SEC Extends Review Time for Nasdaq's Stock Delisting Rule
Published Date: 4/21/2026
Notice
Summary
The Nasdaq Stock Market wants to add a new rule letting them remove stocks if the SEC has already stopped their trading and Nasdaq thinks it’s the right move. The SEC is taking extra time—until June 4, 2026—to decide if this rule change should be approved. This affects companies listed on Nasdaq and could speed up how problem stocks get handled, but no direct money changes are announced yet.

Nasdaq can delist SEC‑suspended stocks
On February 20, 2026, Nasdaq filed a proposal (IM-5101-4) to let Nasdaq delist a security when the SEC has already suspended trading and Nasdaq decides delisting is appropriate and in the public interest. The SEC has set June 4, 2026, as the date by which it will act on that proposed rule change.
