Under U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules, the ban can be extended through Oct. 19. Investors are barred until Oct. 3 from betting on price declines for almost 980 stocks ranging from Citigroup Inc. to companies that get a fraction of their revenue from financial activities such as AutoNation Inc.
