Regulators should not be arbitrarily harming non wealthy investors in their investment decisions. All investors are capable to understand the risks of their investments and these new regulations harm investors, particularly those with smaller net worths.
I oppose restrictions on my right to invest in leveraged or inverse funds. These funds are important compositions of my portfolio. It makes investment more rewarding for many of us. Without these funds, I will have to invest in stock options instead when I want to use leverage. The restriction on my rights makes it unfair for me in comparison with investment agencies who have more resources, more information, and more professional techniques.
It is absolutely essential that everyone be free to select any and all investments they wish to participate in without restrictions. Investing should never be reserved for just privileged individuals or be subject to special tests or other requirements. It has been widely accepted over the years that there are substantial risks involved with all investments. It is a learning process involving much research and a bit of trial and error, but a basic freedom none the less.
I do not wish to be subjected to any limitation to my ability to buy leveraged and inverse funds. This is my money and if I lose it then it is my business and not that of a government or any other regulatory body. Stay out of it.
I use these products to hedge investments in current down markets.
The investors should have the rights and options to choose how to invest. Regulations should protect the interest of investors and holders of the ETF regardless of leveraged or non-leveraged. I oppose to close the leveraged ETFs.
It is more important than ever for the average investor to have access to leveraged products. Especially with inflation rising, these products can provide an amazing hedge.
I oppose any restrictions on my freedom to invest my money.
[REDACTED] I earn my money and I don't want to be told how I can invest it. The truth is that no one bothers to understand who you are, how to harm your career and your personal financial situation, etc. That can change. People need to fight back against their loss of financial freedom, freedom of speech, and the other freedoms our ancestors literally died so that we could have.
