Member Assessments
The NASD amended Section 1, Schedule A to the NASD By-Laws to increase the credit against a member's annual gross income assessment from 62 to 67 percent for calendar year 1993. The credit will be reduced to 59 percent for 1994.
Because members have already paid their 1993 assessments with the 62 percent credit in effect, the increase to 67 percent will create a credit
I think this marks one of your last chances to be on the right side of the fight. On the one side you have the institutions that collapsed the entire economy back in 2008 and are looking to do it once again simply for their own greed, using ILLEGAL practices in the forms of float dilution via synthetic shares and PFOF routing to darkpools, and on the other side you have the retail players who are
I OPPOSE restrictions on my right to invest in public investments.
It is my money and therefore my choice on how to spend my money. If I wish to invest it, donate it, or spend it on frivolous things, so be it. The government has no right to dictate or "protect me" on my investment choices.
I find it particularly insulting that regulators want to curtail my choice in
I was made aware this morning of a potential change of policy regarding leveraged and inverse funds access. I am highly disappointed to hear this as I currently utilize both leveraged and inverse funds as part of my investing strategy, especially useful to me in this challenging market.
I don't understand what the back story is on why the FINRA is considering limitation or why this is
I wish to tell you in the strongest possible way that I am absolutely apposed to the government telling me or my family how to invest my hard earned money in public investments, especially inverse public securities. I have used inverse funds for years to protect my portfolio against major downturns like we are experiencing right now in the market. They are an important hedge against irrational
To price Americans out of investing instruments or to impose any measures that keep retail investors from accessing investment instruments is just about as un-American as it gets. Many investors, myself included, find leveraged and inverse ETFs as unique opportunities to obtain margin without needing a margin-enabled account or without taking on direct debt to invest in the stock market.

To Whom It May Concern:
I oppose adding undo burden on individual investors in relation to inverse and leveraged funds. Current disclosures are quite specific about the risks and intended timeframe of such investments -- almost forbiddingly so. As an individual investor, I have diverged from such guidance, but I feel sufficiently warned.
Individual investors will always make bad decisions. More
I am writing to express my opposition to regulations that would hinder my investment in public securities, such as leveraged and inverse funds. Leveraged and inverse funds have been important to my investment strategy in the past as both a protective hedge and for periodically seeking enhanced returns. I have educated myself on the risks involved with said securities. I know how to use them.
Leveraged ETFs is the way for us to capture the upside of the market on small investment amount that we own. We can not be satisfied with risk less or 5% investment return product which may not be sufficient for our need. Also at the time of lows of the market it would be major blow to our strategies.
Since we own small amount and we completely rely on our constant monthly income our risk is more
Several Comments on FINRA Notice #22-08: 1) I understand exactly what inverse and leveraged funds are and do not wish to be burdened by any type of special process that delays or restricts my ability to invest in such funds. 2) I can choose for myself what investments are right for me and do not want any regulations that would restrict my choice to do so in any way while potentially letting
