UPTICK RULE
In July of 2007, the SEC removed something called the uptick rule. The uptick rule is a securities trading rule used to regulate short selling in financial markets. The rule mandates that, when sold, a listed security must either be sold short at a price above the price at which the immediately preceding sale was affected or at the last sale price if it is higher than the last different price. This topic covers the latest news of calls to revive the uptick rule.
Uptick Rule is part of Business Exchange, suggested by
