I should be able to choose my own investment
I oppose limitations on my investments in leveraged and inverse funds. I want to be able to invest freely.
I do not want to be regulated in any way when it comes to buying leveraged and inverse funds.
I do not nor condone of any testing of etfs for trading !!
I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to everyone not just the privileged.
Dear sirs, I am a small investor, however I should still have the right to purchase inverse funds. If big players have the ability to short the market, I should be able to buy inverse funds as well. Please reconsider.
As an investor, we have right to choose any public issued investments by assessing the risks ourselves.
Hi, I don't feel like I should be going through these steps. Especially if I outsource my trades to an advisor.
I'm outraged that the government regulators think they need to limit my access to leveraged and inverse funds. These are public investments and should be available to all investors. Allowing only wealthy investors to use them to invest and hedge portfolios is unfair and gives wealthy people more advantages over small investors. My broker already makes sure I know the risks so additional requirements aren't necessary.
Hello, I disagree with the proposed regulation. I believe it is up to the investor to risk his/her assets in the way he or she sees fit. Whether it makes the investing world safer or not, perhaps a lesson taught through experience rather than regulation would be a better way of allowing investors to discover what they should or should not invest in. I view these investment avenues as ways to hedge against a market that I believe to be overheating and at the end of its bull market. Investors are limited in the ways they can hedge please don't restrict us further.
