I think a free market economy should not need censure of normal accepted commerce activity. Voted against. Here is why:
I think that regulatory overreach ought not occur. It's a free market economy we all participate in, not a private club for special interest groups with an agenda. Anyone with money should be able to transact funds in exchange for securities the market has demonstrated
Young investors like me have very good understanding about investments. Leveraged and inverse funds help protects us during volatility of stocks. Covid-19 pandemic stock crash proved this. So, please allow trading without restrictions.
More oversight and transparency is needed for short interest, options, and derivative products. It is not acceptable that there is a maximum threshold for short interest set at 140% where in actuality it could be much much higher. It also appears that there is no enforcement of false reporting. There is evidence that Citadel has call option contract out larger than shares existed while retail
The rules of Finra need to be changed. They may have been created to help reduce the predatory practices of unscrupulous brokers and protect individuals from such practices, and there may be a need to protect individuals from themselves, but we each bear the responsibility of knowing what we are doing at any given time. I have traded stocks, options, futures and forex. It is a lifelong process,
Comments: I would be against limiting access to the leveraged indexes. These provide both diversity for small investors, while providing outsized returns at a lower cost than mutual funds. The TQQQ grew from $19 in March 2020 to $200 by Jan 2021 before a 2/1 split. It was up 1200% from Sept 2016 to Sept 2021.

America is a country who always advocated equal rights. I should get right to invest my money the way I want. Stocks are also risky when big companies like BABA, NetFlix ets drop more than 70% from their all time high. People can loose the money when they trade Options of stocks. I regulators are really concerned about the risk of retail traders then the should regulate - - the market fall/rise
This is an insane idea to add more regulation to Leverage ETFs. From a practical perspective, think of how much higher risk there is involved investing in a single stock like Tesla, Netflix, Nvidia vs. a leveraged ETF like SSO or UPRO that is allocated over hundreds of stocks. Would you ever consider limiting how much of a single stock an individual can own? Of course not, yet that is a far
Remove market makers status from all institutions as this seems to be a direct conflict of interest. Ensure that short positions are monitored and reported daily. Prosecute market manipulators including those that pay main stream media and ensure that this also comes with jail time. Make FTDS are a thing of the past.

Naked shorts, synthetic shorts, dark pools, all must go. Where is the fairness in trading on t Wall Street if the retail inverstors are at a disadvantage?
