Stop this law. I want to be able to invest freely in what I want
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged, even if those investments are leveraged.
In my opinion they're incredibly important for retirees who need to ride out bear markets while using leverage to raise cash for living expenses.
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.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. They help me seek enhanced returns when I use them as a limited part of my overall portfolio.
I am a young investor with a growing income but not a lot to invest right now. I use leveraged ETFs as part of a long-term strategy to gain more exposure to the US stock market now, when I don't have a lot to invest.
This allows me to, in the long term, reduce my risk from Sequence of Returns risk. This is a considered strategy I am pursuing, not a short-sighted gamble. Please allow low-net worth investors to continue investing in products such as UPRO (3X S&P 500) and TMF (3X long-term treasuries).
If govt want to block certain funds lets cancel the taxes on profits from by stocks.
Its retail investors risk to buy whatever they want
Investment vehicles should not be limited to the wealthy or accredited. Access should be available to everyone. I do not support the proposed restrictions on access to leveraged and inverse funds. Please keep the markets open to all.
Please allow us to invest freely with our choices.
I am an individual investor and use leveraged investments as part of my investment strategy. I have not found them to present risks that jeopardize my investments when managed properly in proportion and with balance to my other investments. They play an important part in my overall portfolio strategy balancing risk and reward. I fully understand and manage the risks they present as well as any other risks that exist in other securities in my portfolio.
It is my choice to invest my money. If Congress and the Senate eliminate their ability to trade stocks, options and any other financial instruments. I will gladly give up my right to trade inverse funds.
So lets start there. Let me know when that bill has been passed
Dave
I not regulators should be able to choose the public
investments that are right for us and our family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.
I use leveraged and inverse ETFs
Successfully all the time and would be negatively impacted if such a proposal is enacted.
Do not take away my rights to invest as I wish.
Thank you.
