Dear FINRA,
I strongly object to RN #22-08 for the following reasons:
1) I believe I have the right to be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family.
FINRA seeks to render some public investments unavailable to the public, and to grant access only to the privileged. It's not FINRA's place to decide whether I should or shouldn't be granted access to leveraged and inverse funds.
I think it is important for individual investors to have access to leverage and inverse funds because for certain individuals these are products that are useful at times
The public should be allowed to freely choose their investments. There should be no tests, no regulation by the government. For heavens sake, the government as it exists is based on lies and special interest groups. We the people do not want you to control our investment decisions or require regulatory qualification to be in the world of finance. These regulations just serve to make investing less accessible and less transparent to people. l Do not regulate.
We not regulators should be able to choose the public
investments that are right for us and our family. We should be able to make our own decisions for our benefits and not anymore else.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.
I am very concerned about the possible restriction to trade leveraged and inverse funds. This is an important part of my investment strategy as they help me to hedge my investments using less money. They are a limited, but critical and strategic part of my overall investment portfolio. Its not difficult to understand the risks involved especially for the way I am using it. Without them, I would need to hedge my portfolio by trading futures and options. I have done this in the past, and through my experience, had found them much more difficult to manage.
Myself not regulators should 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.
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”) a proposed rule change to expand TRACE reporting requirements to trades in U.S. dollar-denominated foreign sovereign debt securities.
I think the Statement "Buyer Beware" should be warning enough for investors. I don't believe anyone should have the authority to restrict where I invest my money.
I am strongly opposed to the restrictions proposed by FINRA.
Leveraged and inverse funds are an important strategy and one of the few instruments available that allow retail investors to hedge and/or protect their portfolios and assets. Current market conditions are a prime example of the benefits of leveraged funds, wherein certain aspects of my portfolio have gained in value due over the past month, while the S&P 500 has declined more than 10%. This is due to my ability to utilize inverse leveraged funds as protection against such events.
I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST. PLEASE DO NOT BLOCK PEOPLE FROM INVESTING IN INVERSE FUNDS. IT'S MY MONEY AFTER ALL SO I SHOULD BE ABLE TO INVEST IT ANYWAY I WANT.
