I am writing in opposition to limiting, and/or curtailing, access to certain complex trades. Limiting access to the general public promotes a preferred class and thus discriminates. Mandating qualifications further promulgates class distinction, in the guise of evaluating financial literacy. It perpetuates an old-boy culture.
Free and open trade should be supported; not denied. Individual
As a small business owner and someone who enjoys directing my own investments, I want to comment on the proposed regulation of leveraged and inverse funds. Leveraged funds make up a small, but important part, of my investment strategy. These funds are not difficult to understand nor are their potential risks and benefits. My investment strategy is conservative but leveraged funds give me an
I know what I'm doing with regard to my own investments. I should not have to jump through regulatory hoops to invest my own hard-earned money without significant regulation like "the big boys."
I shouldn't have to go through special processes like passing a test or demonstrating a high net worth to buy what I want with my own money. Ever. This sort of
WE OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO OUR RIGHT TO INVEST. We 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. We shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. We fully
Dear FINRA Members, As well as you may know, in Argentina we have serious limitations or restrictions to manage our own surplus money. And that's the reason why I thought your country was a bit different from ours, because you have the freedom (as in many other things) to invest in whatever you want to. Now, reading about all these "rules" "tests" , etc only brings me bad
The reasons I am opposed at any further regulations that restrict my ability to trade in securities of my choice is that it would limit my ability to offset the volatility of many of the securities I choose to trade. I am able to determine my risk levels and leverage levels when trading and I oppose any special process you may be considering, such as tests. I do not need to be hampered by any
To Whom it may concern:

investments that are right for myself and my family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
It is very important to me that I be allowed to manage my money myself.
I have the right to share my views,
AND YOU the regulators are required to take my comments into
As a private investor, I am concerned that the proposed regulations in Notice #22-08 will unnecessarily limit the ability of private investors to effectively manage diverse portfolios.
Legal, publicly available investments should be available to all investors and not unnecessarily limited.
Investment product suppliers and managers should be required to provide extensive information to allow
There are many reasons this would be an abomination, but I will just go into one. Since the beginning of the NYSE, people have been fighting to democratize the market and make it accessible to all. It is in everyone's best interest that the market is accessible to all. This rule change would destroy all the work to make the financial markets accessible to all, regardless of status, race,
I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. Like any normal thinking person, I am capable of understanding what leveraged and inverse funds can do as well as their risks. I do not need your restrictive limitations imposed on me.
I not you regulators should be able to choose the public
