Down to -10.50% That was... fast

  Dropped another 3% in the 4 minutes since you posted.

  Now -12.5%... will trading cease if it drops 13% as Zygna did on Friday?
  • nikcub 14y ago
    trading doesn't cease just because a stock drops. they ceased on Zynga because the bots got out of hand and caused a flash crash. these safety measures have been in place since the big flash crash of a few years ago. FB looks more like an orderly sell off

      ...until it breaks 30.

    that's 10% in five minutes, but it doesn't count moves while the market is closed.
  • joezydeco 14y ago
    It's passed -13% and still trading. Does the breaker only apply to stocks that are below some threshold value? Of is FB getting an exemption?

      NASDAQ's rule is a 10% drop within 5 minutes, which FB hasn't hit.
