I believe the vast majority of investors understand the risks of being in the market. Leveraged investments and those for accredited investors provided needed capital and are valuable tools in managing risk in a portfolio. Investors do not
To Whom it May Concern,

A free market allows all people the opportunity to invest in the same equities - whether you are a millionaire or a recent high school graduate with your first part time job.
