I oppose restrictions to my right to invest!!
You violate peoples Constitutional rights all the time while protecting large investors and firms. The retail investor has just as much rights as the Billionaires. Your jobs and future livelihood are at stake.
Please stop making barriers to the free flow of capital in the USA, which is based in free markets rule. Your political support will loose their power come November 2022.
No one should be prevented from investing their funds as they chose. The restrictions you are imposing will create a further marginalized population.
Due to I got the Exemption Index ID of National Futures Association (NFA) as a person and as a CPO, I already know about the risk to reward relationship associated to invest in ETF's such as BITO among others. Then I want to be free to diversify my investments.
Please don't limit investment options for investors. While some may not understand how complex products work, those of us who do find these particularly beneficial at times. For example, since the beginning of 2022 both equity and bond markets have stumbled while interest rates have increased. Because of inverse treasury funds like TBX and TBF, interest rate tracking funds like PFIX, and inverse market funds like SH (inverse of the SP 500), I have been able to maintain and grow my family's portfolio.
Comments: As someone with the CFA designation that uses triple leveraged funds for their personal investment strategy, I do not feel that this rule should be passed. In economic downturns line were are experiencing, the use of triple leverage funds can be extremely advantageous for investors that understand the risks associated with such investments and track their investment performance. Disclosures around these funds provide adequate warning to investors using them for aggressive strategies and act as a means of discouragement for less seasoned investors.
No we need to be able to purchase crypto currency and ETFs just like stocks
I would like the freedom of investment, is our money we are spending and we have the right to do what we can to find way to provide more income for our family
