I have one solution the SEC could implement , this being similar to the FDIC which charges the banks a fee to guarantee deposits. The SEC sets up a trust fund to guarantee that shareholders in new issues get at least 50% back on their original investment. For example, they could charge a company 25 cents/ share for each new share. If the IPO is for $10, the brokers may sell it for $20 on the first day- so 25 cents is "peanuts" It would also constrain companies from issuing far more shares than needed or their income can support. If the company assets ever dropped to $5/sh, they would have to liquidate and return the $5 to shareholders. This would also give the SEC the money needed to do better job. ( Should be able to find one or 2 Congressmen willing to vote on this, the others will be out of town until after the Elections). Sig
