March 04, 2007 - This period has proven to be a difficult time on Wall Street. The people paying the highest price for stock declines reside not in million dollar apartments in Manhattan but on Main Street, USA. Main Streeters always pay the biggest price when stocks decline. Some pay the price with eyes wide open, i.e. they were told all the truth all the time by their stockbroker and brokerage. They were put in suitable investments tailored to their individual life circumstances. They were told and understood the risks of investing during difficult times. They were provided a 3, 5, and 10 year written plan of action by their investment pro. Armed with full, complete, accurate information grounded on a solid foundation, these investors have nothing to complain about when markets fall. But….
But… what if they weren’t told all the truth, all the time? What if they were not suitable for investments? What if the broker and firm were negligent or failed to tell them important facts about investment products? What if the broker failed to follow simple instructions or failed to provide the oversight and supervision that accounts require? What if the investor’s portfolio (big or small) was not diversified into various sectors enabling the Main Streeter to withstand market declines and corrections? In short, what happens if the Main Streeter was burned? It happens each day.
In 2006 burned investors filed one new securities arbitration case every two hours of every day with the primary regulator of the securities industry. (Source: NASDR).
“This represents a small fraction of cases that should have been filed,” says Paul Young, tagged as “Mr. Securities Arbitration” and an 18+-year veteran advocate for burned investors. His Securities Arbitration Group represents burned investors in securities arbitration and mediation in cases nationwide. “I am convinced that for every case filed another ten or twelve are not. Why? Lack of information about the excellent pathway to recovery securities arbitration provides added to both fear and embarrassment which combine to create a choking inertia.”
Securities arbitration represents the best friend of the burned investor. And it works.
