According to @StockMKTNewz, citing the Wall Street Journal, Nasdaq is seeking to tighten its listing rules for small Chinese stocks (WSJ via @StockMKTNewz). The same source reports that the NYSE proposed a new rule requiring companies principally operating in China, including Hong Kong and Macau, to raise at least $25 million in an IPO to list on Nasdaq, among other changes (WSJ via @StockMKTNewz). For traders, this means China-based IPOs below $25 million would not qualify for a Nasdaq listing if the proposal is implemented, so monitoring the near-term IPO calendar for China-based issuers and potential deal sizing changes is warranted (WSJ via @StockMKTNewz).

According to ZachXBT, a detailed report on a cryptocurrency exploit exceeding $25 million is scheduled for release next week. The intention is to publish the findings before the year ends, potentially hindering the exploiter's ability to enjoy the holiday season. This report could have significant implications for affected parties and traders monitoring security vulnerabilities.
