Y2K STOCK MARKET & SEC: Ooooooooh ================================================================= SEC Turns its Y2K Regulatory Activity up a Notch On October 23, 1997, buried on the bottom of page A4 of the Wall StreetJournal was a short article taken from the Dow Jones Newswire. Short but important. Entitled "SEC Says Companies Must Disclose Year 2000 Exposure", the article refers to a new move by a recently emboldened SEC to take a stronger stance on regulating the Y2K disclosures of corporations and mutual funds. The article is based directly on the testimony of Brian Lane, the SEC Director of Corporate Finance, to the Senate Banking Committee a few weeks ago. y2ktimebomb.com *NOW read this!!!!!*: garynorth.com Links to articles are after editorial. But, I would HIGHLY suggest you read editorial.
