Original Message Adopting new, U.S. market-wide circuit breakers to halt precipitous drops in individual stocks is "a done deal," a source said Tuesday, five days after a severe market plunge rattled investors and perplexed regulators.

The circuit breakers would likely trip when individual stocks fell by a set amount in a set time frame.

The Securities and Exchange Commission hosted exchange heads at a meeting Monday, and said afterward the parties agreed to a framework that would strengthen circuit breakers.
