A self-directed individual retirement account (IRA) is an IRA held by a custodian that allows investment in a broader set of assets than most IRA custodians permit. Custodians for self-directed IRAs may allow investors to invest retirement funds in “alternative assets” that have unique risks, including a lack of information and liquidity—and the risk of fraud.
The Liquidity Risk Management section of the 2022 Report on FINRA’s Risk Monitoring and Examination Activities (the Report) informs member firms’ compliance programs by providing annual insights from FINRA’s ongoing regulatory operations, including (1) relevant regulatory obligations and related considerations, (2) exam findings and effective practices, and (3) additional resources.
Banning traders from buying or trading these ETF's while they are already holding them would cause catastrophic damage to most traders who are currently in positions they cannot exit. This is something that needs MUCH more time to be considered a good plan.
Please do not limit the ability of investors to participate in their own financial and investment decisions. It is always clear that investment carries risk, and leveraged and inverse funds are no different. I strongly oppose any limitation on investors ability to determine their own investment plan.

These regulations should have been in place 30 years ago. It is absurd to me that it took the public gaining awareness of short manipulation, and planned bankruptcy of many great companies by Hedge Funds to even get this on the table.
Used inverse ETF SDS for 10 years & plan to leave alone until market crashes & regain losses! My main investment! Obviously I oppose ANY limitation on my investment at this point since holding for the long term to regain $$$$s !!!!!
I question your intent to control my actions with investments.
There are voting restrictions, family planning restrictions AND now some regulator is considering making investment choices FOR ME. Do I know what I am investing in?
GET OUT OF MY PORTFOLIO CHOICES.
After taxes, the balance is MY money. It is MY decision what to do with it and NO ONE ELSEs.
I bear the risk. If you are going to impose rules on our investment choices, then you also need to cover our resultant losses. Are you planning to do that?
I think changing the way things are done now to the way you plan on doing will hurt us small investors more then you realize. Things were gong along smoothly enough up to now and this change will just muddy up things.
