Another seven issues will join Phase III of the NYSE Hybrid Market this Thursday, Nov. 30, increasing the total number of activated issues to 258.

Here is the updated list of activated stocks, in .pdf and Excel formats.

Nov. 30 also is the birthday of Dick Clark (1929); Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul & Mary (1937); and Billy Idol (1955); and on that date in 1979, Pink Floyd released The Wall. A tip of the HybridTalk hat on Thursday to Dick Clark, pushing 80 and recovering from a stroke, still rockin'.

Can we get more transparency about the pending SEC approval process? Two months ago our group was ecstatic about the Hybrid Market, but now, with still so few names in the pilot pool, it's prohibitive to act upon the changes because these stocks represent only a small percentage of all the stocks we trade. It's like being a 10 year-old and finding out that Christmas will be delayed pending the approval of the SEC.

Evan -- The timing of your question is perfect. Word is that the SEC has approved our "omnibus" rule filing, and we're expecting approval of the remaining two rule filings (concerning stabilization requirements and Rule 127 trades) later this week. We'll post those approvals as soon as we have the documents.

Once the approvals are in hand, within days we will be announcing the activation of much larger groups of stocks into Phase III of the Hybrid Market.

We know it's been a long process, and we appreciate your patience. Tell your "10-year-old" that Santa is on the way.
