What's the trigger point for a halt in trading? Are we set to come out of the chute on Tuesday right into a trading halt?

WELCOME EVERYONE TO THE RECESSION. Please remain standing as the chair has already been pulled out from under you. Your termination paperwork is on the desk up front. Take one page from each pile and staple them together. Exit to the left in single file. Thank you.
