This is unfair for ppl who can long term invest for fair priced etfs which is composite of high priced stocks , so dont be selective in who can invest and let middle class income ppl also make a money by investing
What are you trying to do anyway take people's rights away to buy stocks on the open market? Do you want to make it so just the insiders and the politicians get first choice and buyers like me get the left-over crumbs!
FIRNA reps: I invest in leveraged etfs and inverse etfs, along with mutual funds and individual stocks. All these investment vehicles allow me to invest as I wish depending on my needs. The consumers should have more vehicles to invest, never less.
Stop with your new world order crap. I'll need to invest in inverse funds to maintain and grow my assets when you guys decide to crash the stock market with your higher Fed funds rates, supply disruptions, etc.
These are important financial instruments designed to protect investment dollars, not waste them. The geared and levered products provide important alternatives to options and other derivatives that are traded like stocks and with improved liquidity. I support their continued use and recommend no increased limitations on their use.
I have been investing in the stock market since the early eighties, and have I ever conveyed to you my displeasure in how you run things!! Absolutely not!! You will not infringe upon my right to buy and sell in the FREE market!!!

Inverse funds are important to my investment strategy.
Since I dont short individual stocks, this allows me a convenient way of doing so with less risk.
I am capable of understanding the concepts and the risks involved.
Please keep this option available to me.
I have been doing my own investing for about 20 years now and do not need any "governmental" advise on the types and amounts of stocks to choose. Please stay out of my life and keep your meathooks out of my pockets.
Do not limit my ability to purchase leveraged and inverse funds. You have done nothing to stop senators and congresspeople from purchasing or selling stocks when they have inside information, so DO NOT limit the rest of us. This would be ridiculous.
Dear FINRA Committee members, It is this commenter's genuine hope that short selling is banned as it serves counter-purpose to the two primary functions of the Stock Market, Capital Allotment, and Price Discovery. As such an act would likely remove the need for FINRA, and it is unjust to request this forum to consider self-destruction. Instead, this comment hopes to serve as a basic appeal
