So on 2/28 at like 2:30 am, without any warning whatsoever, like not even a tiny bit of warning so that we could exit the positions . . . NYSE and NASDAQ halted all trading in the above stocks. See here https://www.nyse.com/trade-halt-current
It's now been six months. I'm short about $2600 of YNDX stock at $18.93. I'll be fine either way, even if they allow trading and it opens at $100, I lose $10,000 or so not life ending.
At the same time, I'd like to rid myself of this crap and not see it in my account every single day forever. Is anyone else in my position, where you're long or short a Russian ADR stock? Setting aside fantasies of the Ukraine war ending and sanctions being lifted, what do we do? Are the US government and/or the exchanges NASDAQ/NYSE going to give us any way to get out of these?
Wondering if anyone else is in the same boat. (And whether there's some secret way to get out of these that I didn't know about?)
