Dear SEC, How dare you go after these instruments. Focus more of your energy on companies which do insider trading and when you do give fines they cannot be less than the money made. Inverse funds and short selling and leveraged funds give some advantages to average investors that institutional investors dont need. Please reconsider thiese "rules".

First, there is no rule that can be put in place where the repurcussions are fines. Fines are a cost of doing business. Period. The street always makes far more money illegally then they pay in fines. 150% minimum fines. Now, that said, self reporting is a joke. We have the systems and technology available to ensure trades are marked correctly, that they are delivered adequately, not
Before ranked arbitrator lists are due to the Director under Rule 12402(d) or Rule 12403(c), the Director may combine separate but related claims into one arbitration. Once a panel has been appointed, the panel may reconsider the Director's decision upon motion of a party.
