Please don't regulate how we invest, so we can prosper and maybe help others.
It is not fair that we all should have the same rights to spend our money the way we want when or lose it's our decision
These are products that are used by sophisticated investors who understand the risks and are willing to take them as part of their overall strategy for their reward.
Restricting access or imposing onerous criteria to meet before an investor can trade/invest in them goes against every principle of a free-market economy.
I need to be able to choose the investments that are right for my financial situation.
Some of my investments are hedges to help protect my positions from unexpected losses.
I do not need more regulations to "protect me" as I feel I do my own adequate research and due diligence.
We currently have more than enough regulation of securities by federal and state authorities. Any reasonable person is capable of making their choice of investments. Investment options should be available for all Americans, not just the rich or those deemed appropriate or those qualifying under special approval. Is this not part of the American dream?
I don't need special training or permission to choose which investments are right for me. That's for me to choose as part of my free will.
Stop this that easy
I oppose limitations on your ability to buy the Funds
I want to maintain your current freedom to invest in public securities of your
choosing.
NO ONE SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT OR POWER TO TELL ME HOW OR WHAT I SHOULD INVEST IN. STOP THIS INSANITY.
