I am opposed to limiting the investments of individuals. I believe it's an investor's right to have access to the entirety of markets without regulatory interference and restrictions.
Dear FINRA,
It is heart-breaking to hear that you are considering to restrict retail investors to trade leveraged ETFs. I strongly object any limitation that might be applied on trading leverage ETFs.
It is my personal right to use the financial instrument that I choose to invest my own money. The leverage should be available to all of the public, not just the rich and privileged. Any restriction
Finra, i strongly disagree ! no regulations on the public purchase of leveraged or inverse securities, period. that is ridiculous, thank you, nick brescia

There should not be any "special process" that I must follow, such as passing a test, before I can make my own investment choice.
I do not want or need these or any other
I am a self-directed and self-educated investor who got a late start building wealth due to many years of school. The use of leveraged ETFs has helped me and my family to build significant wealth, especially coming out of the pandemic, and has helped me become closer to financial security. It is no understatement to say that leveraged ETFs have taken a huge burden off my shoulders. I am aware
Inverse and leveraged etf's allow average investors to utilize options (calls or puts) in a simple and straight forward way (simple buy or sell orders). Option strategies can be quite complicated, even in their simplest forms, and prevent average retail investors from participating in these very important market-moving investments.
