It is outrageous that regulators want to treat the average investor like a second class citizen. Why do we need to take tests in order to buy an ETF?? This is America and we should be able to invest as we see fit. We should have the same access to the same products as anyone else.
Why should you need a degree in finance in order to buy an ETF? Similar to owning a gold ETF instead of owning gold

No we need to be able to purchase crypto currency and ETFs just like stocks
Dear Finra,
Leveraged funds are an important part of my investment strategy. Please do not make them difficult to access.
Yes, I understand and think most understand that the daily reset on leveraged funds means that an investor won't automatically earn the multiple of the index.
That said, they are tax efficient relative to futures for those of us who must invest in taxable brokerage
I undertsand the volatility and how they work. IMHO, They are safer then many speculative growth funds, meme stocks, and crypto.
I manage my own portfolio. This allows me to adjust my investments when our leaders make stupid and ill advised decisions which is happening now! We do not need more regulations or restrictions! We need less!
My concern not only applies to stock trading but also to the new crypto currency trading and investing!
The creators are doing a good job making it transparent and understandable. It is
I've been trading and investing for nearly ten years. This is not the first time I've seen proposed restrictions to leverage ETF trading. I'm disappointed to see this coming up again. The last time it appeared was around the same time the crypto market was starting. Given the size, mess, and potential for fraud and chaos that crypto is presenting I find it infuriating
I don't think it's right. We should, as the people of this democracy, be able to purchase anything to do with stock trading, including crypto. This is not right!!!!
Things like crypto and stocks should be available to the public it not only helps the companies but the markets as well. Everyone should have the right to invest in what they believe.
Unfair Restrictions are put in place to keep the majority of investors from gaining larger profits. There is no reason to invest in the stock market if shareholders dont truly own the stocks they hold or are held back during peak performance periods. Millions of people missed out on buying Bitcoin years ago. Once the Bito shares became public some people including myself, could invest in crypto
