I strongly oppose any new restrictions on certain investments! I (Not regulators) should be able to choose investments that are right for me and my family. I should have the freedom to make those decisions. Public investments should be available to EVERYONE, not just to certain groups that regulators deem as privileged enough to participate!
What are you trying to do anyway take people's rights away to buy stocks on the open market? Do you want to make it so just the insiders and the politicians get first choice and buyers like me get the left-over crumbs!

They are an inexpensive way to get an outsized return. My broker (Charles Schwab) is very good about warning me about the

Is Arbitrary and Unworkable: FINRAs definition of complex products is so broad, arbitrary and vague that it could ensnare a vast number of commonly used public securities. Tests or Upends Our Regulatory System: Under the
Its not necessary to add additional restrictions on leveraged investments.
THIS IS A SHAM AFTER 40 YRS OF INVESTING.NOW YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE RULE IN THE MIDLE OF THE GAME. THIS WILL MAKE ME STAY AWAY FROM YOUR GAMES. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO CHOSE THE INVESTMENT NOT THE REGULATORS.
