John wrote: Halting trading on stocks is extremely dangerous because it exacerbates the pressures that caused the losses in the first place, meaning that the fall will be far more precipitous when trading begins again. If trading remains halted for more than a few days, then a secondary market will be created, where investors trade the losing stocks outside the stock market, and that can cause additional harm.

Imagine an investor has 10 stocks and gets a margin call. If 5 of them are no longer trading, then he has to make up all his margin trouble by selling the 5 that are still trading. So they go down even faster.

People who advocate messing with markets usually don't see the unintended side-effects of their plan.

I wonder if the same issues apply to the NY Stock Exchange,
which halted trading half an hour ago.

Best discussion I've seen on the "Greek problem" from my favorite philosopher, Slavoj Zizek...

So a far-left communist is rooting for the destruction of the
eurozone. What else is new?
