According to spaceflightnow.com, the rocket requires clear skies with no precipitation. Also, the launch window is very specifically linked to the orbit of the iss.

The latest weather report calls for thunderstorms and a 80% chance of rain.. The question I have, is if I short it will it pay 0 if there's a delay, or will it pay based on its value when its halted?

If you short it and it's halted, it will still pay at zero. So if you think that it will not happen, definitely short it now.

Liftoff!!!

Man I'm glad I decided to stay long!

...We've had troops in Japan and Germany for over 60 years. Does that mean we LOST WWII ?!?!?...

After liftoff, I watched this continue to trade and move up a quarter to 64.25. Think it will break 90 before they halt it?

I don't care, I stayed LONG! :)

OK pool

* When will they finally halt trading on JULES?

_ Before noon Sunday
_ Noon to 6PM Sunday
_ 6PM Sunday to 6AM Monday
_ 6AM to noon Monday
_ Noon to midnight Monday
_ Tuesday
_ After Tuesday but before Pesach

probably sometime monday. I *think* I heard the ppx crew does not work on the site on the weekend.

PS: Kahomono, by any chance, are you Jewish?

Just that your Peasach reference surprised me since it surprised me. (I too am Jewish myself)

I think it'll automatically halt when it reaches Tuesday, GMT. Although I may be wrong...

OK, then, campsoup1988, you may consider me a member of the same tribe.

My thought is that they will stop trading the stock about Monday or Tuesdsay, but will not delist it until Friday or even next week.

Hey Kahmono... head over to the old forums and set up a poll. Then give us a link.

the stock "JULES" has been halted as of an hour ago,
[19:04] <@Turner> JULES 66.00 halted :: last change 25 minutes, 15 seconds ago
[19:04] on a SUNDAY???

WOW They stopped it on a Sunday. OK. Very slightly impressed. It would have been better if they stopped it before the launch.

Huh, I was kinda right. It did stop around the deadline of 23:59 GMT.
