Report Brings Attention to Opportunities and Risks Presented by the Technology
WASHINGTON— FINRA released today a new report, Quantum Computing and the Implications for the Securities Industry. While practical quantum computing remains nascent, the research examines how the emerging technology that relies on quantum mechanics to perform complex calculations could significantly alter the
My only comment is that if an individual is on a margin account, why should they be governed by the PDT rule. Or better yet, why does this rule still exist. It is the most un-American regulation Ive ever heard of. That your organization has the audacity to try and tell hardworking Americans what how much they must have in order to day trade. This is an obvious sham, and does not exist to protect
FINRA’s Eighth Annual Createathon and internal hackathon premieres October 16-19 at the University of Shady Grove in Rockville. This year’s event is powered by the theme “Level Up,” reflecting the importance of continually expanding our expertise and knowledge.
There is an obvious lack of regulation when it comes to short positions. The regulation that exists does not offer enough punishment to deter unlawful actions. The threat of jail time would be a much better deterrent for fraudulent activity as compared to fines. Isn't this how it works for everyone, or just the lower classes? There are two currencies; money and time. Criminals can make their
Leveraged and inverse funds are important part of my family investment strategies. We, not regulators, should make the decision about public investments.

Many investors dont have the millions or billions of dollars to invest in start ups or big private equity deals like all the multi billionaires, VCs andPE firms do and by limiting the average retail investor to only buy proven mutual funds that are a basket of stocks you

Especially in 2022, diversity and inclusion is extremely important, allowing all people to learn and make decisions that are best for themselves, not regulators.
Leveraged and inverse funds are an important
Please do not restrict the ability of retail customers to invest in Complex Products. In a market downturn, inverse ETFs/ETPs are some of the easiest ways to hedge against falling market. Placing what I view to be artificial restrictions on these types of products will hinder retail customers ability to simply survive a large-scale market correction. I am invested in a very small quantity of
Funding is extremely challenging. Additional regulations are not the answer. I deal with "sophisticated" high net worth investors every day for fundraising for my biotech company. Most have less knowledge about pharmaceuticals than my special needs seven-year old son. These individuals would undoubtedly pass the proposed test, but they still won't have a clue.

I have been investing for many years and it is just un-american to try to stop normal up standing American citizens from the right to make their own investment decisions. It is important that each individual have the right to choose the best investments for their family. All investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged super-rich who then take advantage of the
