    THE Singapore Exchange (SGX) will flag shares undergoing consolidation and introduce reference prices for brokers to prevent trading mistakes, the market operator announced on Tuesday in response to error trades a week ago in the newly consolidated shares of New Silkroutes Group.

    Shares that will undergo consolidation are now marked with the "CE" label, for cum-entitlement, on SGX's stock price pages, while shares that have just been consolidated are marked "XE", for ex-entitlement.
