[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.
To my knowledge, public investments are available to all of the public, not just the privileged and I oppose your restrictions on my right to invest. I am aware that all investments come with a certain degree of risk, especially when you combine normal risk with the lack of transparency, T2 trading platform, recent rumors of Market Manipulation, Dark Pools, Fails to Deliver etc. I selectively choose to invest in companies which I believe will have profitable earnings and favorable returns. Your interference upon my right to invest are unjustified.
Allow poor people struggling to make ends meet to freely trade Crypto without being taxed again. This help will go a long way to wage war against joblessness , daily crimes ; decongest prison & promote safe society. Allow the poor to survive & live better .
I take extreme exception to your proposal to limit my access to buying any particular class of public funds. This is part of my investment strategy; I employ it as a hedge in my portfolio. It does not require special training or skills to understand the potential risks and benefits of using leveraged and inverse funds. It seems more likely to me that this is just another ploy of the privileged to manipulate and control the free market system, thus preventing people like me from protecting our investments and possibly capitalizing on volatile trends in the economy.
I oppose this
I oppose any restrictions to my right to invest in leveraged stock funds. We are fully capable of reading and understanding the risks and opportunities of these type of funds and don't need further regulations by public self-serving bureaucrats. Please leave us alone!
I should be able to choose investments that are right for me and my family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.
It
I am capable if making my own decisions about my investments. Please do not limit my ability yo plan for my future
I have been investing in ETF's for the past 20 years, and I have made significant profits toward my retirement from these particular funds. Removing the ability for the retail investor to hold and trade these funds would severely unduly limit the average investor from profiting the same as the establishment and professional traders, which would be discriminatory and and unfair. We are not stupid and we do not need big brother fed with its oafish hands muddling around in our pockets and affecting our ability to make money & retire well.
Greetings FINRA:
It is my opinion that the risks & rewards of leveraged investments are known and desired by those who invest in said vehicles. Please avoid your aggressive regulatory measures!
