The Fed and Congress together have conjured, and spent, $6,500,000,000,000 in two years. This coupled with inflation are devaluing the dollar.
FINRAs response? Take control of Crypto and block the exits.
Separately, FINRA is trying to prevent retail investors from trading downward during this decline and instead force them to lock their retirement monies in long. Only long. This is criminal.
Please allow investors to be in equal footing with institutions
Investing has helped me grow my portfolio at a young age, and removing complex investing strategies will make it harder for me to learn
I have not used leveraged funds but inverse funds are an important part of my investment strategy as protection against market downturns and also for selling options. Brokerage companies already issue appropriate warnings to their customers re: risks. Please do not restrict access to these funds.
The public has the right to choose their investments
Re: FINRA Ive Invested in the Markets for over 12yrs, Ive always appreciated the fact that I could Invest freely, make my own choices and decisions on what, where, Why & when I choose to Invest, Moreover, and based on the proliferation & numerous tools & Resources available to the Individual Retail Investor these days the case for the freedom of choice became even more compelling These same tools, like none other, have helped investors make Informed decisions, and at last Leveled the playing field btw Institut.
You should restrict political parties aka politicians instead of the little people.
I know your thinking of the big guys but remember the little guy too. I do my own investing and very happy doing so. I think things are fine just the way they are. I don't need a bunch of malarkey to screw things up for me. Thank you for listening to me and call if you would like to discuss. [REDACTED]
It's up to me to decide and educate myself on investments that I think are appropriate for my family. I do not want some regulator that is not accountable to me or my family making that decision for me.
