Leveraged and inverse funds are very important for my investment strategies in order to protect my capital from adverse movement of financial markets.
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest. Public investments should be available to all of us. I do not want any regulations to prevent me from investing in leveraged or inverse funds. My decisions are critical to the health of my portfolio. I have been trading many years. There are already enough regulations in every part of my life. More regulation takes away my freedom to trade as I see for my family.
I have previously submitted my thoughts but want to take a minute to reiterate them. Leveraged and inverse funds play a very important role in my personal investments along with our corporate investment strategy for clients. When used by professionals, for clients who understand them, they are very useful tools for actually reducing risk and enhancing returns. This should be left to the free markets where all parties should have the ability and freedom to invest in what they they choose without any additional oversight or limits.
Want to make the most impact? 1st Stop insider trading in house, senate beyond. The fact that you don't address this issue shows who and what you care about. 2nd End share buy backs that inflate perceived value of corp. 3rd Have independently chosen board members on corporate boards and make them accountable to their share holders. Thanks for your time, but I doubt that you listen and WE as a country will definitely realize the impact of the greed, graft, and corruption that you allow to persist.
It's my money I am investing. Not yours. Why do you have a say in what I invest in? How is this protecting me? I understand all risk involved.
Governmental intervention has unpredictable and unhealthy consequences for investors such as myself. I strongly oppose restrictions placed on buying leveraged or inverse funds. Investors, such as myself must be allowed to make decisions that will permit us (me) to leverage various commodities in market downturns as well as upturns. Similarly, we (I) must be allowed to buy leveraged or inverse equity or bond funds in up and down markets. These types of funds are critical to my investment strategy and my financial survival.
I have been investing in leveraged etfs for years and have found them to be perfect for my risk tolerance. I do not feel it is at all appropriate for you to revoke my right to do so.
Aren't we living in the land of the free and the home of the brave?? Why, then, are you pushing for regulations that would limit certain people from purchasing leveraged and inverse funds? Why are you creating a system with those who have these privileges and those who are refused these privileges. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. Let there be freedom in the stock market. Don't put restrictions on what people can invest in. Let them make their own choices. Please stop this in its tracks. Thank you!
Hello: I am adamantly opposed to restricting access to any currently available investment product. This is an arbitrary, unnecessary regulation that is not in the investing publics interest. I should be able to choose the investments available to me and not have them restricted to privileged investors.
I, not regulators, should be able to choose the public investments that are right for my and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
