John Tierney Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

John Tierney
N/A

Frankly I dont understand the rationale behind this suggested change. I am definitely a small investor. Under my 401k rules I am prohibited from shorting stocks, nor may I purchase put options. The only methods through which I can possess some ability to protect myself in an all out bear market is /was through these equities.
If this suggested change becomes a reality I (and many others) will just have to grin and bare it when the market dives.
Finally, the very fact that this suggestion has been brought forward, is a subtle, though unstated, suggestion that we little guys dont know what the hell were doing. Youre wrong. So also is this suggested change.
