Hmmmmm..... SS, why did they wait till after the close?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1595848


good question. maybe not to create too much abrupt moves on the open session.
 Quoting: Strongman Shelford


It is official policy to wait until the close of trading to release news which may create 'volatility'

Every recent downgrade has been released after hours

This is also why the FDIC always announces the banks which are folding after the close on a Friday, before the weekend

By the time the markets re-open, they hope the desks in Hong Kong and London can do the required damage control
