after a $700 billion federal bailout bill was enacted by Congress. The emergency ban was part of a series of government measures designed to restore confidence in battered markets and the ailing financial system.
“Thus, it should be understood that when pro-US figures use the term, 'rules-based international order,' they are not referring to anything analogous to the rule of law. Quite the opposite, they are using Orwellian language to describe a system in which essentially no rules can be established and/or observed, given that the dominant state has the prerogative to violate and/or rewrite “rules” at its whim.” Aaron Good, American Exception
