As an individual we should have the right to exercise the daily leveraged and intervein ETF'S in our own portfolios as we are aware of the risk. We have a strong understanding of the characteristics and risks L & T funds etc. That we are monitoring the L & T funds.

The Anti-Money Laundering section of the 2022 Report on FINRA’s Risk Monitoring and Examination Activities (the Report) informs member firms’ compliance programs by providing annual insights from FINRA’s ongoing regulatory operations, including (1) relevant regulatory obligations and related considerations, (2) exam findings and effective practices, and (3) additional resources.
I very much oppose these proposed restrictions. Any and every stock issue carries risks inherent to the individual stock, and these are no different. It is up to the investor to educate and investigate the risk and determine whether it fits within their own risk profile. This is not for the regulatory industry to define, unless the information and prospectus is giving false and/or misleading
Individual investors should be free to determine their own level of acceptable risk. The responsibility should be on those offering securities to clearly explain the risks and in individual investors to accept those risks. Individual investors should not be required to pass tests or meet a bar of net worth in order to purchase publicly available securities.
I am not a full time investor. I feel very confident that the risks of leveraged funds are not difficult to understand. I feel it is no different with ordinary stocks or funds.

Let me invest how I want to, leverage is a powerful strategy that I understand the risk of. I'm 19 years old I have the ability to be extremely risk tolerant yet don't have a large net worth. Don't gut my Roth IRA and my savings no matter how much risk I intend to take on. Thanks.
Lowering the Pattern Day Trader (PDT) minimum threshold from $25,000 to $2,000 would create a more inclusive and equitable trading environment, enabling retail investors with smaller accounts to participate in day trading without unnecessary financial barriers. The current $25,000 requirement disproportionately favors wealthy individuals and institutions, effectively excluding everyday traders
As long as we understand the risks with Leveraged Funds, why should they be regulated? Most brokers require you to check off warnings, so they know, you understand the risks. I use leveraged funds as a large part of my portfolio and also understand the risk v reward.
As a retail investor I should have the ability to invest in what I like
Leveraged and inverse funds are important part of risk management. These funds make it possible to use a small percentage of capital to risk manage the other side of a trade. There are plenty of SEC / FINRA regulation as well as documentation on investments to understand the risk. Should investors ignore reading the documents of any and all investments that is the investors choice.
I use leveraged and non-traditional investments to diversify and take measured risks in my portfolio. Individual investors are only risking their own funds. Individual investors have never posed a structural risk to the economy. No broker is pushing non-traditional or leveraged investments onto their customers, so the only people using them are those that have made the decision of their own will
