What it is
The exchange halts a stock around material announcements, while it verifies rumors, or when delisting grounds arise.
Common causes
Failing to answer an inquiry disclosure, embezzlement or breach-of-trust allegations, a disclaimer of audit opinion, or procedures such as mergers and splits.
What to keep in mind
A brief procedural halt for a stock split is very different from a months-long suspension during a listing eligibility review. Always read the stated reason.
Where to check it
Suspensions are announced by the exchange and the company discloses the reason. Trading cannot take place while it lasts, and it usually resumes through a single-price auction. If a review follows, the outcome can be an improvement period or delisting, so read through to the result filing.
