Act No. 2581 Section 8

Section 8

SEC. 8. This Act shall not apply to the holder of any speculative security who is not the issuer thereof, nor to the person who has acquired the same for his own account in the usual and ordinary course of business and not for the direct or indirect promotion of any enterprise or scheme within the purview of this Act, unless such possession is in good faith. Repeated and successive sales of any such speculative securities shall be prima facie evidence that the claim of ownership is not bona fide, but is a mere shift, device or plot to evade the provisions of this Act. Such speculators shall incur the penalty provided for in section seven of this Act.
