End of Mining Exchange in San Francisco Marks a Century End
Penny stocks flee the San Francisco Mining Exchange as it closes after 105 years. The institution once drew speculators with mining ventures and faded from $8 million annual volume at its peak to $725,000 in the first half of this year. The SEC accused the exchange of listing largely worthless securities and irregularities in 16 of 42 firms, prompting its closure.
