Date: 04/27/2000 9:43 PM Subject: "Proposed Regulation FD: File No.57-31-99" I believe selective disclosure is tantamount to unfair trade practice and should be dealt with in a similar manner. The individual share owners have a right to know what their companies are doing as well as how they are doing it. If a Wall street analyst is also a share holder then he deserves all the information available. If he is only an analyst, he does not deserve to be the recipient of privileged information. Please take action to level the playing field. If it weren't for the individual share holders, (both as individuals and as participants in mutual funds), there would be little reason for the existence of analysts. Respectfully, Jonathan H.
