Not quite. They can suspend trading until they find a "fix" to appease the traders. This is not uncommon. Greece was the most recent country to do this and it worked for them. Many countries suspend short trading in times of crises and this halts the traders from taking advantage of severe corrections from attenuating the fall.
I started here with nothing and still have most of it left.

I have a post here somewhere where I discussed this same question. I cannot remember the exact figures but the gist of it was that I was holding onto CML as my only stock. I kept selling at dips and rumors of dips then buying back in at mostly higher prices.
Had I stayed in, I would have made 1300% over 4 years. I landed up with 300% instead. :wall:

A post on an investment forum in the UK last week:
\\I experienced the worst possible reaction to falling equity markets in 1974, when a bank manager told me that his father was thinking of throwing in the towel when market sentiment and prices were on their knees. Despite every logical argument I could muster for him, in the hope of helping him stop his father cashing in after 50%+ falls from the peak, cash in is what he did, and I was so sad for him when the market doubled in the first half of 1975.

I hope current investors on this forum will remember that story if they ever feel the need to bale out through despair, only to watch their unloved assets soar in price within the next year or two.\\


An interesting read posted today.
