So i asked what happened. The TMX gave the trading halt it sends information directly to BB without a data vendor in between.

**25JUL2013**

15:17:08 STROEF : hi cuu cn was trading halted today from 1320-1400 Central European Time. Where did this information come from? What is the data vendor which supplied this info? Im trying to figure this out why Bloomberg said it was halted

15:17:09 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : Thank you for using Bloomberg HELP! A live representative will assist you shortly. Please feel free to provide us with additional information regarding your inquiry in the meantime.

15:17:34 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : Hello, our data analysts are looking into your inquiry.

15:18:35 STROEF : The IRROC (Regulatory Organisation Canada) never presented a halt. Ive got a jpeg if needed.

15:20:51 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : Please bear with us we are still looking into this.

15:21:02 STROEVE & LEMBERGER : ok thank you 15:23:30 STROEVE & LEMBERGER : cuu halt.jpg [9407K]

15:23:54 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : Thank you very much.

15:24:59 STROEF : cuu halt 1.jpg [94713K]

15:25:07 STROEF : better quality 15:31:10 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : Thank you once again. One moment while we check.

15:34:37 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : Strove & Lemberger, the best solution would be to check this with the exchange.

15:35:22 STROEF : well Bloomberg gets its feed directly from the exchange or from a data vandor?

15:35:35 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : From the exchange.

15:36:01 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : In this case I would need to ask you about the exchange ticker as CN is the composite ticker.

15:36:51 STROEVE & LEMBERGER : so this information can is influenced by BB self it is just published in your system

15:36:59 STROEVE & LEMBERGER : can = cant

15:37:58 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : Can you please clarify this question? Thanks.

15:38:42 STROEF : well information like trading halted is automatically published. This is not manually entered in the BB system right

15:40:48 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : That is correct. All the market statuses for example are sent by us, once again, via feed from the exchanges

15:41:02 BLOOMBERG HELP DESK : So this information is not manually entered.

15:41:11 STROEF : ok thanks
