On February 24, 2010, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that it adopted an alternative uptick rule as part of the SEC’s continuing efforts to increase regulatory oversight over short selling. The vote in favor of the new uptick rule was 3-2, and was divided along party lines. The uptick rule had been eliminated in July 2007.
