Summary
FINRA requests comment on a proposal to expand TRACE reporting requirements to collect information on trades in foreign sovereign debt securities that are U.S. dollar-denominated. Issuance activity in these debt securities has accelerated in recent years and FINRA believes the proposal would provide important regulatory information on an increasingly active segment of the market.

I have been investing for a while and run a systematic program of investing. Leveraged ETFs are very important to me and to my investing approach. I understand the risks and realize that there is a higher risk to any investment that involves leverage and this one is no different.
I do not want a third party evaluating my capability of managing these funds, and certainly do not want one
I use leveraged funds in a an investing plan in which I am fully aware of risks. The government should NOT place any restrictions on the choices of individual investors as incorporating leveraged investments into my plan is my choice and I am under no obligation to do so. If the government desires to meddle in personal affairs, how about educating people about financial programs, investing and
In a country where tobacco, alcohol, predatory loans and various forms of gambling are freely available and offten pushed toward the most vulnerable members of society with the blessing of our government your investor restrictions seem laughable. To say the USG actually cares about small investors is ridiculous. If you want to help, then set up programs in schools to educate children in personal
Short interest need to not be self reported. There should be investigations every day or at least weekly to see how these hedge funds and market makers are influencing stock prices. Naked shorting is a disgusting practice that has caused economic crashes in the past. We need to learn from our past mistakes.

I oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I shouldn't have to go through any special processes like passing a test because I can invest. I do NOT need any additional measures imposed on me. Try putting some better restrictions on congress, the house and house speaker'
For those who have an FPL account, is there a way in which we can view where the broker is getting the variable interest rate used? I have noticed is a fraction of what is reported from sources like fintel.io. Seems like there are many behind the scenes deals going on to allow for manipulation. If stocks are loaned out, then the interest rate should be able to have some reference of where the
Short positions should be reported daily. Any attempts by institutional investors to drive stock prices up/down (smear campaigns, fake DD, Spam/Ads) should result in fines that actually impact the guilty parties, not just a tiny percent of the profit from the illicit activities. There needs to be actual penalties for breaking the rules, or the so-called "free market" will ever truly
Please put these new rules in place. We need transparency in our markets, especially with regard to short selling and dark pool activity. Naked shorting, short ladder attacks, spoofing, as well as online intimidation is taking place on stocks like AMC and many others for that matter and it just isn’t fair to the American people. Prime brokers like Citadel should not be permitted to reroute retail
