Sometimes people think tooooo much... personally I think its the fairest way... not necessarily the smartest in all cases. The halt can be a means of bringing more attention to the news..especially if its stellar... I just don't think we need a halt for every news report.. as I would point to yesterdays late day release. Good, not 'Stellar" news. Good enough for after market...not good enough for a "halt".

Sometimes the stock price gaps up after a halt on anticipation and newsworthieness brought on by the halt itself... but whatever way its done.. within the day the price is where it belongs..

I personally believe that Richard Nemis knows exactly what news warrants a halt and if hole 5 needs one, we'll see it.. and I'm good with that. I think we're moving up a bit today.. partly on the news release and partly on anticipation of the Hole 5 assay report.
