Dear sirs,
     
It is extremely frustrating as an investor to see a stock run up or down 
on supposidly no new news.  Then several days have the information made 
available to the public.  If I have money invested in a company, why 
don't I have as much right to the timely information as brokers and 
analysts do?
     
My other frustration is with the delayed market quotes.  What purpose do 
they serve?  Since the real time quotes are available to brokers, why do 
I need to waste some of my valuable investment dollars to see them?
