Haven't been investing very Long, but what I'm seeing seems like it's all in favor of the big company's and not for the individual investor. I like what you want to do with the rule changes, but talking about it, isn't good enough. NEED TO SEE ACTION, from all levels.
I’ll keep it short (no pun intended) and simple: as a retail investor, all I am asking for is a fair, level playing field. Currently, we are not getting that. Please adjust and enforce the rules so all retail investors receive the same timely information and opportunity as the Hedge Funds. Thank you!
