I think that my ability to invest in these leveraged products should not be restricted or regulated by the government.
I oppose limitations on my investments. I have the right to invest my money how I feel without these limitations.
Regulators should NOT be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I am very opposed to any scrutiny or special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities. I am capable of understanding investments I make and their risks. I do not need, and strongly oppose, regulators requiring that these measures be imposed on me.
Pleasr respect my right to choose my investments.
Your intrusion into our lives is well beyond the benefit of our citizens and communities, stop trying to control our lives.
I have invested in leveraged and inverse ETF products for several years. The ETF providers and the brokerage companies I have used have always provided full easy to understand information on these funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not want regulators to impose any measures to prevent me from buying and selling them or to cause me to have to jump through hoops in order to make these trades.
I oppose the limitations on my ability to buy leveraged or inverse funds. Get out of my life! Quit trying to control me. Big government is bad for everyone, especially Biden's Socialist government.
Please stop trying to control people or tell them what to do or not to. We are mature adults who know what they are doing. Life drinking and gambling, if its legal, you should not stop people from doing it.
Comments: I am a small, (60K portfolio) non-commercial investor, approaching retirement, and I believe FINRA's attempts to require enhancements to current rules on Leveraged and Inverse ETFs (L&I Funds) unnecessarily limits investor choice. Such ETFs are an essential part of my portfolio. FINRA adoption of a more restrictive stance on non-commercial investors ability to buy these ETFs would damage my ability to secure adequate funds for my retirement. I am well aware of the risks of such ETFs.
I am a disabled/ Retired Law Enforcement Officer. The fact stable coin yeilds are being taken away slowly WILL result in me going bankrupt and having to move away from my children.
The policies are ruining lives
