"Why does the SEC allow this"

I guess because on the face of it everything is legal and well-covered with the appropriate legalese. Nobody holds a gun to these CEO's heads to do these financings. I guess the CEO's actually see money coming into THEIR pockets, they can't lose. Just their shareholders can lose.

Certainly a 'buyer beware' situation. 'Tradeable action' is certainly there but odds are against long term buy/hold success.
