I disagree with the proposal to restrict access to leveraged or inverse funds for several reasons:
1. It is not the government's responsibility to tell me what I am capable of investing in. It is my money, my risk.
2. It is my responsibility to determine if an investment is right for me, and to understand benefits and risks.
3. it is not the government's role to assess or
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”) a proposed rule change to amend Section 4 of Schedule A to the FINRA By-Laws to: (1) revise the fee for the Regulatory Element of continuing education (“CE”); (2) establish the fee for individuals who elect to maintain their qualification following the termination
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) is currently considering regulation, which will restrict our rights to buy leveraged and inverse funds and dozens of other popular investments deemed to be complex. I wholeheartedly disapprove this type of regulation, as it could adversely affect market sentiment by only allowing a select few to take advantage of these leveraged and inverse funds
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST! This is absurd, I should have the right to invest my money the way I see fit without the interference of any kind of regulators. Public investing should be made available to the public, not just the privileged. This is completely biased and would affect people of color and other minorities! I shouldnt have to go through a special
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest in public investments. I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, including cryptocurrency
Hi FINRA, what were seeing in the stock market is unprecedented. 71 percent dark pool volume for AMC from the same people that have a short interest. This is unacceptable in any “free and fair market”. Short selling is a cancer on the back of the US financial system and has adverse effects on the rest of the world. We need more transparency from the “too big to fail” players in the market and
Dark Pools are called that because they remove the transparency of the trade. This is an open market so there shouldn’t market activity that’s suddenly invisible to the rest of market traders. There should be full transparency about shares being bought and sold at market prices. For shares that are shorted and subsequently misreported the financial fines should be proportionate to the real value
Dear FINRA,
Please do not remove my right to purchase leveraged ETFs. The general public should not be required to have special privileges to have access to these financial instruments. Although these are complex trading instruments, they pose no more risk than many other securities that already available to retail investors.
Regulations should not be made to 2X funds, especially those that are
To restrict small investors from trading is a crime in itself. As a disabled veteran, I would be greatly shamed to see these actions go through and see millions of people in my salary scale be unable to invest in Proshares products. Please do not do this, Let Americans trade at their own discretion. I (and my fellow investors) are more than capable of understanding how leveraged/inverse funds
I am fully aware of the risks and dangers of leveraged funds. I value the freedom to chose the public investments that I deem correct. I use these funds sparingly to mitigate risk or to correct an obvious to me, imbalance. I am strongly opposed to government regulation of free participation in these investment vehicles which have a way of teaching harsh lessons to the foolish. And hedged great
