The market should be fair for all. Not just the super rich. Since I started investing 2 years ago, I have lost all confidence in the American stock exchange and once the amc story plays out, I will likely not continue. All the data points to illegal activity, yet it continues and has done for years. I never realized of corrupt the American system is, until of late. Many people should be in jail
I never realized that the "Stock Market" is controlled by the players themselves. Of course they will thwart and break the rules when the penalties and fines are SO miniscule contrasted with the profit they make by breaking 'the rules'. The Average Jane like me has no chance of advancing or even holding our ground against the machine that the US Gov't allows to run
The state of the United States financial markets is a disgrace in no small part due to egregious abuse of short selling. Skirting of the current rules and regulations is commonplace and the penalties of such behavior, even when caught, are laughable given the profitability of such behavior. Both the prevention of this criminal activity and bolstering of punishment for said activity must be
There needs to be a far stronger watch on naked short selling that is clearly a major issue in the current market. Investors should have full transparency to what's going on within the markets they invest their money in. The entire world has their eyes on the US Financial system at the moment. The result of the lack of oversight and control has put extreme distrust in the American financial

Summary
The purpose of this Notice is to notify member firms of the upcoming nomination and election process to fill vacancies on FINRA’s Regional Committees. The Regional Committees play an important part of informing FINRA’s regulatory programs by, among other things, alerting FINRA to industry trends that could present regulatory concerns, and consulting with FINRA on proposed policies and
I am writing to oppose restrictions on leveraged and inverse funds. Both of those funds allow investors to engage in investment strategies that is already allowed in an efficient manner. For example, Regulation T margin and portfolio margin offered by brokers already allows significant leverage and an inverse fund could be implemented by shorting the underlying security. What both leveraged
As an investor I oppose restrictions on usage of publicly traded leveraged and inverse ETFs. I use them in limited quantities when I see an opportunity to boost my returns in the short term. I do understand the heightened risks these instruments carry, and I take full responsibility for possible losses that I may incur when using these types of ETFs. Leveraged and inverse ETFs are important tools
