As long as we understand the risk stay In your lane
Good morning,
I would appreciate the ability to continue trading leveraged and inverse funds as part of my investment portfolio. I know the risks well and have made educated decisions about my investments. I would like to continue to do so. They have been valuable hedges in volatile times and have enhanced returns for me. I am the best person to make the decisions about which investments belong in my my portfolio to help my family reach its investment goals.
The elite and the privileged should not be the only ones with access to these funds and strategies.
I should be allowed to invest freely in a free market. Restrictions like this inhibit my ability to be able to invest reliably in funds I believe to be sound.
Please dont privilege big institutions by limiting access to levered ETFs only to them. Individuals can make their own decisions whether it is levered ETFs or options or futures. Please stop hurting individuals in your effort to help them.
I oppose any effort to restrict my ability to invest in leveraged or inverse funds. There are already too many regulations restricting the ability of individual investors to fully participate in our economy. The opportunity for financial success should not be limited to the wealthy. FINRA should protect us all from fraud but NOT from reasonable risks.
Simply said. Restricting investment vehicles as considered is unfair to smaller investors. It's my choice.
Please, give me people the right of investment.
I should be able to invest in any listed stock, MF or ETF that is available. I do not want politicians or folks appointed by politicians to decide what is a good investment for me. I want to make that decision
I oppose any restrictions to my right to invest in leveraged funds and would like to keep on investing in the leveraged funds and I understand the risks associated with it.
I not regulators should be able to choose the public
investments that are right for me. Public investments, including leveraged funds should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
I shouldn't have to go through any special process
like passing a test before you can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I should not be paying regulator restricted money making companies any of extra money to be able to invest in funds I deem appropriate to invest.
