I am writing to oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. As a first-generation investor, leveraged and inverse funds have helped me to secure a more secure future for me and my family. My first investment was small, and has helped us buy our first home, pay off debt, pay for quality education and child care, and care for my aging parents between paying for elder care and covering lost wages from taking time off of work. I do not want to lose my right to invest for the future of my family, and of those I seek to help with the profits of those investments.
I have been an investor for more then 40 years and own all types of risk assets including stock and bond ETFs, mutual funds, individual equities in every industry, highly risky and rarely successful option trades and leverages and short funds.
Its up to investors and brokers to fulfill educational requirements around suitability and best interests around investing decisions. These are safer than using long call options with more time decay and timing risk.
Hello: I oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. I use leveraged and inverse funds to hedge my investments. I like to be able to use leveraged and inverse funds freely, please do not put any restrictions on using these funds. Thank you for your considerations.
Access to leveraged and inverse funds is integral to hedging market risks with a reasonable portion of my portfolio. These products are not too complex for intelligent adults to understand and use as part of their portfolio. Please do not restrict access to these type of investment vehicles
Let us make our own decisions what to do with our money. Investors could do (and doing it) research and make educated investment choices without regulator looking over our shoulder. Financial firms already has number of disclosures for every type of the investments...
I would like to have the freedom to buy leveraged and inverse funds as a individual investor.
Rule #22-08 is a bad rule for the nation.
I oppose the restrictions to the trading rights for investment.
