FINRA published its 2024 FINRA Annual Regulatory Oversight Report, formerly known as the Report on FINRA’s Examination and Risk Monitoring Program. The report provides member firms with key insights and observations from recent activities of FINRA’s regulatory operations to use in strengthening their compliance programs.
It always seems that FINRA's only job is to help large institutions to keep their advantages over retail traders. You already make it disadvantages to trade options and futures. Now you want to add leveraged ETFs to that list. How about focusing on things that are really a problem such as the advantages given to market makers and dealers through paid order flow. It is clear that FINRA
I do not consider necessary that a client that is investing in complex products (such as a structured note) needs to have an options agreement in place due to the fact that the client is not executing options trades, it is the issuer of the product. Instead I consider that if the client understands the product (risks associated, potential return/loss, rights and limitations, liquidity, etc.) in
I am a teacher (read: not rich by any means), however I have a total of 4 degrees. I have 2 undergrad degrees and 2 masters. I am more than capable of managing my own investments. I am a fully capable adult who can figure out the realm of investments and I should be able to invest my money as I see fit.

Leveraged and inverse funds are an important of investing for everyday Americans as well as for the privileged. On this May 5th sell off day...a tv talking blamed leveraged funds in part, but the day before had a very large gain and no credit was given to them at all.

Thank you for taking time to read my comment. My biggest concern with this is what's next? The volatility of these products can be large, but there are plenty of very high volume company stocks with even more volatility then these 3x ETFs.

I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for ME and MY family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I am educated, and responsible, well aware of risks.
I shouldn't have to go through any special processlike passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds
I believe that restrictions on the ability to invest in inverse and leverage funds should not be made. I use triple leveraged funds to get greater returns/market exposure while maintaining some free cash in my portfolio to invest.
