With the SEC's approval of Nasdaq's new $5 million listing rule now frozen, the fight over small-company delisting is wide open. In Episode 103 of SEC Roundup, we welcome Small Public Company Coalition president Marc Indeglia and former SEC Chief Economist Professor Craig Lewis to explain the ”delisting cliff.” Nasdaq's rule would suspend any company that spends 30 days below $5 million in market value — with no period to cure the problem and no pause on trading while it appeals. Professor Lewis reviewed 20 years of data: of the companies the rule would have cut, 78% later recovered. The Coalition has petitioned the SEC to set it aside.
