I oppose the FINRA proposed rule 22-08. Leveraged and inverse securities are, and will probably remain, a small portion of the market and do not represent a particular danger to individuals or the market as a whole. There are so many predatory, unfair, and anti-competitive practices in the market today, why is FINRA wasting its time on this one?
