Is freedom only for the wealthy?

Is it only those with large bank accounts and specialized investment knowledge that are "allowed" to make decisions, good or bad, about the money they've earned and where they will invest it?

Does our status as legal aged adults no longer qualify us to take responsibility for our choices and determine our future?

Limiting the instruments available to retail investors does not protect them. It limits diversification and the ability to allocate investments in a manner appropriate to our individual investment goals.

I do not believe regulators should be the deciding voice on what is and is not appropriate investments. Ensure proper disclosures to the investor should be required but not picking and choosing investments.

I oppose the restrictions trying to be imposed by FINRA related to FINRA Regulatory Notice #22-08.

I'm a fiscally responsible trader. Preventing people from openly trading due to irresponsible gamblers only harms people like me.

For sophisticated investors there is clearly a space inverse and levered products. Considering the very high trading volume in SQQQ and TQQQ there is clearly an active and liquid market for these products.

Inverse funds are one of a limited options to protect portfolios, also leveraged products can be a good option for short term investing.
