With all due respect I totally disagree.
The markets are not "rigged".
Certainly journalists, analysts and people in brokerage houses express their opinions, probably sometimes even before and after selling/ buying/ recommending.
We are over regulated as it is, we certainly dont need more.
No one holds a gun to an investor's head and tells him/her to buy or sell a stock. This is a choice the investors make. When I panic sold my DELL last Aug 31st it was NO ONE's fault but mine. When I have the "courage" to buy some in a downdraft and I see it go up in the next few months NO ONE gets the credit but moi. (Well maybe Kemble...VBG)
And margin: although it has given me grief, it has also given me more DELL shares than I could have ever hoped for without it. I gave Fidelity over $3,000 in interest last year. But I made well over ten times that amount in appreciation. Well used, margin is fine. Like any other credit card it must be used with caution.

Best wishes anyway!
Good luck to all of us tomorrow.
