On September 5, 2023, Rodney Ferruso consented to the entry of findings that he refused to appear for on-the-record testimony requested by FINRA. FINRA requested testimony in connection with its investigation into the allegations by his firm that he had engaged in short-term trading of certain mutual funds in his customer accounts.
Mutual funds are not suitable for short-term trading due to their sales “loads,” or fees associated with the purchase or sale of mutual fund shares. These fees make mutual funds unsuitable for short-term trading.
