Had I not been able to invest in PROSHARES TRUST II my net worth would be less. I see NO difference investing in it compared to stocks that fluctuate such as TESLA,RIVIAN ETC. WE DON'T NEED ANY MORE GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS.
I believe that individual investors should not be restricted from the purchase or sale of inverse or leveraged funds. Individual investors should be able to choose the publicly listed securities that are right for their risk and return objectives without going through extra steps such as income/asset verification, knowledge tests, or any other special process.
I, not regulators, should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. They help me protect my investments or seek enhanced returns.
I do not want to lose the opportunity to trade in leveraged funds, as it has helped me enormously in hedging.
It is our own GOD given RIGHT
Quit trying to steal aNd get real jobs
To Whom It May Concern, After learning of the proposed regulations to limit access to leveraged and inverse funds, I am reaching out to make the following known: I believe that as an investor it is my sole responsibility to understand the funds I am investing in. I use leveraged funds as an important part of my portfolio to hedge against certain risks. I do not believe it is right that access to leveraged or inverse funds be limited to accredited (high net worth) investors. Leveraged funds are a minor, but important part of my own portfolio currently, and I am not an accredited investor.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks.
All individuals should be allowed to trade any and all investment vehicles they wish to.
