In my opinion, it is almost comically clear that the only parties that will fight this Regulation are the ones who have something to lose--the full service brokers and the "independent" analysts that support them. Those of us who are private investors support the opening of these Disclosures. I certainly do! I have difficulty imagining anyone that is not a Full Service Brokerage house or an analyst, not supporting this legislation. Thank you for your time.
