Subject: Proposed rule FD

I am an individual investor, and find the selective disclosure of 
information which may affect share price to less than the general investment 
community to be inconsistent with established policies of fairness.
     
Therefore, I would like to see a ruling to cause publicly traded companies 
to disclose to not just to analysts, or to institutions, but to the entire 
investment community.
     
Selective disclosure smacks of insider information. Selective disclosure 
hurts people like myself, who feel more comfortable managing their own 
investments rather than handing over that management to a third party. 
Selective disclosure puts the individual investor at a marked competitive 
disadvantage. Please rule to resolve this unfair situation.
