Halts were up quite a bit this week from last week, the 5 day trailing average was in the 91st percentile of all days since August 2019. Last Friday was only in the 65th percentile. It has now been 193 days (77.2% of a trading year) since total halts started seeing a significant increase in their levels over the 4 year average value.
Ok, now on to my regular post...
Disclaimer due to recent issues in relation to brigading. I am simply attempting to provide a metric for market wide volatility as a possible alternative to other volatility indices such as VIX. I will talk about quite a few tickers other than GME, but that is simply an attempt to comment on odd or interesting behavior from those stocks that didn't match with the average. I am not advocating for or against any of those other tickers, simply attempting to give data and context for that data. I originally started looking at halt data when I got curious about which other stocks halted between Jan 27 and Jan 29 of 2021 to see if I could find a pattern or some interesting data that might be useful down the line.
For anyone wondering what use it is to have a volatility index or why an alternative to VIX could be useful, this comment chain from my post on December 26th 2022 gives a pretty good ELIA. Also, there has been a lot of chatter on and off over the last few years about VIX and I for one would love to have an alternative that it can just be compared to since more data is always better IMO.

gonna stick with the data tag again this week.

[An analysis of every stock that had an LULD halt between Jan 27 and Jan 29 of last year. (posted June 15)](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/vcsnj2/an_analysis_of_every_stock_that_had_an_luld_halt/)
>Adding a further TLDR per mod request; LULD halts are volatility halts on a specific ticker that halts trading for a minimum of 5 minutes on that ticker. Several months ago I realized that the NYSE records all the halts that happen every trading day and save them on a website. So knowing this, I wondered if I could possibly find other tickers that had a significant number of halts between Jan 27 and Jan 29 of last year. When I looked at the data, I found a lot of the usual suspects and a few other tickers that hadn't really been discussed previously very much as possible swap basket stocks. I also found that, while the volume of halts did spike in that period last year, the highest period by far in the available data was in mid March 2020. So I theorized that halts are likely correlated to market volatility and may provide an alternative metric to VIX. There has also been some odd activity with resume times for some halts going significantly into after hours (halts typically resume by 16:00:01 EST at the latest).
Ok, now that that is out of the way, I have continued monitoring the [NYSE page that tracks halts](https://www.nyse.com/trade-halt-current). [On 10/26, there was an issue where the final halt wasn't showing up on the .csv file.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/ye7slk/halts_back_down_10_halts_on_9_tickers_down_from/) There were halts going into market close Tuesday, Thursday and Today this week, but the latest resume was on Tuesday when it didn't resume until 16:00:02 which is later than most days, but not entirely abnormal either.
There were 6 tickers with more than 10 halts this week, all of them had more than 10 halts in a single day, but 2 of them are associated with the same company. The tickers with more than 10 halts this week were ACON (Aclarion, Inc), CNTG (Centogene N.V.), FRC (First Republic Bank), FRC.PRI (A different class of stock from First Republic), PCTTU (PureCycle Technologies), and TOP (TOP financial Group Limited.
ACON had 10 halts on Monday and did not halt on any other day this week. They appear to be a Biotech company of some kind and seem to have published some good news on Monday, which caused them to go from a closing price of $0.7399 last Friday to a high of $2.37 on Monday, but it closed around the same point it opened and has fallen for the rest of the week back down to a close of $0.6332. They appear to not be fully compliant with continued listing requirements due to lack of financial filings.
CNTG had 11 halts on Tuesday and did not halt any other day this week. They also appear to be a Biotech company of some kind and they released some sort of new tool earlier this week. They went from a close at $0.74 on Monday to a high of $2.52 on Tuesday, they have fallen for the rest of the week back down to a close of $0.81 today. They also appear to have become not fully compliant with continued listing requirements as of today.
FRC had 47 halts spread between Tuesday and Today, while FRC.PRI had 11 halts on Wednesday and today. We all know how First Republic is in major trouble, so I don't think I need to give much more detail here.
PCTTU appears to be an Industrial company that produces Pollution and treatment controls. They had 18 halts on Wednesday and did not halt any other day this week. They don't seem to have very high trading volume (max daily volume this week was 1.1k shares). The listed price range for Wednesday doesn't seem like it should have caused halts, but it may have bugged out somewhat with only 401 shares traded in the entire day.
TOP is a brokerage based out of Hong Kong. They seem to have posted financial results that honestly don't seem accurate to me (way too good to be true), but that was a few months ago, so I don't know what was going on this week but they had 43 halts between yesterday and today. They closed at $6.72 on Wednesday and then closed at $20.00 yesterday (+197.62%) before rocketing to a high of $256.44 today (+1182.2%). They closed at $108.21 (+441.05%) today.
The daily, 5 day, and 20 day total halts are a simple sum (sum the tickers from the data for the daily, sum the daily totals for the multi day totals).
The Daily tickers with halts, 5 day total tickers with halts, and 20 day total tickers with halts only count any individual ticker once. If a ticker has 5 halts in one day, it still only counts as 1 ticker that day. If a ticker halts 3 different days it only counts as ticker in the 5 or 20 day totals. All of the percentages are actually percentiles and are calculated as percentile=100\*(1-x/n) where x is the number of days with an equal or higher number of halts than the day being looked at and n is the number of days in the data (891 this week).
I am also including a table giving the cutoff values for 70th, 80th and 90th percentiles in total and unique halts for the daily, 5 day, 20 day, and 50 day averages. This value will change from week to week and be applied retroactively to all past dates.

It has been 193 trading days since activity spiked from 16 halts on 14 tickers on July 27 to 75 halts on 20 tickers on July 28. Just 2 trading days later (August 2) total halts broke 100 for the 4th time in my dataset (116 halts on 28 ticker on August 2).
No tickers that halted between Jan 22 and Feb 2 of 2021 had any halts this week. Here is the table with the halts on GME and the Headphone stock during the sneeze these two tickers get mentioned every week for obvious reasons on GME, but Headphone actually had more total halts and only 1 less day in a row with halts than we did.

Here are the currently active tracking charts that I post and update every week. The last of the following charts (Ratio of total halts to unique halts) uses a simple sum of unique daily halts so it can double count the same ticker if it halted multiple days in that period, this is the only point in any of my calculations where 2 different halts on the same ticker actually count as 2 halts and not a single unique ticker halting, it still won't count multiple halts in a single day as separate halts, but a ticker like MWG would show 3 unique halts this week even though it had more halts than that on 2 of the three days it had halts.

GME is still the only true play, I am not suggesting that anyone invest in other companies, I am simply tracking market halts as a metric for volatility.
Here are the plots for each full calendar year, as well as the 2 other periods where total halts broke 100 in a single day
