Nothing shocking - a little surprising, definitely disturbing.

The lack of regulation is the most surprising thing, and the lack of interest from the US federal government to do much about it is disturbing.



It's a heavily regulated space, nowadays.

Dodd-Frank changed it all and spawned many other regs + groups

"Passed as a response to the Great Recession, it brought the most significant changes to financial regulation in the United States since the regulatory reform that followed the Great Depression"

Isn't surprising + disturbing pretty much the very definition of shocking? Can we agree on mildly shocking? :-)
