I do not want to have to go through any special process if i want to trade inverse or leveraged instruments. I am capable of understanding these funds and their risks
Let freedom ring! Stop being tyrants! Our founding fathers would be ashamed of you!
As an investor, I have the right to decide which public equities, bonds and funds I want to buy. FINRA should not have the ability to upend that principle, regulators should not have the power to decide what public securities you can and cannot invest in.
To whom it may concern,
During this economy trying time, it is of critical importance to let people choose what they would like to invest.
Without this freedom, US stock market is going to lose its ground to competing stock markets across the globe!!
Every investor should have the right to purchase whatever they want. Risk is solely the responsibility of the investor and not a regulatory body in a democratic and capitalistic society. Further action such as these are further proof that the US financial system is rigged in favor for the elite and top 1%.

As so many Americans have finally figured out, the government does not serve the people, it serves the wealthy and the corporations. It would be a pity if you were to use your power to further disenfranchise the public from the
I am not a child or mentally deficient so I find it disturbing that FINRA regulators feel that I need a nanny to oversee my financial decisions. Wealthy investors have access to advanced financial instruments not accessible to regular investors like myself. Leveraged and inverse funds somewhat even the playing field for retail investors. When the market becomes volatile I can hedge my investments
