I am fully aware of the risks of investing in leveraged and inverse funds. I am on a long-term strategy and plan to continue to invest in these ETFs in the future. Please understand that is unfair to prevent me from investing in these ETFs in the future at my own risk.
Banning traders from buying or trading these ETF's while they are already holding them would cause catastrophic damage to most traders who are currently in positions they cannot exit. This is something that needs MUCH more time to be considered a good plan.
Please do not limit the ability of investors to participate in their own financial and investment decisions. It is always clear that investment carries risk, and leveraged and inverse funds are no different. I strongly oppose any limitation on investors ability to determine their own investment plan.

As a not-for-profit membership organization, FINRA is committed to openness and engagement with our member firms regarding our financial plans. In that spirit, we are writing to update you on FINRA’s current financial situation and our path forward for funding FINRA’s mission of protecting investors and promoting market integrity while facilitating vibrant capital markets. As we have stated in several prior financial reports and communications, this path forward must eventually include an increase in member fees.
These regulations should have been in place 30 years ago. It is absurd to me that it took the public gaining awareness of short manipulation, and planned bankruptcy of many great companies by Hedge Funds to even get this on the table.
Summary
FINRA reminds firms to evaluate their exposure to LIBOR (formerly, the London Interbank Offered Rate), and review their preparedness to manage LIBOR’s phase-out. To understand how firms are preparing for that phase-out, FINRA surveyed a representative cross-section of member firms, including some firms with significant trading volume or positions in LIBOR-linked securities.

A self-directed individual retirement account (IRA) is an IRA held by a custodian that allows investment in a broader set of assets than most IRA custodians permit. Custodians for self-directed IRAs may allow investors to invest retirement funds in “alternative assets” that have unique risks, including a lack of information and liquidity—and the risk of fraud.
