Pamela Davis , I should be able to purchase as well to whatever stocks I deem to acquire. I should not have to be tested per se or read certain materials to purchase. This is controlling and manipulative ways to not allow person who are not stock regulators to purchase stock. This is a travesty to say the least.
I think everyone should have the opportunity to invest in a way that is advantageous to themselves. Not just the big banks and hedge funds!
Its my money. Let me invest how I please
It is very unfortunate that our freedoms are under attack. I am 77 yrs old and remember a freer country. I should be able to decide what type of investment is right for me, my right should not be decided by some bureaucrat who does not know me.
Inverse and leveraged ETFs are an essential tool for traders to profit in dynamic markets. In these times, with all the economic uncertainty and potential volatility that lies ahead, removing these tools would be to disadvantage traders at an incredibly inopportune time.
I should be able to invest based on what I am able to invest and where I choose to invest it. There is no need for a special process for this. I can make my own risk assessment based on my earnings etc. Many of the funds I use as a hedge against a market crash in order to protect my earnings. It makes no sense to remove these types of investments. When used within your individual risk profile they can be helpful in maintaining and growing wealth for retirement.
The proposed regulatory changes are embarrassing - to FINRA and the SEC, and an insult to investors. I should be able to make investments in the targeted public securities that I believe are in my (and my family's) best interests without going through a special process. Further, given all the extreme movements in individual stocks recently (Gamestop exemplifies), why limit the initiative to the targeted securities? It's arbitrary to so limit, simply apply the ill-advised proposed restrictions to ALL SECURITIES (sarcasm intended).
Dear Sirs, As a US citizen, I believe I have the right to choose my own investment for myself and my own family using any public investment vessels. This right should come with no further official regulation to decide if I am qualified in knowledge or risk taking since it's my own decision based on my own due diligence. In the past 20 years, Fed kept relaxing credits in order to save different financial crisis including 2000 internet bubbles, 2018 sub-prime mortgage crisis, and 2020 pandemic beak down.
Governement fools OVEREACH as usual - back off - investors can handle the risk - we don't need "mommy and daddy" to stick their unwanted nose in . I have been investing since 1986 and understand accpet RISK.
