Aus,

re: "Is it possible we are entering a time period
where the retail investor is getting a bit
more respect and consideration?"

Yes it is. SEC Chairman Arthur Levitt pushed through rule FD against a huge amount of pressure from the brokerage community. Companies can no longer whisper material information to analysts and institutional investors.

It's a good thing, but could cause some uncertainty in the short term.
