Date: 12/16/1999 4:47 PM Subject: Proposed Regulation FD I strongly favor Proposed Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure), which would require businesses to make disclosures to the public at large, not just selected individuals. As an individual investor who trades over the internet, I rely on having the most up-to-date information I can possibly acquire. If businesses are making disclosures to selective institutions or individuals before making public disclosure, my ability to invest effectively is greatly hampered.
