Its probably got something to do with the Commonwealth Bank's friendly takeover. Read about it at http://www.afr.com.au/content/000308/banking/banking1.html

Subject: [sharechat] `Colonial Ltd announcement

Interesting announcement today regarding Australian insurer/finance company

Colonial Ltd asking the stock exchange to halt the trading of their shares until the

announcement due friday 10th 8.30am Melbourne time.Anyone have any ideas

what could be so important as to suspend trading .Their shares have been trading

around the $7.60ish with buyers today at $8.35 ,so assume the news will be positive.

Can't wait :)

Disclaimer :- I hold shares in Colonial
