My Dad who was in the Army Air Corp before it was the Air Force in WW2 ,served as selectmen in our Town E.Bridgewater MA, the Treasure of his men's club East Bridgewater Commercial Club and his group of friends that got together and pooled their money to make stock investments once a week would be outraged that this is even being considered since he fought so hard for Freedom 25 missions , had to fire bomb Japan., met and worked with the men on Enola Gay .This must not pass at least let us pretend it can happen for an ordinary Joe

I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds
and their risks.
Regulators should NOT 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.

We should all equal opportunity to invest regardless of financial ability or lack insight, we should not be restricted to invest in opportunities only afforded to wealthy and the ones making well above average incomes

I oppose limitations on my investments. I am understanding leveraged and inverse funds
and their risks. I do not needthesemeasures imposed on me.Leveraged and inverse funds areimportantto my investment strategies.

Don't restrict the access to full trading opportunities for retail traders

Its decentralized for a reason to keep the governments away!! Have you rich politions stolen enough money from the people!!! Leave us alone

Its interesting to see how FINRA favors "big money", who causes most of the chaos and wide market swings, over those of whom are considered the (retail investor). Every prospectus lists the risks associated with the particular stock or fund, stating "Investor beware", yet FINRA considers margin and option trading less riskier. Regulators tend to pick the "flavor of the day" to pick at and remove the retail investors ability to buy and sell without added bureaucracy. This is not a heathy direction to take.

Dear FINRA Regulators, Trading leveraged and inverse ETFs is far less risky than trading options, which only require a special signature with your broker. So why over-regulate these valuable products? There is a large market for these leveraged ETFs, and their accessibility is precisely what makes them more desirable than options. An investor will not trade leveraged ETFs if he is not comfortable with them, but so many of us are comfortable with them, and are ready to trade them, with full knowledge of how they move.

Don't stifle a new method of transacting value. Understand it, let progress come.

What gives the government the right to regulate a free market for what investing decisions are right for me and my family. A complete overreach of powers that will set growing distaste of government officials. Where is the regulation for insider trading at the political/congressional level? Why is that not a priority where they are privy to material, sensitive information. Where the small retail investor is not and rarely moves any needle. Completely unacceptable and grows the distrust in our government.
