Dear Sirs and Madams: As a former managing director of a broker dealer I can tell you with certainty that regulations for leveraged and inverse ETFs are long past due. Although I have over 45 years of investment experience I was also ill informed about their characteristics and basically lost all of the money in my IRA which I luckily could afford. Now that I understand them I am profiting
I would appreciate FINRA supporting people like me who wish to trade ETFs and leveraged ETFs especially in IRA accounts where we can control the gains and losses in our accounts. In my case I have over 50 years experience in the markets and would prefer making my own decisions without interference from outside sources. Shorts arent allowed in some accounts and the only way to protect holdings in
I would like to be free to invest in what I deem appropriate for me, my investment and retirement goals, and my risk tolerance. I do not need someone who knows nothing about me, my personal goals or my personal risk tolerance to attempt to determine what is or is not appropriate. Nor do I need someone else to tell me what they think I may or may not understand. In short, I do not need someone
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.

Addition to previous submission today. Cryptos were clearly described by Buffet and Munger recently!!!! The term Derivatives is showing up in publications describing stocks. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE NO NO. Derivatives is a wild card word. It can mean anything! Certainly not a legal definition of a stocks worth. Please veto it before it becomes accepted. Arnie Allison
My investments are my choice. I dont get to buy or sell stocks in advance before passing legislation that effects stock value like you elected officials. Leave my options alone. If you dont understand triple leverage and inverse funds, thats not a reason to limit me from using them.
