There is no easier way to say this, this is pure overreach. I am a grown consenting adult, investing my own money, there is absolutely no reason for the government to dictate what securities I can or cannot purchase. These kinds of measures are insulting at best and reinforce the wealth gap at the worst. "Back to work pleb, you aren't good enough to invest here". Is this the message you want to send? That you want the poor to stay poor? That's what a wealth gate looks like to me.
I completely OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST in leveraged or inverse products. Public investment should be available to public, not just the privileged. Im capable of understanding and trading inverse and leveraged products..dont need special restrictions on public products not fair. They are very important part of my portfolio in protecting or hedging against market uncertainty or recessionary risk. So I strongly urge or plead not to have this public product restricted. Thanks.
We neen NO more government agencies telling us free Americans what we can and cannot do.
In fact lets try this,,,you pay for what youve already got on the books first with NO new taxes, then come talk about any new agencies or programs you want,,,HA,,,you cant, in fact you have to eliminate 1/2 the agencies and give aways you already have,,,so pound sand your socialism aint going to cut it,,,wait till November you morons
It's my money. Let me do what I want with it.
It's a publicly available ETF. The ETF should simply have a disclaimer that describes how there is decay (declining value) do to the options component and that it can be dangerous to hold for long periods of time if not monitored well.
Please keep your politically tainted hands off my investments.
There is no reason a government body should have visibility to private law abiding citizens investments. It is a direct infringement of the 4th amendment on an individuals right to privacy. The only reason a government wants would to be use it as a political weapon.
To have access to that information an individual should be suspected or charged with a crime and a search warrant issued for access to those records.
Comments: Leveraged and inverse ETFs allow small investors the ability to invest in a variety of Stocks we don't have the resources to invest in otherwise.
Please don't handicap small investors any more than they already are
Please do not limit these investment opportunities. They are an important part of my portfolio and the average investor should have access the same funds that other high net worth investors have.
